IP3 Consulting

Consultancy & Technical Advisory

In an ever-evolving business landscape, experienced and objective guidance is essential. With over 25 years of expertise across engineering, project management, and systems integration — including cybersecurity, maritime systems, RF technologies, and aeronautical solutions — I provide independent advisory support grounded in real-world experience.

Whether you’re an individual, a small business owner, C-level executive, or board member, I help you navigate complex technical and strategic decisions with confidence — offering clarity, validation and informed second opinions when the stakes are high.

Engagements are intentionally advisory in nature, focussed on identifying risks, uncovering blind spots, and stress-testing strategies before they are put into motion. When circumstances call for it, I can also work in a more hands-on, problem-solving capacity — particularly with startups, small businesses, and individuals — helping translate strategy into practical action without taking on long-term delivery or execution roles.

My consultancy approach emphasizes:

• Independent Perspective: Objective evaluations that cut through complexity — focusing on resilience, interoperability, and risk exposure rather than vendor or delivery bias.
• Cross-Disciplinary Insight: Combining engineering, cybersecurity and project experience to assess challenges from both technical and executive-level perspectives.
• Focused Advisory Support: High-level guidance provided on a short, flexible basis — acting as a sounding board or second opinion without taking on execution or delivery responsabilities.

I provide trusted, independent guidance — helping leaders navigate complexity with clarity and conviction.

Project Management Consulting

Project success relies on clarity, governance and informed decision-making. As a PMP-certified professional with over 18 years of experience, I provide independent project management consulting focused on oversight, risk awareness and strategic guidance rather than hands-on delivery.

Typical advisory support includes:

• Project Health & Governance Reviews: Independent assessment of scope, planning, risks, dependencies and decision structures to identify weaknesses and blind spots.
• Technical Informed Project Oversight: Leveraging engineering and cybersecurity background to challenge assumptions, validate approaches and anticipate integration or resilience issues
• Risk & Decision Support: Providing structured insight into technical, cybersecurity, regulatory and operational risks — supporting leadership in critical project decisions.

Many projects are technology-driven. While hands-on execution is handled by delivery teams, independent technical insight at project and governance level can significantly improve outcomes — particularly in complex or high-risk environments.

Technology Consulting

I help organizations assess, adopt, and adapt the most appropiate technologies for their operational context. Whether reviewing new initiatives or evaluating the integration of legacy infrastructure, I align technology choices with business goals to support informed decision-making and measurable value.

• System Integration: Independent review and guidance on integrating hardware, software and cloud platforms to improve interoperability and resilience.
• Digital Transformation: Advisory support for transitions toward modern, secure, and scalable environments — with a focus on risks, dependencies, and long-term fit.
• Engineering Insight: Applying an engineering background to validate technical assumptions and ensure solutions are realistic, robust, and fit for operational use.

Cybersecurity Consulting

Cybersecurity is no longer optional — it’s a strategic imperative. I provide independent guidance and advisory oversight to embed cybersecurity from earliest stages, whether reviewing new initiatives or strengthening existing security postures.

• Security by Design: Applying frameworks such as NIST, ISO/IEC 27001, and zero trust principles to assess architectures, challenge assumptions, and guide secure design decisions.
• Risk-Based Approach: Advising on proportionate security planning that prioritizes resilience, regulatory alignment, and operational continuity.
• Bridging the Gap: Translating technical and cybersecurity risks into business-relevant terms — enabling leadership to make informed, risk-aware decisions.

Maritime Technology Consulting

With hands-on experience in maritime technologies and port operations, I provide independent advisory support for digitalization and cybersecurity in the maritime sector — spanning onboard systems to shore-side infrastructure.

• Maritime Communications: Advisory expertise covering GMDSS, RADAR, AIS, and satellite-based systems.
• Port & VTS Projects: Independent guidance on vessel traffic services, coastal surveillance, and port security initiatives, including technical and cybersecurity considerations.
• Cyber Risk Readiness: Supporting maritime stakeholders in understanding and addressing cybersecurity requirements through risk-based assessment and guidance.
