Frequently asked questions

Before an architecture conversation.

How is this different from project consulting?

Fractional leadership maintains continuity across decisions, teams, and delivery cycles rather than producing one bounded recommendation.

Can CorLuca manage vendors or delivery partners?

CorLuca can establish architecture expectations, review designs and delivery evidence, coordinate decisions, and surface risk. Commercial or personnel management remains with the client unless separately defined.

What does the working cadence look like?

The cadence is shaped around decision forums, roadmap reviews, architecture reviews, executive communication, and defined availability.
