ABOUT US
We are a small company providing customised and IT consulting services to our clients.
After a life working for leading technology and consulting firms,
I decided that I wanted to provide the same high quality services
in a more flexible way, at a more affordable rate.
In 2020 it was high time to start my own company

profile
Dick is an IT consultant with more than 25 years of experience.
After his engineering studies, he spent most of his career at IBM and PwC working on IT infrastructure- related projects in various technical, management and advisory roles. He recently founded his own company to continue supporting clients in freelance mode.
Based on his engineering roots, he was soon attracted by the complexity of datacenters combining IT with trades such as construction, electrical and mechanical engineering and physical security. He spent many years building his datacenter expertise before moving into cloud computing and adding information security and business continuity as areas of interest, skills which he has demonstrated in many projects and formalized through certifications.
Dick is fascinated by the link between technology and business, and how an IT environment can significantly influence an organisation’s success. Shaping IT environments that help clients meet their requirements in terms of availability, resilience, security and related compliance, has become his favourite role which he has been doing successfully over more than 20 years,
at IBM, at PwC and now as an independent professional.
His years of experience in the design, setup and operating of IT infrastructure, the management of technical projects and his dealings with business stakeholders and technical teams make Dick a very versatile IT professional with a focus on datacenter & cloud, business continuity, information security and IT risk & compliance.
