Fractional CTO and CIO Leadership in Kansas City.
Get an experienced technology executive on your leadership team for a monthly retainer instead of a full time salary. Strategy, budget, vendors, security, and AI, owned by someone accountable.
Executive Technology Leadership, Part Time.
A fractional CTO or CIO is a senior technology leader who works with your business part time, on a monthly retainer. You get roadmap, budget, vendor, and security decisions made by someone with executive experience, without the cost of a full time hire.
Inovura's fractional leadership is led by founder Rithik Madhanna, who has worked in IT since 2016 and has led technology for multi-state healthcare organizations, from infrastructure and security to compliance and AI agents. Because Inovura also provides managed IT, strategy and execution stay with one accountable partner.

AI Without a Plan
Staff use AI tools on company data while leadership wonders where AI could actually help.

Book a free callWhat does a fractional CTO do?
A fractional CTO owns your technology strategy on a part time basis: roadmap and budget, architecture, vendor selection, security and compliance oversight, and AI planning, working directly with your leadership team.
What is the difference between a fractional CTO and a fractional CIO?
A CTO usually focuses on technology products and architecture, while a CIO focuses on internal systems, operations, and governance. Most small and mid sized businesses need a blend of both, and our fractional role covers both.
How is this different from managed IT?
Managed IT runs and supports your systems day to day. Fractional CTO and CIO leadership decides where those systems should go. Inovura offers both, together or separately.
Can a fractional CTO help us adopt AI?
Yes. We assess where AI saves real time, set acceptable use policies and data controls, and roll out tools and agents with security and human review built in.
