No pitch. No hard sell. Just an honest conversation about your situation.

Technology decisions shouldn't keep you up at night

You wouldn't sign off accounts without an accountant. You wouldn't go to court without a solicitor. So why are you making six-figure technology decisions without an independent advisor?

Most UK businesses overspend on technology by 30–40% because they rely on vendors who sell, not advise. They buy tools they don't need, miss opportunities that could transform their operations, and discover problems only after they've become expensive.

I'm not a vendor. I don't resell software.I sit on your side of the table and tell you what's worth your money — and what isn't.

Three ways I help your business

Every engagement starts with a conversation. No menus, no fixed packages — just a scope built around what your business actually needs.

01
BUILD

Build the Right Thing

From AI-powered tools to complete digital platforms — I architect, oversee, and deliver technology that actually works for your business. No bloated enterprise software. No over-engineered solutions. Just what you need, built properly.

02
AUTOMATE

Automate What Wastes Your Time

I find the manual processes bleeding your team’s hours and replace them with automation that runs itself. CRM workflows, document processing, AI assistants, reporting — the boring work disappears, your people focus on what matters.

ADVISE

Advise Before You Commit

Before you spend a penny on new technology, I’ll tell you whether it’s worth it. AI readiness assessments, vendor evaluations, cybersecurity reviews, technology roadmaps — independent advice that saves you from expensive mistakes.

About Jan Sevcik

I've spent 22 years on the technology side. Now I'm on yours.

Czech origins, now based in Reading. I started my career at Schlumberger, one of the world's largest technology companies, and spent over two decades leading teams, designing systems, and delivering solutions for enterprises across energy, insurance, logistics, automotive, and pharmaceuticals.

Along the way, I noticed something: the people making the biggest technology decisions often had the least support making them.Business owners spending tens of thousands on systems they didn't understand, trusting suppliers who didn't have their best interests at heart.

So I built SelectWise — an independent advisory practice that sits on the business owner's side of the table. No products to sell. No commissions from vendors. No jargon. Just honest, experienced guidance.

Based in Reading. MSc in Software Engineering. Microsoft Azure certified. Certified Scrum Master.

Simple. No commitment. No hard sell.
