Included below are some examples of how we’ve helped our clients to adapt to transformational changes in their markets. To protect the innocent and avoid embarrassment (not to mention any legal challenges) we’ve avoided naming the companies involved.
A common theme is that these were all tough transformational changes within the context of the emergence of the Internet and digitisation of businesses that own and monetise content and rights; this includes music, film, gaming, book and newspaper publishers to name but a few. In these sectors consumer expectations continue to change rapidly and new market entrants are continuing to disrupt established models.
Our unique experience puts us in the best possible position to support any company going through technology led transformation, especially in disrupted markets.

Following the launch of a new software system, their distribution centre had started to suffer from increasing performance problems and severe bottlenecks in throughput. We were asked to get involved to help establish what was happening. It became apparent that the problem was much wider than just the new IT system. Read more
