Services

Engagements are structured to the requirements of each organisation and can combine several formats.

Software consulting

Independent advice on architecture, team setup, tooling and delivery process. You get a clear view of what to change first and why.

  • Product Owner, Business Analyst, Rollout Manager
  • Build, release and quality practices
  • Build or buy, vendor and stack decisions
  • Technical due diligence support

Interim management

A senior lead for your development organisation while you hire, restructure or wait for a key person to return. I take over day to day and leave a team that runs without me.

  • Interim head of development or CTO role
  • Hiring, onboarding and team coaching
  • Roadmap and stakeholder communication
  • Structured handover to your successor

Project management

End-to-end ownership of a software project, from scope to release. Plans stay honest, risks are visible early, and the team keeps its focus.

  • Scoping, planning and budget tracking
  • Agile or hybrid delivery, as the team needs
  • Steering with management and clients
  • Managing external dev partners

About

I am Joerg Fehlinger, managing director of Strategy & Makers. For 25 years I have consulted organisations on software development, as an advisor, interim manager and project manager.

I am also co-founder and CEO of Fitrockr, a health data analytics platform that connects wearables for research, healthcare and coaching organisations. Running a product with a small team keeps me close to what delivery really takes: clear priorities, short feedback loops, customer deadlines, data privacy requirements and integrations with third-party APIs.

I bring both views to every engagement: the outside view of a consultant and the inside view of a founder who has to ship.
