— CIOaaS — The Model
More Than SaaS. More Than Consulting.
A True Technology Partnership.
In the age of AI, off-the-shelf software and traditional consulting can't solve what makes your business unique. SEAD's Chief Information Officer as a Service model delivers the leadership, engineering talent, and infrastructure of an entire technology department — as one embedded partner.
The brightest human intelligence, paired with the most modern artificial intelligence and technology tools, solving custom problems that no magic AI wand or SaaS platform ever will.

— Why CIOaaS
Enterprise-Level Control.
SMB Agility.
The traditional SaaS model and outside consulting have lost value as talent and technology are being filtered down. SEAD replaces fragmented vendors with a single technology partner who operates like a member of your C-Suite.

— How We Connect
Integration Types & Philosophy
No matter where your data lives, SEAD has a method to bring it into Co-Wright. Our philosophy is simple: connect to everything, own nothing, and give you full visibility.
Integration Types
Philosophy
API
SEAD's CIOaaS creates API endpoints within its Co-Wright Platform automatically to integrate with any system and all of its underlying customization so long as it is supported by the vendor's API.
Direct Database / ODBC Connection
SEAD's CIOaaS will create custom ETL using a combination of SQL and Python to bring data directly into the Co-Wright Single-Portal-of-Truth Platform. We only need access privileges to be granted.
SFTP
SEAD can download files and load via SFTP/FTP directly into the platform via scheduled and event listener ETL processes.
Screen Scrape
For platforms without connections, SEAD can create robot scrapes to download files or physically extract data from websites given website and vendor allows for such processes.
Be the System of Record Itself
SEAD can physically be the system of record if the system and process does not exist already in your company's technology ecosystem or if you want to transfer off of an outdated system. Saving you additional platform costs.

— How We Engage
Three Phases to Transformation
SEAD's engagement is a structured journey — not a one-time project. Each phase builds on the last, moving your organization from disparate systems to a unified, scalable technology ecosystem.
1
Assess & Launch
Understand & Connect
We take the time to understand your business needs and make initial connections or creations of platforms needed to operate your business in their independent states. Your 90-day proof of concept lives here.
2
Enhance
Connect & Streamline
Start connecting your systems and streamlining operations. This is where disparate data becomes a single portal of truth and your teams begin to see the full picture for the first time.
3
Scale
Optimize & Grow
Provide best-in-practice service and construction to set up your internal ecosystem to scale as your business scales — powered by the efficiencies and insights gained in Phases 1 and 2.
— Proven Across Industries
From Non-Profits to Hedge Funds
We've invested millions solving the same underlying issue — disparate data — across virtually every industry.
We Partner Selectively
for Maximum Impact
Because every engagement goes deep, SEAD only takes a limited number of CIOaaS clients each quarter. If you're serious about scaling intelligently, let's talk.
