The Power of Fractional IT & Compliance Leadership
Hiring a full-time CIO or CISO costs $250K+ per year, which is unrealistic for early-stage startups. However, your medical device or life science company still needs top-tier executive strategy to pass vendor assessments and secure hospital contracts.
Enterprise Expertise on a Startup Budget
We provide flexible, fractional IT and compliance leadership, giving you expert guidance without the full-time overhead.
Act-As-You-Need Agility
Our services deliver CISO-level planning without the full-time cost, allowing you to pay only for the strategic intervention you need right now.
Scalable Partnership
We serve as a trusted partner from startup through scale, ensuring your IT and security framework will grow with you as needed.
Local Expertise: Hands-On Support in the Bay Area
Many compliance consultants operate remotely or focus on generic national clients. But when you are building complex, regulated medical devices, oftentimes things can’t be fixed through Zoom sessions.
In-Person Execution
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area on the Peninsula, Inoculis provides local, hands-on execution and in-person support.
Building Immediate Trust
Being local means we can meet with you, and if desired your investors, and hospital security teams in person, building trust faster.
Deep Regional Insight
We understand regional healthcare regulations, Silicon Valley VC expectations, and industry networks.
