TAC EaaS delivers faster, better and more affordable access to the information, advice, and professional development your IT organization needs.

The EaaS model uses a vetted network of hundreds of practicing experts with real-world success credentials in information technology strategy, leadership, management, operations and implementation. TAC EaaS does away with vendor bias, scalability issues, and restrictions on the use of information. You own the work we do for you.

Decision support services, in the form of CPA firms and outside legal counsel, have long supported the Finance and Legal organizations by advising them on tactical and strategic decisions facing the enterprise. Until the establishment of The Advisory Council, IT organizations did not have a similar service that they could cost-effectively retain.

TAC engages an Expert Network to provide IT organizations with enterprise-wide access to actionable advice for resolving the IT challenges and issues you face. The Expert Network is comprised of hundreds of Experts, covering the full range of IT subjects; helping your organization to access key expertise whenever you need it (see bios of a selection of our Experts). Our Experts average more than 20 years of practical experience, and provide our clients with a personal perspective to help address their unique needs.
