About...

Since our very first client engagement in 1987, independence, impartiality and objectivity have been at the core of every consulting project we have worked on.

We are a client side resource with specialised expertise, a temporary extension to the client's team and not vendors selling solutions as consultants.

In the 30 years since that first client project, we have worked with small, medium and large clients (national and multinational) across a broad range of business sectors on domestic and international projects with budgets that ranged in size from small to extremely significant (even today).

We are a firm of independent professional advisors with a clear and absolute focus on:

  • Providing independent, impartial, objective advice about current and emerging information, communications and web technologies...
  • Identifying and implementing solutions that fulfil clients' immediate and ongoing technology requirements...
  • Procuring technology solutions for clients on the most commercially advantageous terms...
  • Managing and delivering projects on-time and within budget...
  • Optimising and managing technology related expenditure (opex and capex) to maximise value...

Since 1987, we have seen the rise and fall of the PC, the fall and rise again of centralised computing (the cloud); the emergence of the pervasive internet; the genesis of the internet of things; the birth and development of social media; the evolution from dumb terminals to always accessible portable personal information technologies (smart phones and tablets) to next generation wearable technologies with implantable technologies just over the horizon; the shift from proprietary technologies to standards based technologies to open source standards based technologies.

However, two things have not changed since we first hung out our shingle in 1987:

Our value proposition - put simply, our involvement should save you money or make you money with a typical fee payback period of 3 to 15 months.

Bad technology decisions cost - choosing the right ICT technologies can make a business, however, the wrong ICT technology choices will, at best, impair or, at worst, break a business.

We are constantly monitoring, exploring and experimenting with new and emerging technologies so we are always positioned to provide an informed, objective opinion about how information, communications and web technologies can be leveraged to minimise costs and maximise benefits that grow profits.
