Fractional Technical Operating Partner

A fractional technical operating partner. With a delivery team behind it.

Most fractional operating partners are one person. DevriX gives you senior technical operating leadership plus the team that executes it: revenue operations, data, web, and AI. Strategy and delivery from one partner, accountable to EBITDA, across the whole hold.

  • Senior operating leadership owned against EBITDA
  • An embedded team that builds and runs the plan
  • One accountable relationship across the hold

From a solo advisor to leadership and a team that builds.

Strategy and delivery. One partner. The whole hold.

The gap this fills

Technical operating leadership is the need. The options are poor.

Value creation now turns on the technology and revenue engine, but the partners who can lead that work rarely arrive with a team that can also build it. PE firms and portfolio companies are left choosing between three options that each fall short.

Coverage

What each option leaves out

  • O-01 · Option · Advisor

    Solo fractional advisor

    Can set the agenda but cannot build it. The plan is sound and the execution is still yours to source.

    → No delivery

  • O-02 · Option · Full-time hire

    Full-time technical hire

    Slow to find, expensive to keep, hard to justify for one portfolio company, and risky if the fit is wrong. Sees one company's data, with no read on relative performance.

    → No benchmark

  • O-03 · Option · Agency

    Single-function agency

    Delivers one slice and has no view of the whole revenue engine or the hold.

    → No whole view

The middle path

Operating-partner-level leadership and the delivery arm to act on it, from one accountable partner. The leadership sets the technical and revenue agenda against EBITDA. The team builds it. Nothing is lost between the two, because they are the same partner.

What it means in practice

Leadership and execution, not one or the other.

06

Parts of one engagement model: leadership, delivery, accountability, benchmark.

  1. Component 01

    Senior operating leadership

    A technical operating partner who sets the agenda across revenue operations, data, web, and AI, owns it against EBITDA, and reports to the board the way a full-time executive would, without the cost and commitment of one.

  2. Component 02

    An embedded delivery team

    Behind the leadership sits a senior team that builds and runs the plan: RevOps, data and reporting, platform and web, experimentation, and AI. The person who scopes the work delivers it, with no leverage pyramid where partners plan and junior staff execute.

  3. Component 03

    One accountable relationship

    Strategy and delivery from a single partner, so the agenda and the build never fall out of sync, and there is no cold handoff to a vendor who was not in the room.

  4. Component 04

    One model, not a deck or a lone executive

    Strategic leadership, RevOps, data and analytics, technology, AI and automation, and hands-on execution in one engagement model. Not a traditional consulting engagement or a standalone fractional executive.

  5. Component 05

    An external benchmark a single hire cannot build

    Working across many companies, the partner brings external benchmarks, pattern recognition, and broader operating perspective, a strategic advantage no single-company hire can offer.

  6. Component 06

    The delivery arm is the proof

    A solo operator cannot show the second layer behind the leadership. DevriX can. This is the core of the positioning, and the rest of the PE pillar is where it is demonstrated.

Engagement models

Model I

Digital Value Creation Assessment

$15,000 to $25,000 fixed

A fixed-scope read across revenue, technology, data, and AI maturity, with a prioritized roadmap tied to EBITDA. Converts directly into an operating-partner retainer. The low-commitment front door.

Model II

Operating partner retainer

Ongoing

The ongoing relationship that runs the value creation plan across the hold, with leadership and the embedded delivery team together.

Model III

Portfolio-wide program

From $40,000 / month (platform tier)

A fund-level engagement with preferred pricing across the portfolio, with a consistent playbook and one reporting format across companies.

Why DevriX

The one fractional operating partner that also builds.

01

Strategy and execution from one partner

Advisors recommend and leave. Single-function vendors build one slice. A full-time hire is slow and expensive. DevriX provides the leadership and the delivery arm together.

02

Senior leadership, an embedded team, no pyramid

Senior operating leadership backed by an embedded execution team gives the firm direct access to experienced specialists, not account managers. The person who scopes the work delivers it, accountable to EBITDA outcomes, with no leverage pyramid where senior people sell and juniors deliver.

03

Built for the hold

DevriX pioneered the embedded operating-unit retainer model in our space in 2015: a standing team that stays with a company for years. That continuity, institutional memory through management changes and a plan run quarter after quarter, maps almost exactly onto the PE hold.

04

Technical depth

Senior product, data, growth, and platform engineers with 15 years in market, founded and led by Mario Peshev, 5x CEO with two exits, advisor to 400+ organizations, and author of MBA Disrupted. The team has trained engineering and product groups at VMware, SAP, CERN, and others. A HubSpot partner since 2016, DevriX builds on platforms that scale past $100M in revenue.

  • We lead the agenda and deliver it, not just advise
  • We stay across the hold, not one project
  • We connect RevOps, data, web, and AI in one plan
  • We report against EBITDA, in one format
