Bring us your difficult.
We work in partnership with global clients going through periods of significant change, bringing high-quality people, drive and pragmatism to deliver extraordinary results.
Who we are
Delivering extraordinary results through significant change.
Refractis is a boutique consultancy that specialises in working with companies going through periods of significant change.
Founded by a group of experienced IT consultants who recognised that delivering successful IT transformation is hard, but that bringing together high-quality people with drive and pragmatism can achieve extraordinary results. Our approach of using small teams in pivotal roles offers flexible and focussed delivery, combined with technology expertise across the entire lifecycle: from strategy and business case, through procurement and delivery, to benefits realisation and long-term incremental improvement.
How we work
Strategy in practice
The team that wrote the IT strategy stayed to deliver it.
A Swiss medical testing group had grown by acquisition faster than its IT. Alongside the Global CIO we diagnosed the estate and set the strategy, then put a small team in the key roles to run the transformation.
- employees on one identity and document service
- 15,000+
- testing sites in the network migration
- 900+
- global monitoring now in place
- 24x7
