Your Software Is Costing More Than You Think.
Most established businesses are spending hundreds of thousands a year on software that was built up tool by tool, renewal by renewal. Nobody questioned it. Until now. I find exactly where the money is going, cut what you don't need, and build what you do — in weeks, not months.

The Addiction
Most businesses don't have a software strategy. They have a software history. A decade of reactive purchases, auto-renewed contracts, and tools approved by whoever needed them at the time.
I've seen this pattern in every established business I've worked with.
Rent Forever
Every month you pay. Every year they raise the price. You can't leave because your entire operation is built around their system — and they know it. That's not software. That's a landlord who owns your data.
Dead Architecture
The platforms your team uses every day were built for a world before AI existed. Your team has built workarounds for the workarounds. You're paying enterprise prices to run a business that has outgrown the tool that was supposed to help it grow.
Locked In
Your data lives in their system, in their format, on their terms. They know switching feels impossible. That's exactly how they want it.
The Hidden Tax
Your SaaS spend is spread across 12 department budgets, 6 annual renewals, and a handful of expense reports nobody questions. Most businesses have no idea what their total number is until someone finally adds it up. When they do, it's rarely under £80k. Often it's over £150k. For software that covers maybe 20% of what you actually need.
Franken-Stack
One tool feeds into another, into another. Nobody fully understands how it all connects — because it was never designed. It just grew. Your sales team enters data in three places. Finance exports reports manually. IT spends half their time keeping duct tape in place. You're not behind on technology. You're behind on decisions.
No One Owns It
You have an IT Manager who keeps the lights on. You have department heads who bought their own tools. But nobody is sitting at the table making strategic technology decisions for the business. Every year, the problem gets a little more expensive and a little harder to fix. Until someone finally does something about it.
THE FIT
Who This Is For
I work with established businesses — typically 10 to 30 years old, £5M to £75M in revenue — that have grown through operational strength, not technology.
Companies where the MD still makes the technology decisions, or where nobody does. Where SaaS costs have crept up for a decade without anyone doing the full maths. Where a competitor is moving faster and the honest answer is: they have better systems.
If your finance director just pulled the software invoice report and it was an uncomfortable number — we should talk.
If you've tried to hire a CTO and it hasn't worked, or you're not ready to commit £150k to a full-time hire — we should talk.
If your operations feel like a £5M company even though you're turning over £20M — we should talk.
THE MOMENT
The Cost of Custom Software Just Collapsed. Your Renewal Invoice Didn't.
What Just Happened
AI has fundamentally changed what custom software costs to build and how long it takes to deliver. What used to require a development team of six and six months now takes one person with the right tools a matter of weeks.
The businesses most exposed are those locked into expensive platforms they can't leave and can't justify renewing. The CFO is asking questions. The MD is frustrated. And the answer is no longer "this is just the cost of doing business."
Where I Come In
I've spent 19 years inside the enterprise software world — at Woolworths, Thomson Reuters, the Australian Government, and a dozen established businesses in between. I've implemented the platforms your business runs on, which means I know exactly where they're costing you money and how to replace them without disrupting your operations.
I now combine that experience with AI-accelerated development to do what no agency can match: audit what to cut, build the replacement, migrate your data, and hand you a system you own outright — delivered in weeks, not months. No subscriptions on the other side. No lock-in. No vendor to negotiate with at renewal time.
THE RESPONSE
How It Works. No Surprises.
No retainers until you've seen the savings. No surprises. Every step is designed so you can walk away — until you don't want to.
Software Review Call
FreeA 45-minute conversation — no pitch, no agenda. I want to understand your current software situation, what it costs, and what it's failing to do. If I can't find meaningful savings, I'll tell you straight and you'll walk away with a clearer picture of your stack at no cost.
Software Review
£6,750A one-week deep-dive into your entire software estate. I interview your team, audit every active subscription, map every workflow, and find exactly where the money is going. You receive a written report with your total software spend, projected 3-year savings, what to cut immediately, what to replace, and a clear ROI model. This report is yours whether you work with me further or not. Most clients cover the cost of the review in the first month of changes they make from it alone.
SaaS Detox Sprint
Priced on findingsBased on the Software Review findings, I build your custom replacement. Fixed price, fixed scope, delivered in 4–6 weeks. You get a system built specifically for how your business actually works — not a configuration of someone else's platform. Zero subscriptions on the other side. You own it outright. Priced at 10% of your projected 3-year savings, so the numbers make sense before we start.
19 Years Inside the Platforms Your Business Runs On.
I've worked inside Woolworths, Thomson Reuters, the Australian Government, Breville, and SUEZ — implementing and optimising the same enterprise platforms that established businesses rely on. That experience means I don't just know how to build replacements. I know exactly what breaks, what's worth keeping, and what to walk away from.

