Our Story
Founded as part of the established Altia Technology Group, altiaConsulting was created to address the growing need for independent, strategic technology advice in an increasingly complex digital landscape. While technology has become central to business success, many organisations struggle to align their technology investments with strategic objectives, often finding themselves with sophisticated tools that don't deliver expected business outcomes.
We recognised that successful technology transformation requires more than just technical expertise—it demands a deep understanding of business strategy, industry dynamics, and organisational change. Our consultancy was established to provide this holistic perspective, helping clients make technology decisions that genuinely advance their business goals.
Our Approach
At altiaConsulting, we believe that technology should be an enabler of business success, not an end in itself. Our approach is built on four foundational principles that guide every engagement:
Business-First Thinking: We start with your business objectives and work backwards to identify how technology can best support your goals. This ensures our recommendations are grounded in commercial reality rather than technological possibility.
Value-Focused Delivery: Every initiative we recommend must demonstrate clear business value. We help you prioritise investments based on potential impact and establish mechanisms to track and measure success throughout implementation.
Collaborative Partnership: We work alongside your teams rather than in isolation, transferring knowledge and building capabilities that ensure sustainable success beyond our engagement. Our consultants become temporary members of your team, bringing expertise whilst respecting your organisation's culture and ways of working.
Pragmatic Solutions: We focus on practical, implementable recommendations that consider your current capabilities, constraints, and culture. Our strategies create realistic pathways to your target state that deliver value at each step of the journey.
Our Values
Trust:
We build lasting relationships through transparency, honesty, and consistently delivering on our commitments. Our clients depend on us to provide objective advice and reliable execution.
Excellence:
We strive for the highest standards in everything we do, from the quality of our analysis to the clarity of our communication. Our reputation is built on consistently exceeding expectations.
Innovation:
We embrace new ideas and creative problem-solving, helping our clients stay ahead of technological change and competitive pressures. Our approach balances proven methods with innovative thinking.
Collaboration: We believe the best outcomes come from working together. Our consulting style emphasises partnership and knowledge transfer, ensuring our clients build internal capabilities for continued success.
Working With Us
.Every engagement begins with understanding your specific situation, challenges, and objectives. We don't believe in standard solutions because every organisation is unique. Our discovery process ensures we fully understand your context before making any recommendations.
We structure our engagements to deliver value quickly whilst building towards longer-term objectives. This approach demonstrates early success and builds momentum for larger transformations. Our flexible engagement models accommodate different organisational needs and preferences, from short strategic assessments to comprehensive transformation programmes.
Throughout our work, we emphasise clear communication and regular progress updates. You'll always understand what we're doing, why we're doing it, and how it contributes to your objectives. Our reporting focuses on business outcomes rather than technical activities, ensuring stakeholders at all levels can understand and support our work.
