About Provenance

Our Approach

Provenance was founded to address a challenge common across cultural institutions: technology environments often grow faster than the structure required to manage them effectively.

Over time, systems become fragmented, vendor relationships drift, and operational complexity increases. The issue is rarely capability. More often, it is a lack of continuity, visibility, and long-term coordination.

Most technology consultants treat cultural institutions as one vertical among many. Provenance was built specifically for this sector, grounded in firsthand experience leading technology inside a major cultural institution.

Drawing on experience across museums, higher education, and SEC-regulated financial services, Provenance provides executive-level guidance to align systems, vendors, and technology investments with institutional priorities.

The goal is straightforward: reduce unnecessary complexity and ensure technology supports the mission rather than distracting from it.
