X4 Consulting launches

X4 Consulting launches to accelerate Kiwi businesses’ success

X4 Consulting has recently launched into the New Zealand market, bringing together business and technology services to optimise business processes, drive performance and deliver business success.

X4 Consulting, headquartered in Wellington, was formed with the intent of aligning companies’ IT services with their vision and business goals in order to optimise their business performance. The company assists with developing and articulating visions and concepts, architecting and designing solutions, managing change programmes and monitoring the results.

“We saw the opportunity to create a new breed of consulting company,” says Mick Bell, chief executive officer and principal consultant at X4 Consulting. “There are many other consulting firms in the market, however we saw an opportunity to focus on business and IT alignment, and in particular to address a weakness in the New Zealand market in the areas of organisational change management and business process improvement.

“Few New Zealand organisations do well in these areas and, as we see from numerous cautionary tales in the media, organisations often suffer dire consequences through exactly these sorts of oversights.”

X4 Consulting provides professional consulting services to both public and private sector clients, and its services span the end-to-end development lifecycle from vision, through architecture, design and change management to post-implementation monitoring and quality assurance reviews. X4 Consulting is not focused on the technical delivery of these solutions, but rather advising organisations on how they can best support business change, improve processes, eliminate risk and deliver business success as a result.

“Our approach has been simple: to bring together a collection of service lines led by people who are experts in their field, with significant local and international experience,” says Bell.

X4 Consulting has been operating since November 2012, and in that time has already worked with a number of leading organisations.

X4 Consulting Limited is a partially owned subsidiary of Intergen Limited, and is managed as a standalone, independent operation.