For established businesses that need senior technology leadership without committing to a £150k+ full-time hire. I join your senior team on a structured basis — attending key meetings, owning the technology roadmap, and making the technical calls your MD shouldn't have to make. When we decide something needs to be built, I build it myself. Strategy and execution. One person. No handoff delays.

THE FILTER
This Isn't for Everyone.
I work with a small number of clients at any time, and I'm selective about who I take on. This is not the right fit if:
- — You're looking for the cheapest option. I'm not it, and I won't pretend to be.
- — You need someone to manage a team of developers. I work directly, not through layers.
- — You want a six-month strategy document with no delivery attached. Everything I produce ships.
- — You're a startup that hasn't proven the business model yet. My background is in established operations, and that's where I add the most value.
If you're an established business with real revenue, real software costs, and a real decision-maker who's ready to act — I want to hear from you.
A bit about me
Adrian Barkus
Fractional CTO · Enterprise Architect
I've spent 19 years solving the technology problems that quietly drain companies dry. From cutting $3.5M in SaaS costs in 40 days, to architecting the systems that enabled a $155M acquisition — I've seen what broken tech costs, and exactly how to fix it. Now I do it faster than ever, using AI-accelerated development to turn 6-month builds into 4-week sprints.
Connect on LinkedInThe Questions I Get Asked Most
We already have an IT team. Why would we need you?+
Your IT team keeps the lights on. That's their job and they're good at it. What they don't have is the strategic mandate to challenge your entire software estate, the enterprise architecture experience to redesign it, or the AI-accelerated development speed to rebuild it in weeks. I work alongside your team — not instead of them.
How do you justify the cost of the Software Review?+
The Software Review costs £6,750. Every client so far has identified savings that exceed that within the first year — typically by a factor of 10 or more. If I can't find meaningful savings in your software estate, I'll tell you in the first session and we stop there. You keep the findings. No further obligation.
Can you really build a replacement system in 4–6 weeks?+
Yes — because I'm not building for a portfolio of clients or managing a team of contractors. I build solo, using AI-accelerated development tools that compress what used to take months into weeks. The scope is scoped tightly to what you actually use, not what your current vendor sells you. Smaller scope, faster delivery, lower cost.
What if we're locked into a long-term contract with our current vendors?+
That's the most common situation I walk into. We plan around your renewal dates. The Software Review maps every contract expiry, so we sequence the replacements to coincide with natural exit points. You stop paying the moment the contract ends — not a day later than necessary.
What happens to the system after you've built it? Are we dependent on you?+
No — and that's by design. Every system I build is fully documented, hosted in your own repository, and built on widely used modern technology. Any competent developer can maintain or extend it. I can also help you hire someone to take it over internally. My goal is to make you independent, not reliant on another vendor — including me.
How is this different from hiring a development agency?+
Three ways. Speed — agencies take 3–6 months, I deliver in 4–6 weeks. Cost — agencies quote £60k–£100k for what I deliver at a fraction of that. Accountability — with an agency you get account managers and handoffs. With me you get the same senior architect from the first call to the final handover. No middlemen, no surprises.
Don't Wait for Your Next Renewal.
Every week you delay is another week of exposure. A free Software Review takes 45 minutes. The findings could change what you spend on software for the next decade.
