The Stratus Group

At The Stratus Group, we help leaders finally get out from under the weight of unreliable tech and operational chaos. Led by Rich Beynon, a fractional CTO with over 30 years of experience, we specialize in stepping in when your internal IT team can’t deliver-bringing real accountability, audit-ready systems, and a tech stack that truly supports your mission. CFOs and CEOs shouldn’t have to shoulder technology, reporting, and risk alone. We know the hidden costs: manual workarounds, inconsistent data, staff burnout, and missed funding opportunities. Our hands-on approach means we take ownership of your systems and infrastructure, and deliver the clarity and control you need to lead with confidence-not contingency plans. What sets us apart? Deep nonprofit expertise, rapid results, and a focus on building trust. We’ve helped organizations streamline reporting, achieve audit-ready confidence, and restore funder and board trust-all while empowering your team to work smarter. And because we know technology is only as effective as the people using it, we offer targeted productivity training to help your staff get the most from your systems and reduce daily friction. If you’re ready to stop being the accidental CTO and want a partner who takes real ownership of your tech, The Stratus Group is here to help. Let’s turn your technology from a liability into a strategic asset-so you can lead with clarity, confidence, and impact.
