Independent IT Assessments for Executives Who Need Answers
We provide clarity, not reassurance.
You Suspect Nobody's Telling You the Whole Story
Your IT person left. Or your MSP sends monthly reports full of green checkmarks, but something doesn't feel right. You're signing checks for technology you can't evaluate, answering board questions you can't verify, and hoping nothing breaks before you figure it out.
You're not an IT expert. You shouldn't have to be. But you need to know what's actually running your business—and what happens if it stops.
Ground Truth About Your Technology
True Meridian Advisory provides independent IT infrastructure and security assessments for mid-market companies. We document what you have, evaluate what shape it's in, and translate what we find into business terms—dollars, risk, and operational impact.
Independent
We don't sell hardware, software, or managed services. We have no stake in the answer except getting it right.
Business-Focused
Findings are delivered in language executives understand—not technical jargon that requires translation.
Fixed-Fee
You know the cost before we start. No hourly surprises, no scope creep.

Engagements are scoped to your situation. Most assessments range from $5,000–$30,000 depending on environment size and complexity.
Business People Who Know Technology
I'm Mike Deliberto, founder of True Meridian Advisory.
I've spent my career where technology meets high-stakes operations—leading IT for a $550M risk management and business continuity SaaS company, running information security for a proprietary trading firm, and building infrastructure for large school districts where the budget was never enough and failure wasn't an option.
I also serve as an Infantry officer in the U.S. Army National Guard, including a deployment to Afghanistan. The military taught me that ground truth matters more than comfortable assumptions—a principle that carries directly into how I approach IT assessment.
True Meridian exists because too many companies are flying blind on technology. I help them see clearly.
