IT Consulting in Edinburgh
Independent advice for Edinburgh businesses making a technology decision they cannot easily reverse — replacing a core system, choosing a supplier, or working out why IT costs keep rising while nothing seems to improve. Advice that is not attached to selling you the solution it recommends.
Why this comes up
The problem
Technology decisions get made on a supplier's recommendation, and every supplier recommends what they sell. Nobody in the room is paid to say the honest answer might be doing nothing.
What you get
What we deliver
- An assessment of what you run now and what it genuinely costs, including staff time
- Options set out with trade-offs, not a single recommendation presented as inevitable
- Supplier and product evaluation against your requirements rather than a feature grid
- Total cost modelled over several years, including migration and exit
- A written recommendation you can take to your board or to another supplier
- Where doing nothing is the right answer, that stated plainly
Want this scoped for your business in Edinburgh?
Thirty minutes, no charge, no sales script. You leave with a written summary of what it consulting would actually involve — whether or not you use us.

IT Consulting in Edinburgh — common questions
- Will you recommend your own services?
- Where we are genuinely the right fit we will say so and declare the interest. The value of this engagement is advice you can act on independently, so a recommendation that only works if we deliver it defeats the purpose and you should treat it sceptically.
- Our IT costs keep rising. Can you find out why?
- Usually. The recurring causes are licences for people who left, overlapping tools bought by different departments, auto-renewals nobody reviewed, and infrastructure sized for a peak that passed. All are findable and most are recoverable.
- How long does an engagement take?
- A focused question takes days; a full review of a mid-sized estate takes weeks. It is scoped and fixed-price up front, because open-ended consulting is exactly the arrangement businesses have learned to distrust.
- Can you help us evaluate a supplier's proposal?
- Yes, and it is a common request. A second opinion on a significant quote — what it includes, what it omits, and what the exit looks like — is inexpensive relative to the commitment being considered.
- Do you work with businesses across City of Edinburgh?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Edinburgh and the surrounding City of Edinburgh area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Edinburgh businesses do you usually work with?
- Financial services and data-led work, plus seasonal systems that have to absorb enormous August load without falling over. Beyond that we work across Financial Services, Technology, Tourism, Higher Education and Data Science.
- Do you cover the areas around Edinburgh?
- Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Glasgow. Edinburgh is an urban area of roughly 540,000+, and we take on work across the wider City of Edinburgh region rather than the city boundary alone.
