Have a senior voice in the room
Fractional CTO, board advisor and experienced with technical due diligence. Someone who has run networks, signed contracts and answered to leadership.
Having built and run networks for the last thirty years, I can tell you which things you already own are just fine, if the new project is worth doing and which parts of the network really do need attention. There is no quota or time limit behind my work, we can take it at your pace.
Most networks are sold and built in pieces: campus from one vendor, WAN from another, data center from a third, cloud from whoever the application team picked. Each piece gets designed with a different project, with different goals and objectives but the whole thing put together by accident. My aim is to make the network become more whole.
