Fractional delivery partner

For enterprise programmes that are stuck, over budget, or under-governed.

Company31 is the advisory and delivery vehicle of Manuel Re. Senior operator inside two weeks. Squad assembled around the job. Evidence of outcome within thirty days.

One page, seven questions, no email gate. Forwardable.

One offer, two modes

A fractional partner who leads the work and brings the people.

Most mid-market programmes stall for the same reason. There is no one senior enough to own the outcome end to end, and no one empowered to assemble the right squad around the problem. Company31 resolves both.

Mode 1

Rescue

For programmes already in trouble. Missed steerco, burning budget, vendor tension, unclear ownership, cyber or compliance pressure. A senior operator on the ground inside two weeks.

Thirty day outcome: a reset on scope, RAID, governance, cadence, sponsor confidence, and a credible path back to green.

How Rescue works
Mode 2

Build

For greenfield and expansion programmes. Cloud migration, data and AI enablement, business application rollouts, integration, and customer-facing digital product.

Manuel leads the programme personally and assembles the squad required to ship: business analysis, UX, development, testing, change, cyber.

How Build works
The Signal Cadence

The steerco update your board will actually believe.

Mode is how we engage. Technology is what we deliver. The Signal Cadence is how the sponsor knows it is working — a named discipline of written communication, thought-leadership artefacts, and named-role team assembly Manuel runs on every engagement. Weekly one-pager. Five-page steerco pack. Three-page monthly narrative the sponsor takes straight to the board.

Technology surface

Mode decides how we engage. Technology decides what we deliver.

Every engagement lands on a stack, and most serious programmes touch more than one of these six capability areas. Manuel assembles the squad around the surface the programme actually needs, not the surface a single vendor happens to sell.

01

Cloud & platforms

Hyperscale and hybrid estates. Landing zones, migration, cost control, resilience, and the governance layer around them.

02

Data & AI

Data platforms, analytics, machine learning, and generative AI enablement. Evidence before enthusiasm, and governance from day one.

03

Business applications

CRM, ERP, and line-of-business systems that have to work together under one operating model instead of three.

04

Integration & automation

APIs, event streams, workflow, and automation. The connective tissue between the apps, the data, and the humans doing the work.

05

Cyber & governance

Identity, posture, compliance, and risk. Essential Eight, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and the operating rhythm that keeps them honest once the auditor leaves.

06

Digital product & UX

Custom applications, portals, and customer-facing builds. Designed to the real constraints of the user and the process, shipped with the same governance as the rest of the programme.

Who this is for

COOs, CFOs, CIOs, and CEOs of mid-market organisations.

Typically 50 to 500 headcount. Professional services, health, member bodies, distribution, not-for-profit. Cloud-centred stack, vendor-agnostic. Programmes worth roughly half a million to five million dollars. Sydney-based. Engagements across Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Europe, and North America.

Not schools. Not solo founders. Not the pitch deck crowd. Organisations with real operations, real budget, and a real deadline.
