Tidy the
complex.

We give growing organizations the senior leadership they need, right when they need it — for your technology and for your mission, without the cost of a full-time hire.

Technology Leadership Non-profit Management Leadership on demand

Two practices, one firm

We tidy the complex — from your technology stack to your grants portfolio.

Between the two of us, we cover a surprising amount of ground. Come to us for one practice or both — whatever your challenge actually needs, systems and stewardship.

Technology Led by Morgan Van Wely

Technology leadership, on demand.

Senior technology leadership for organizations not ready for a full-time CIO — setting strategy, steadying operations, and making systems and data serve the business. Decades in enterprise SaaS and the Salesforce ecosystem, minus the sales pitch.

  • Fractional CIO & technology leadership — strategy, roadmap & governance
  • IT & business-systems strategy, budgeting & vendor selection
  • Quote-to-Cash & revenue-systems architecture (CPQ, billing, ASC 606)
  • Salesforce & enterprise-SaaS optimization and integration
  • ERP, data-platform & AI-adoption strategy
  • M&A systems integration & IT operations

Where the practices meet

The rare firm that brings the operator & the architect.

Non-profits rarely need just a system or just an operator — they need both. Olja has run $50M+ grant portfolios and streamlined the grant- and program-management operations, and the underlying tech stack, that keep mission-driven organizations moving. Morgan has built technology for the American Red Cross, Special Olympics, and Lutheran World Relief, and architects the platforms that make it all run. Together, TidyOps designs the workflow and the software behind it.

The Partners

A husband-and-wife practice, two decades of craft.

We're small on purpose. You work directly with the person doing the work — no account managers, no hand-offs, no bench of juniors learning on your dime.

How we work

However you work with us, the standard's the same.

01

We put you in control

Good governance is the difference between a system you own and one that owns you. We map how everything fits together and hand you the visibility to plan and decide.

02

We clean up the mess & restore trust

We do the hard, unglamorous work — untangling data, processes, and automations that drifted over time — so your team can rely on what's in front of them.

03

We manage change & reduce risk

Change is hard when it's out of control. We bring stakeholders along, prepare teams for what's next, and put review and compliance where they belong.
