Infrastructure decisions are expensive.
Accreditation is hard.
The wrong architecture can cost millions.
Cybaris Consulting provides architecture-level judgment to programs in the Intelligence federal mission space — before the money is spent, not after.

THE GAP
Federal programs don't fail for lack of engineers. They fail at the decisions above the engineering.
The modernization roadmap that ignores the accreditation timeline. The procurement that locks in an architecture nobody questioned. The technical volume that reads well but can't be built. These failures are expensive, they're slow to surface, and by the time they do, the engineers executing the plan can't fix them — because the problem was never execution.
That's the gap I fill. I'm the technical advisor program leadership brings in when the architecture has to be right the first time: design decisions, security boundaries, modernization sequencing, and the white papers that win the work.
HOW I WORK WITH PROGRAMS
Infrastructure Modernization Assessment
A fixed-scope engagement, typically two to four weeks. I assess your current environment — on-prem, private cloud, hybrid — .accreditation constraints, cloud security posture, and budget reality, and deliver a findings-and-roadmap document your program can execute and defend. You get an independent technical opinion with no hardware to sell and no hours to extend.
Best for: programs facing a recapitalization decision, an aging environment, or a modernization mandate without a plan.
Capture & Solution Architecture
White papers, technical volumes, and solution architectures for primes pursuing federal work — written by someone who has also had to build what was promised. My white-papered solutions have led directly to multimillion-dollar contract awards, because they're engineered to survive both evaluation and delivery.
Best for: primes and teaming partners who need cleared, senior technical depth on a pursuit.
Fractional Technical Advisor
Ongoing architect-level judgment on retainer — forward architecture, accreditation strategy, vendor and procurement decisions, engineering oversight — for programs that need a chief engineer's perspective but can't justify a full-time billet. This is the role I've played for program leadership for years: the trusted second opinion before the expensive decision.
Best for: program offices and small primes that need senior technical counsel on call.
SELECTED RESULTS
$1M+ saved — Revised an inherited architecture design on a federal program, cutting over $1M from procurement while meeting every technical, security, and mission requirement.
90% faster recovery — Modernized critical infrastructure on a globally distributed classified network, reducing restoration times by 90% and the patching cycle by 60%.
Multimillion-dollar awards — Developed and presented white-papered solutions during capture that led directly to multimillion-dollar, multi-year contract wins.
