The Strategic Bridge Between Business and Tech.

Align your technology with your business goals. We provide the fractional product leadership to build the right product, the right way.

Is your technology team a “feature factory”? Are they busy, but the business isn’t seeing the value?

Many companies with internal or offshore development teams struggle with this disconnect. The team is building features, but they aren’t building the right product to drive revenue and meet customer needs.

Authentic Bridge provides the strategic product management services to fix this. As your fractional CPO (Chief Product Officer) or vCIO, we become the essential bridge between your C-suite and your engineering team.

The Benefits of Fractional Product Management

When you engage a fractional product leader, you aren’t just hiring a consultant. You are embedding C-suite product expertise into your team for a fraction of the cost.

The benefits are immediate and tangible:

Stop Wasting Money: We immediately align your most expensive asset—your engineering team—with your most valuable opportunities. We stop the guesswork and ensure every sprint delivers real business value.

Get to Market Faster: By installing a proven, prioritized product roadmap and an efficient Agile process, we eliminate friction, reduce “re-work,” and ship the right features, faster.

Unleash Your Engineers: Engineers are your best problem-solvers, but they need a clear problem to solve. We provide the strategic “why,” freeing your team to focus on the “how,” which dramatically boosts morale and innovation.

Create C-Suite Alignment: We act as the single point of contact who can speak both “business” and “tech.” We translate your revenue goals into a clear plan for engineers and translate engineering progress back into a clear report for the Board.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is product management?

Product management is the strategic business function of guiding a product’s entire lifecycle—from the initial idea, through development and launch, to its eventual retirement. Its goal is to ensure the product (whether it’s an internal tool or a for-sale software) is valuable, usable, and feasible.

What's the difference between a Product Manager and a Project Manager?

This is a critical distinction.

  • A Project Manager is responsible for the “how” and “when.” They manage the timeline, budget, and resources to get the project done.
  • A Product Manager is responsible for the “what” and “why.” They are the strategic voice of the business and the customer, responsible for ensuring the right product gets built to achieve the business goals. We provide the high-level Product leadership.

What is a "product roadmap"?

A product roadmap is the single source of truth for your product’s strategy. It’s a high-level visual guide that shows how your product will evolve over time. It communicates the “why” behind what you’re building and aligns your engineering, marketing, and leadership teams around a single plan.

How does this service fit with a vCIO?

For any company where technology is the product, the CIO, CTO, or CPO role is one and the same. As your fractional CIO, we provide this exact C-level product management consulting and leadership. We ensure your most expensive and valuable asset—your engineering team—is perfectly aligned with your P&L.
