At a more traditional level, we help people run their companies more efficiently, supported through technology. On a more ambitious scale, we help people to plan exciting futures, building, acquiring or selling businesses with a technical dimension at their core. We do all of this this by empowering every client with a better understanding of the potential, limitations, ramifications and value of technology. 

 

Managed Services 

Of course, we understand nodes and switching, code and clusters, UX and UI, and more recent IT trends such as “machine learning”. However, it is our job to keep up with those technical terms and how they work. With a focus on proactive monitoring and maintenance, we increase your business capabilities and uptime. With on-call team members, we support your business 24 hours a day, including holidays. Best of all our contracts are flat rate, so you know your cost every month.

Information Technology (IT) Consulting

This is where we apply our core skills and experience to the broader corporate world. Are you a member of an IT team in need of help with a big project? Whether you need help designing a new project, or executing one, our experts have probably done it before. If we haven't, we've built a reputation for taking on the unknown and taming it.

 

Interim Executive Leadership

Our broader management experience is utilized by many clients as a means of helping senior individuals better manage their teams and upgrade their own skills. This is all about core competences, motivational and team management skills, team assessment and metric development.

Business Consulting

This often coincides with a merger or acquisition and involves managing a period of considerable change in a company’s human, infrastructural and technical resources.  

Imagine a company transforming from less than 200 to over 5000 employees and from 500 virtual servers to almost 4000, with no experienced person “on staff” to manage such massive infrastructural change. This is exactly the kind of scenario in which we can confidently and seamlessly “step in” as a full time, yet temporary, member of the senior executive team. 

In this situation we would typically deliver:  

  • Technical due dilligence

  • Recruitment and department creation and management 

  • Process, policy and procedure definition and alignment

  • Human resource reallocation and resolution 

  • Infrastructure planning, allocation and expansion 

  • Leadership coaching and mentoring (see above) 

The value here comes from the dedication offered by an expert individual, living and breathing the day to day challenges associated with change management, in contrast to a 3rd party supplier consulting at “arms length“.
