Technology Execution That Meets Business Ambition
We combine modern technology, sustainable architecture, and modern ways of working to harness Digital Energy partnering with technology, operations, and transformation leaders to turn ambition into delivered value. For financial sponsors, we apply the same execution rigour to turn portfolio technology into a driver of operational performance, enterprise value, and sustainable growth.
The challenge isn’t strategy, it’s execution. Legacy constraints, fragmented delivery, and slow ways of working drain Digital Energy and stall progress. We focus on plugging those leaks to restore momentum and accelerate transformation.
We deliver tangible outcomes and build internal capability that endures long after we leave the building..
Technology Strategy & Operating Models
The reality leaders face
Technology strategies often stay too long on paper, disconnected from day-to-day delivery. Roadmaps fragment, investments don't align, and outcomes drift.
How we help
We design operating models that connect strategy to execution, one clear roadmap that links investment to outcomes and keeps transformation on track.
What you get
A technology strategy blueprint and operating model that defines governance, decision rights, investment flow, and vendor oversight
Service capability maps aligned to business priorities
Clear accountability frameworks that reduce friction and accelerate decision-making
Practical implementation roadmaps that phase delivery and prove value early
Value delivered
Leaders gain a clear, actionable model that scales with the business and builds board confidence in IT as a growth driver
Business Technology Standard (BTS) Partnership
We are the sole UK & Ireland implementation partner for the Business Technology Standard, a structured framework used by leading organisations to align IT with business strategy.
BTS Training Programme
We offer BTS training for organisations looking to embed this approach internally. Training equips teams with practical tools to rationalise systems, improve governance, and accelerate decision-making.
Technology Modernisation & Cost Efficiency
The reality leaders face
Legacy drag and vendor lock-in make change risky, slow, and expensive.
How we help
We modernise technology environments, simplify architectures, and optimise sourcing to reduce waste and unlock sustainable savings. We provide independent vendor oversight and client-side advice throughout.
What you get
Cloud-native architectures designed for flexibility, scale, and resilience
Legacy modernisation roadmaps that reduce risk while maintaining operational stability
Sourcing strategies and vendor governance frameworks that prevent lock-in
Cost analysis and optimisation across infrastructure, applications, and operations
Value Delivered
Faster change, 15-20% lower operational costs, and technology foundations that scale with growth.
Cyber, Operational & Regulatory Resilience
The reality leaders face
Compliance is often handled reactively, draining focus from innovation and creating delays, costs, and audit risk.
How we help
We embed compliance and security from day one integrating risk and resilience into operations instead of adding them afterwards.
What you get
A resilience, compliance, and governance framework integrated into business operations
Proactive cybersecurity strategies aligned with business and regulatory requirements
Third-party and cloud risk management programmes
Automated compliance reporting and audit readiness
Value delivered
Reduced risk exposure, smoother audits, and compliance as a competitive advantage.
AI, Data & Intelligent Automation
The reality leaders face
Data is fragmented, AI pilots stall, and automation rarely scales into production.
How we help
We create data strategies, modernise pipelines, and deploy automation and AI solutions that deliver measurable outcomes today whilst strengthening foundations for tomorrow.
What you get
Data strategies and governance frameworks enabling trusted, scalable AI adoption
AI and automation implementations that deliver quick wins while building long-term capability
Data modernisation roadmaps balancing immediate needs with strategic improvements
Integration architectures ensuring data flows seamlessly across systems
Value delivered
Smarter, faster decisions, automation that frees teams from manual work, and AI that scales with business needs.
Private Equity & M&A Technology Support
The reality leaders face: Technology can be the hidden fault line in a deal thesis - a source of unexpected costs, delayed synergies, and exit multiple compression. Traditional IT due diligence identifies problems but rarely provides the execution blueprint and pace to fix them.
How we help: We are your technology execution partner across the investment lifecycle. We apply the BRIDGE methodology to transform portfolio technology from a deal risk into your most reliable lever for EBITDA growth and multiple expansion.
What you get
Pre-Deal Due Diligence: A quantified assessment of a target's Digital Energy, measuring legacy drag, synergy potential, and integration/separation complexity to de-risk the thesis and price the deal.
Carve-Out & Separation Execution: Hands-on leadership to execute clean breaks, applying Integration-First Architecture and Governance that Empowers to ensure NewCo achieves operational independence and is positioned for growth.
Post-Merger Integration (PMI): Systematic synergy capture through Digital Outcome-Based Execution, harmonizing technology and operating models to accelerate EBITDA growth.
Post-Acquisition Value Creation: Technology transformations that directly impact the P&L, from platform modernization to new digital product launches, using Energy & Experiments to de-risk innovation.
Exit Readiness & Preparation: We ensure technology is a compelling multiple-expansion story, with a Regulatory by Design foundation that makes the asset more resilient and valuable to future buyers.
Value delivered
A technology function that is a documented, defensible driver of financial returns—from a de-risked acquisition and accelerated synergy capture to a compelling exit narrative that justifies a premium multiple.
Execution & Change
Leadership
The reality leaders face
Projects stall when strategy and execution drift apart, leaving IT firefighting instead of delivering.
How we help
We provide senior, hands-on leadership that connects business, risk, and technology into one delivery rhythm.
What you get
A transformation governance model that aligns business, risk, and technology around shared metrics and cadence.
Value delivered
Change delivered at pace, outcomes sustained, and visible proof of value that boards can trust.
