If I write to you as a company

I write to companies whose services and websites fit what I offer, and offer them my work. For this I process your business contact data (name, role, business e-mail address and phone number) taken from your legal notice (Impressum) and your publicly accessible website. The legal basis is my legitimate interest in initiating business (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Right to object: You can object to the processing of your data for initiating business at any time, without giving reasons (Art. 21(2) GDPR). A short reply to my e-mail saying "No" is enough.

I do not sell your data and do not pass it to third parties for their own purposes. The only recipients are service providers working on my behalf: my e-mail provider and, for research and drafts, artificial-intelligence services, including providers based in the USA.

I keep your data for at most 12 months after the last contact and then delete it. If you have objected, only your e-mail address stays on a block list so that I do not write to you again.

You have the right of access, rectification, erasure and restriction of processing. You can also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority; in Bavaria this is the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (BayLDA, Ansbach). Contact: the e-mail address above.

Senior Advisory Retainer

For teams that need strong technical judgement repeatedly over time, but do not need or do not want a full-time senior controls hire.

Discuss the retainer

From EUR 4,500 per month · month-to-month · minimum 5 days per month

Phase 2 support

Best when the direction is clear and disciplined follow-through matters

The retainer is for teams that already know what they are trying to build or repair, but need recurring senior judgement on architecture, root cause, integration, and rollout decisions.

It works particularly well after the diagnostic, but also for companies that already understand the technical direction and simply need a strong sparring partner for the months where control engineering decisions have outsized leverage.

Rafał Noga leading a technical architecture review at a whiteboard — This is recurring senior judgement for important control decisions, not a vague advisory label.

What the retainer is good for

Architecture and design reviews

Review control structure, estimator design, model assumptions, vendor proposals, and integration choices before they get expensive.

Technical decision support

Use the retainer when the team needs a senior technical sparring partner for difficult tradeoffs, root-cause debates, and delivery sequencing.

Implementation guidance

Support internal teams or suppliers during rollout, validation, tuning, and handover without forcing a large project wrapper around every issue.

Continuity after the diagnostic

The retainer is the natural Phase 2 when the diagnostic identified a clear path and the team now needs disciplined execution support.

Typical ways clients use it

Light mode

A few focused review sessions each month, async Q&A, and targeted troubleshooting around a specific subsystem or project milestone.

Medium mode

Regular architecture work, recurring technical reviews, coordination with controls suppliers, and active support through implementation decisions.

Heavy mode

An intense phase where the internal team needs near-embedded senior support without committing to a permanent full-time role.

Need recurring senior support without a full-time hire?

A short call is enough to define whether the advisory retainer makes sense now, or whether the diagnostic should come first.
