Fractional CIO leadership and technology advisory for nonprofit cultural institutions and mission-driven organizations.

Most cultural institutions already have capable teams, systems, and vendors in place. What’s often missing is a clear structure for how technology decisions are made, coordinated, and sustained over time.

As environments grow, responsibility becomes distributed across departments while accountability remains unclear. Costs accumulate gradually. Systems become harder to align. Vendor relationships drift without centralized oversight. The result is operational complexity that no single team has the mandate, or the bandwidth, to address.

Provenance was built specifically for this environment. Drawing on direct experience leading technology inside a major cultural institution, we provide executive-level advisory support that brings clarity, structure, and alignment to complex technology environments.

This work operates through existing teams and vendors, adding long-term direction without disrupting day-to-day operations.

Engagements are structured as advisory partnerships, tailored to institutional priorities and leadership needs.
