Most SMEs don't need a full-time CIO — but they do need senior IT direction. KoruIT delivers the strategic thinking, governance and accountability that turns technology into a competitive advantage.
Not consulting for consulting's sake. Every service area is tied to a measurable business outcome — reduced risk, lower cost, or increased productivity.

Learn moreThere's a critical difference between IT support and IT strategy — and most NZ SMEs are stuck with only the former.
Your managed service provider keeps the lights on. But who's thinking about where your technology should be in three years? Who's ensuring your Microsoft 365 investment is actually delivering? Who's protecting you from the cybersecurity risks you don't yet know about?
"Most businesses use less than 30% of what they pay for in Microsoft 365 — and most have security gaps they don't know exist."
A structured, repeatable engagement model — not one-off consulting. Every client follows the same proven cycle, tailored to their business.
A deep dive into your business model, IT environment, security posture, costs and pain points. Outputs a Current State Report and quick-win opportunities.
A 12–36 month IT roadmap with prioritised initiatives, cost estimates and ROI justification. This becomes your single source of truth for all IT decisions.
Monthly or quarterly strategy sessions, progress tracking, vendor coordination and hands-on decision-making support. KoruIT stays in the room.
The roadmap evolves as your business changes. New risks are identified, opportunities added, and technology adapted. IT never becomes stagnant again.
Here's what KoruIT actually does — explained the way we'd describe it over coffee.
Someone who fixes things when they break. That's your IT support person or company — and they're great at keeping the lights on. But they're not paid to think about where your business is going, whether you're spending wisely, or whether a cyberattack would wipe you out tomorrow. That's a different job entirely.
We sit alongside your leadership team and ask the bigger questions. Are your technology tools actually helping your business grow? Are you paying for things you don't use? Do you have a plan — or are you just reacting to whatever breaks next? We help you answer those questions and make sure something actually gets done about it.
You don't need to be a tech company. We work with law firms, accounting practices, trades businesses, retailers, distributors — basically any business where technology plays a role (which is all of them). If you have a team, a computer, and a goal, we can work together. You don't need to understand IT. That's our job.
No. A full-time IT director costs $150,000+ a year. KoruIT gives you that same level of strategic thinking for a monthly fee that starts at $500. Most clients find they actually save money within the first few months — simply by cutting tools and subscriptions they didn't know they were paying for.
Keep them — they're doing a different job. KoruIT doesn't replace your IT support provider. Think of it this way: your IT company is the builder, KoruIT is the architect. The builder is great at their job, but someone still needs to draw the plans, manage the project and make sure you're not over-paying for materials. That's where we come in.
Most NZ businesses think they're too small to be targeted by cybercriminals. They're not — in fact, smaller businesses are often easier targets precisely because they haven't invested in protection. One phishing email, one ransomware attack, one data breach — and the costs can be devastating. The good news is that basic, affordable protection goes a very long way. We'll help you put it in place.
"You don't need to speak IT to work with KoruIT. You just need to want your business to run smarter, safer and more efficiently. We'll handle the rest."
Have a conversationKoruIT is not an MSP. It's not a large consulting firm. It sits precisely in the gap between them — delivering senior-level strategic thinking at a fraction of the cost of a full-time CIO.
Most IT consultants advise and walk away. KoruIT tracks progress, pushes decisions and drives outcomes. That's the difference.
Every recommendation is implementable, cost-aware and tailored to SME realities — not enterprise playbooks applied to smaller budgets.
Rather than introducing new complexity, KoruIT maximises your existing M365 investment — reducing cost and improving productivity simultaneously.
Senior strategic thinking, board-ready reporting and executive accountability — without the six-figure salary and employment overhead.
KoruIT tracks progress against the roadmap, coordinates vendors and pushes decisions to completion. The work actually gets done.
KoruIT was built on a simple observation: New Zealand SMEs are underserved by the IT advisory market. They can't afford a full-time CIO. They don't need a large consulting firm. And their MSP — as good as they may be — isn't built to think strategically on their behalf.
With over 20 years in the ICT industry — including senior IT leadership at Nestlé Health Science — KoruIT brings enterprise-grade strategic thinking to businesses that need it most: the SMEs that power the NZ economy.
The koru symbol represents new beginnings, growth and renewal. It's the right metaphor for what happens when a business finally gets its technology working for it, rather than against it.
Understanding how I naturally think and work helps you know what it's like to have me in your corner. These aren't just personality traits — they directly shape the way I approach every client engagement.
I naturally see how all the moving parts fit together — people, tools, timelines and priorities. When your IT environment feels chaotic, I find the order inside it.
For you: We'll coordinate your vendors, align your team, and sequence your roadmap so nothing falls through the cracks — even when things are complicated.
IT projects can be stressful. Decisions get stuck. Budgets are tight. We bring genuine enthusiasm and a can-do energy that keeps momentum going even when things get hard.
For you: Working with me won't feel like pulling teeth. Meetings have energy, progress feels rewarding, and your team actually looks forward to moving forward.
We love finding new angles on old problems. Where others see a standard IT issue, I often see a smarter way to solve it — one that saves money, time or complexity.
For you: You'll get creative solutions, not just cookie-cutter recommendations. We'll challenge assumptions and find approaches that fit your specific situation.
We genuinely see what makes each business — and each person — different. A law firm's IT needs are not the same as a trades business, and I never treat them as if they are.
For you: No templates, no one-size-fits-all advice. Every recommendation is shaped around your business, your people and your goals — not someone else's playbook.
We instinctively sort through complexity and spot the best path forward. We can see multiple futures and help you choose the one that serves your business best — avoiding the dead ends before you hit them.
For you: You'll never feel like you're making IT decisions in the dark. We map the landscape, weigh the options and give you a clear, confident direction.
Together, these strengths mean you get a team that sees the big picture and the details, brings energy and optimism to the work, treats your business as one-of-a-kind, and never stops looking for a smarter way forward.
