Talk to an independent advisor

No qualification call before the real conversation, and no obligation at the end of it. Tell us what you are trying to decide and we will tell you whether we can help, what the market looks like, and what we would want to know before recommending anything.

How to reach us

Three ways to start

All three reach the same person. The form is the fastest because it tells us what the conversation is about before it starts.

01

Book a call

Use the form at the bottom of this page. Tell us the platform or the problem, and roughly when a decision has to be made. We reply the same business day, and the first call runs about thirty minutes.

02

Call directly

Ring 0439 948 330 during Australian business hours, Melbourne time. If nobody answers we are on another call, so leave a message and we will call back.

03

Email

Write to conor.doherty@cctech.com.au. Attach the quote, the contract or the shortlist if you have one, and the reply will be specific rather than general.

Before you write

What to send, and what you do not need to have ready

Most people wait until they have a formal requirement before they call an advisor. That is usually the wrong order, because the requirement is the thing worth getting a second opinion on.

If you already have quotes or a shortlist

Send them. We read the commercial terms, not the feature list: the uplift, the minimum commitment, what is excluded from the licence and what leaving would cost. That review is where most of the value sits, and it takes us a day rather than a project.

Fastest to useful, send the paperwork

If you are earlier than that

A conversation is enough. What is not working now, who it affects, and what has to be true in twelve months. We will tell you what the market currently offers against that, which categories are worth looking at, and which of your assumptions we would test first.

Suits a decision that has not been scoped yet

What happens next

From first contact to a shortlist

We are vendor funded, so the whole process costs your business nothing.

01

You get in touch

By form, phone or email. Nothing is required beyond a sentence about what you are trying to decide.

02

A first conversation, about thirty minutes

We work out what you actually need, what you already own, and whether this is something we can help with. If it is not, we say so on that call.

03

We go to market on your behalf

We approach the providers that genuinely fit, using what we know about their current pricing and where they are prepared to move. You are not sitting through five vendor demonstrations to find that out.

04

You get a shortlist with the commercials attached

Two or three options, what each one costs across the whole contract, and where each one is weak. Written so it can go to a board without being rewritten.

05

You decide, and we stay involved

Through negotiation, implementation and the first renewal. Our commission does not change based on which option you pick.

Common questions

Questions people ask before they call

The things worth settling before a first conversation, answered here rather than on the call.

Is there any cost to this?

No. We are vendor funded, so the service costs your business nothing.

Will I be handed to a salesperson?

No. You speak to the advisor who does the work, and the same person stays with the engagement through negotiation and implementation.

Do you only work with certain vendors?

We look at the whole market rather than a fixed panel. Where the provider that suits you is one we are not funded by, we say so and you can approach them directly.

How quickly can you start?

A first conversation usually happens within a day or two. A shortlist with commercials attached typically takes one to two weeks, depending on how many providers need to quote.

What if we are already committed to a vendor?

That is still worth a conversation. A contract that is already signed can often be improved at renewal, and knowing what the market is doing changes how that renewal goes.

Where are you based?

Melbourne, and we work with organisations across Australia and New Zealand. Most of the work is done remotely, and we come on site where a migration warrants it.

We are vendor funded and completely free to your business. Always focused on the right outcome.
