About MAD-IS
Management, Analysis and Delivery in IT Services.
MAD-IS specializes in Interim IT Management and IT Portfolio & Project Management – for companies that view IT not as a cost center, but as a strategic lever. IT sovereignty (as a realistic process, not an absolute promise) and regulatory compliance (NIS2, ISO 27001) are integral parts of our approach.
What sets MAD-IS apart
| MAD-IS | Typical |
|---|---|
| Interim Manager – productive immediately, no onboarding overhead | “Send us the requirements first” |
| Flow instead of bottlenecks – less parallel, more finished | “Everything is priority 1” |
| Cost transparency – ROI, IRR, reporting for CFO/CEO | “I don’t have the numbers” |
| Portfolio alignment – prioritization by business value, feasibility and strategic relevance | Wish-list instead of strategy |
| IT sovereignty as an evaluation dimension – identify dependencies, assess options, implement the right degree | Promise absolute sovereignty – and fail to deliver |
| NIS2 / ISO 27001 – from analysis to certificate | “That’s legal’s job” |
| International experience, multilingual (DE / EN / PL) | Locally limited |
