Independent Technical Consulting

AI, infrastructure, and identity systems
built to hold up.

Tardis Consulting designs and implements the technical systems mid-sized businesses run on: automation, networks, identity, and the architecture decisions that determine whether the rest works.

A measured point of view

The right technology is the technology you can live with.

Most technical decisions become expensive when they are made in isolation. Tardis brings infrastructure, systems, and identity into the same conversation, so the trade-offs are clear before anything gets built.

The result is not more technology. It is a stronger operating foundation, with a plan your people can own.

Judgment before implementation

What We Do

Four areas, one point of contact.

Each service is offered independently or combined, depending on what the engagement calls for.

01

AI & Automation

Custom agent systems and LLM integrations that handle real operational work, such as document processing, internal tooling, and customer-facing workflows, connected to the systems you already run. Automation designed around your actual process, not a generic template.

02

IT Infrastructure & Systems

Virtualization, networking, and self-hosted infrastructure built for reliability and long-term maintainability. Migrations, architecture reviews, and system design for businesses moving off ad-hoc setups or reconsidering what they pay cloud vendors for.

03

Identity & Access Management

Microsoft 365 and Entra ID configuration, single sign-on, conditional access, and Zero Trust architecture. Access governance that matches who can reach what to who should be able to: documented, auditable, and enforced.

04

Fractional CTO & Advisory

Technical leadership on a part-time basis: architecture review, vendor selection, and a second opinion before a major technical commitment. For businesses that need senior technical judgment without a full-time hire.

Daniel Bushman Founder & Principal Consultant

Who you're working with.

Tardis Consulting LLC is a Minnesota-registered technical consultancy operated by its sole principal, Daniel Bushman. The work draws on 20 years in technology, spanning infrastructure, systems, and identity; AI and automation are the newest application of that experience, not the whole of it. Every engagement is handled directly: no account managers, no subcontracted delivery. Tardis Consulting takes on a limited number of clients at a time, so each one gets full attention rather than a slice of a larger team's.
