Enterprise IT leadership for the institutions Houston depends on.
Rouse Consulting Business Services Professional is a service-connected disabled veteran-owned firm delivering staff augmentation, virtual CIO leadership, enterprise application program management, and project-based IT services to state and local government and nonprofit organizations.
Engagements are scoped for public-sector procurement realities: transparent rates, documented deliverables, and leadership that stays through go-live.
Staff Augmentation
Vetted technologists — PMs, BAs, developers, analysts, and support engineers — placed on your team in weeks, not quarters. Cleared, coachable, and accountable to your delivery calendar.
Contract & contract-to-hire
Rapid bench mobilization
Public-sector rate transparency
Virtual CIO
Executive IT leadership without an executive line item. Roadmaps, budgets, governance, cybersecurity posture, and vendor accountability — reported in language your board and council understand.
Technology roadmap & budget
Governance & risk oversight
Vendor and contract strategy
Enterprise Applications PM
Manufacturing and planning systems — MRP, ERP, supply chain, production scheduling, and materials management — implemented end to end from requirements and design through shop-floor rollout, testing, and stabilization.
