What we'll cover.

    The proposition

    The right advice at the right time.

    Good decisions early save fortunes later. Our advisory is independent and evidence-based, and it comes from a team that has to deliver whatever it recommends.

    Independent

    Vendor-neutral, evidence-based advice: the right answer for you, not for us.

    Documented

    Assessments, reports and plans you can act on and defend.

    Accountable

    One owner across the engagement, from first question to delivered outcome.

    The practices Assessments & audits, Sourcing & advisory, Programme & project management and Feasibility, run under one engagement and one owner.
    Professional services    by practice

    Four practices, one engagement.

    How advice is built

    Your question. Our evidence.

    The question

    The evidence we gather
      What it settles

      Example questions. What sits under each one is the evidence an engagement of that type produces, and the decision it is scoped to settle.

      How an engagement runs

      Scope to recommendation, evidence throughout.

      The rail advances on its own. Hover to pause, or click a stage to jump to it.

      Deliverables

      What we hand you.

      Example

      Example layouts, drawn to show the shape of each document. None of them contains client data.

      The point of it

      What an engagement settles.

      These are the decisions clients bring us most often. Which one it is sets the scope and the evidence.

      01Decision

      Invest or exit

      Whether an estate is worth upgrading, or worth leaving.

      Settled byAssessments & audits
      02Decision

      Build or buy

      Own hall versus colo versus cloud, on your numbers.

      Settled byFeasibility
      03Decision

      Which site

      A defensible selection with the evidence on file.

      Settled bySourcing & advisory
      04Decision

      What first

      Which risks to fix now, and which can genuinely wait.

      Settled byAssessments & audits
      Proof    redacted

      Due diligence, three weeks, deal signed.

      A private equity firm acquiring a business with its own data centre estate needed to know what it was really buying: condition, risk, cost to remediate.

      Private equityAcquisition DDThree weeks
      3weeks from engagement to final report
      2sites surveyed, scored and costed
      1renegotiated price, informed by the findings

      The report set out the condition of both sites, the risk carried by each, and what it would cost to put right. The buyer used it to renegotiate the price.

      Client identifiers withheld; figures rounded.

      Inside the three weeks

      Fifteen working days, day by day.

      An illustrative shape for a two-site acquisition due diligence of the kind above. Every engagement is scoped on its own, and the sites set the survey days.

      Why Optronix

      Advice from people who build.

      We don't hand you a report and walk away. Because we cover the whole lifecycle, our advice is grounded in delivery, and we are here to see it through.

      Grounded in delivery

      Every recommendation is one we could be asked to carry out ourselves, so it has to work on site, not only on paper.

      One accountable owner

      One owner across the engagement, from the first question to the delivered outcome, across every party involved.

      Engineers from critical estates. Our engineers have worked for Microsoft, Google, AWS, JPMorgan Chase and Jane Street, among others, and they bring that standard to the advice.
