 What makes us unique?

Small enough to care, big enough to deliver

We value a strong connection with our customers. It’s a key factor we uphold, even as we grow as a company each year. With over 400 highly qualified and enthusiastic employees we’re big enough to deliver, but we’re small enough to care.

Scale

A perfect blend of IT and business

We like to position ourselves on the crossroads between technology, business, and people. That gives us a broader view on your challenges and possible solutions, and allows us to help or advise you on more than just technology.

end-to-end

A true end-to-end partner

Our consultants have a lot of expertise and boast a large range of skillsets. That lets us be a true end-to-end partner, that helps from concept to go-live. And beyond.

Cross

A broad offering, but in-depth expertise 

We master both company-wide implementations and highly specific expert solutions. By seamlessly integrating them into your landscape, we deliver results. We know what we are talking about and we’ve got the track record to prove it.

User_heart

A strong belief in people

We strive to improve the lives of your customers and employees. Because every business is a people’s business. Happy people make happy customers. We invest in our own people they support others to thrive.

The loyalty of our customers

Every company says it’s customer-centric these days. We’ve got the numbers to prove it: our average customer satisfaction score is 89% and the average duration of our customer collaboration is over 7 years.

We help you find the right focus

We believe that thriving in a digital world requires mastery and maturity in a few different domains. Together, we decide on your needs and priorities before we initiate the transformation of your business.

We’ll help you focus on the technological challenges that matter and - once solved -  will offer real added value for your business. It’s never about the solution, it’s about what it means for your growth.

Great Place To Work

We value people

Our own people. But also your people. Our employees. Your customers. Because happy people make happy customers.

It’s no coincidence that for the 14th year in a row, we are recognised as a Great Place to Work. However, achieving this recognition isn't our end goal; it’s just the cherry on top of the cake. We prefer to use the Great Place to Work Survey as a valuable tool for improvement.

We continue to focus on attracting people who fit our DNA. We let culture fit outweigh expertise. We value communication and transparency. And above all else, we value people.
