We’ve partnered with organisations from print and digital media through to telecoms providers and technology manufacturers to optimise their operations and transform their cost base.

We combine multi-disciplinary consulting expertise and our proprietary digital platform, deploying data-driven insights to deliver quantifiable operational cost savings and embed cost analytics capability, enabling clients to achieve efficiencies on an ongoing basis.

Our technology, media and telecoms consultants don’t just advise our clients they work with them to deliver complex cost transformation outcomes.
The challenges facing the technology, media and telecoms industry
The industry continues to evolve with many companies facing the challenge of how to manage the transition from a legacy business model to a future one without compromising their core proposition, in the face of increased competition.
Our team of specialist technology, media and telecoms consultants understand these challenges and are able to work with you to identify creative solutions to meet them.
• Increases in the cost of parts such as computer chips, coupled with a reduction in availability of components and materials, will see rising production prices and supply chain challenges.
• With increasing scrutiny relating to environmental issues and e-waste, technology companies will need to grapple with expectations and regulations surrounding production and disposal.
• Technology companies will need to diversify their supply chains and manufacturing capabilities to reduce reliance on specific regions or vendors to minimise disruption.
• How to manage the transition from a legacy business model to the future whilst still maintaining the quality of their content and optimising monetisation.
• People are spending more time than ever consuming media content but in the shift away from print and linear broadcasting to digital, mobile and VOD, there will be winners and losers.
• With platforms such as Google and Facebook taking a significant share of advertising spend the task of optimising for monetisation has become even more challenging.
• In the eyes of consumers, telecommunication companies have very little differentiating qualities which means that companies often have to compete on price alone, creating significant cost pressures.
• At the same time, many companies have to invest in expanding and maintaining their network, including a new 5G network, which requires a large capital investment.
• Telecommunication companies still face older challenges such as supply chain efficiency and digital customer acquisition.
