Taking on new engagements

An operator for the business. A builder for its systems.

Sentaur Group gives owner-led and regulated companies executive leadership in operations and technology, and builds the automation, data and software a lean team runs on.

Services

Five services. Start with the problem.

Each is sized to what you need: a standing executive, a build with edges, or a straight answer.

Fractional COO / CTO

Executive operations and technology leadership, 1–2 days a week, without the executive salary.

Good fit if

You're owner-led and growing faster than your systems and org chart, or you're regulated and need someone who has run compliance at scale.

What's included
  • Org structure, roles, accountability and succession
  • KPIs, operating cadence and the reporting behind them
  • Policies, SOPs and the training to roll them out
  • Tech stack ownership: vendors, integrations, security, roadmap
  • Interim and crisis leadership: licensing fights, litigation support, turnarounds

Automation and AI

Take the repetitive work off your team's plate so the people you have can do more.

Good fit if

Staff spend hours a week on manual reports, data entry, scheduling, follow-ups or customer questions.

Included
  • Workflow automation across the tools you already use: finance, ops, customer service, manufacturing, scheduling
  • AI agents for customer service, back-office and internal knowledge
  • Agent infrastructure: MCP servers, tool integrations, guardrails
  • A "where AI fits" assessment with a ranked list of what to automate first

Business intelligence and data

Sales, margin, labor and inventory in one live view, with plain-English answers on top.

Good fit if

The numbers live in five systems and a spreadsheet, and the monthly report is always late.

Included
  • Data pipelines from your software vendors (POS, ERP, accounting, CRM) into one database
  • Dashboards owners actually open: sales, margin, labor, inventory, cash
  • Agentic BI with OrionBI.ai: ask questions in plain English, get answers from your own data
  • Financial analysis, forecasting and pro forma models

Custom software and integrations

Software built for how your business actually runs, from a single app to a system that runs the company.

Good fit if

Off-the-shelf tools don't fit, two systems won't talk to each other, or a product idea needs to be built.

Included
  • Internal tools and line-of-business apps
  • API and system integrations: POS, ERP, EHR, accounting, vendors
  • Product design and development for new products and MVPs
  • Websites with AI customer service built in

Advisory and scoped projects

A specific problem, a fixed price, a defined deliverable, usually in 2–6 weeks.

Good fit if

You need an answer or a plan more than you need a standing executive.

Included
  • Operations and workflow assessment with a prioritized fix list
  • Market and opportunity analysis, including licensing and new-market entry in regulated industries
  • AI readiness and tech stack review
  • Founder and startup advisory: operating model, first hires, systems that scale, fundraising readiness
  • Regulatory and licensing strategy: applications, RFPs, municipal approvals
How we work

Three ways to work together.

Monthly retainer

Fractional

1–2 days a week on a monthly retainer, billed in advance. For companies that need an executive, not a vendor.

Fixed scope, fixed price

Project

A defined deliverable at a fixed price, 50% to start. For a problem with edges.

By the hour or day

Advisory

Calls, reviews, second opinions and emergencies.

Pricing depends on scope. Book a call and you'll have a number within 24 hours.

Who we work with

Four kinds of company, one way of working.

Regulated industries

Cannabis and regulated industries

Operations, compliance and systems for licensed businesses, from the first application to the next market.

  • Licensing and RFPs
  • Compliance across multiple regulators
  • Seed-to-sale and POS integrations
  • 280E-aware planning alongside your CPA
  • Multi-state expansion
  • Municipal approvals and vested rights
Startups and founders

Built for founders who need an operator, not another advisor.

We help early-stage companies set up the operating model, first hires, systems and reporting that let them scale without rebuilding everything at Series A. Engagements are sized for a startup budget: short scoped projects, fractional COO/CTO at a reduced cadence, and build work for MVPs and integrations.

What you get
  • Operating model and first-90-days plan
  • Systems and reporting investors expect to see
  • MVP and integration development
  • Fundraising readiness: metrics, data room, operating narrative
  • Introductions where they make sense: attorneys, accountants, investors, operators
Healthcare

Healthcare

Interoperability, practice IT and systems that can't go down.

  • HIPAA
  • HL7
  • DICOM
  • Interoperability
  • Practice IT
Owner-led growth

Owner-led growth companies

The companies growing faster than their systems.

  • Construction
  • Hospitality
  • Agriculture
  • Retail
  • Professional services
About

I'm Aaron Boshart.

I've spent my career on two tracks: leading operations in regulated industries, and building healthcare IT and software. Sentaur Group puts both on the same engagement, so the person who sets up the org chart, the KPIs and the SOPs can also build the systems that run them.

One call. One problem. A clear next step.
