Situations we solve

The moments
that define a program.

Senior leaders bring Lazberger Corporation in when a program is at a consequential decision point — not when things are running smoothly. We work in the hard situations.

Program recovery

When delivery confidence disappears.

A troubled technology program rarely needs more reporting. It needs an independent view of what is actually happening, what can realistically be recovered and what executives need to do next.

Explore Program Recovery

Core expertise

Experience for
the hard parts.

Focused capability across technology and transformation leadership, including ERP-specific recovery and broader recovery of troubled technology programs. Each area is grounded in practical delivery.

Control through complexity

The structure behind a successful transformation must be clear, resilient and built for the real world.

01

ERP Decision Support and Recovery

Independent assessment of ERP strategy, implementation problems and vendor performance. Decision support for organisations at a critical ERP crossroads.

02

Troubled-Project and Program Recovery

Stabilising technology and business change initiatives that have lost direction, schedule or stakeholder confidence. Practical recovery, not optimistic reporting.

04

Technology Strategy and Roadmaps

Structured development of technology direction aligned to business objectives, with practical implementation pathways and sound investment logic.

05

Business Transformation

Senior leadership for significant business and technology change, bringing commercial discipline and delivery experience to complex organisational challenges.

06

Vendor Selection and Procurement

A disciplined, independent process for evaluating and selecting technology partners, platforms and managed services. Defensible decisions and well-structured contracts.

07

Program and Portfolio Leadership

Senior oversight across complex program portfolios where trade-offs, dependencies and accountability cannot be delegated.

09

Technology Due Diligence

Assessment of technology assets, obligations, technical debt and risk for commercial transactions, investment decisions or strategic review.

10

Independent Steering and Advisory Roles

Participation in steering committees, advisory boards and governance forums as an independent voice on technology program status and risk.

11

Fixed-Price Discovery Engagements

A structured, time-bounded engagement to clarify scope, options and decision criteria before committing to a larger program. Outcome-defined, not open-ended.

How we engage

The right shape
for the situation.

Every engagement starts with the work to be done, not a pre-set package. We can advise, lead or provide continuity — always with the level of involvement the situation demands.

An initial confidential consultation may be provided without charge to determine whether there is a genuine fit. We will not add you to a marketing list.

Start a conversation

Our approach

Less theatre.
More traction.

Senior leaders need an honest view and a practical way forward. Our approach is deliberately direct, independent and close to the work.

01

Listen

Start with the situation, not the solution.

We make time for context: what the organisation is trying to achieve, what has already been tried and where confidence has been lost.

02

See clearly

Make the real picture visible.

Independent perspective, direct conversations and disciplined analysis bring the important facts, risks and choices into the open.

03

Decide

Turn complexity into sound decisions.

We help leaders choose a practical path, with the commercial, technical and organisational implications understood.

04

Lead

Stay close enough to make it happen.

Advice only goes so far. We can lead, challenge and support the work through the moments that determine whether change sticks.

"Practical" is not a smaller ambition. It is the discipline to make progress in the real world.

The composition, availability and commercial arrangements for each associate engagement are confirmed specifically for the assignment. We do not maintain a standing team.

  • Enterprise and solution architecture

  • Cybersecurity and risk
