Technology

OC&C bring deep commercial insight to the technology sector, where we are widely recognised as a leading advisor to vendors and investors on the strategic, operational and M&A challenges they face.

Technology sectors remain highly dynamic in terms of competitive structure, purchasing behaviours, contract structures and value propositions -- with a blurring of the boundaries between IT infrastructure, software, services and main stream BPO.

At the heart of our work is a profound understanding of technology buyer's needs and purchasing behaviours, including their technology adoption strategies, deployment/replacement planning, vendor selection and feature requirements. We use this customer-centric thinking to help our sell-side clients adapt their sales and service propositions to emerging realities, as the technology buy-side becomes ever more dependent on robust and flexible technical infrastructures.

Our experience includes:

  • Revenue enhancement through pricing or needs-based market segmentation
  • Go-to-market strategies for new products and services
  • Operational enhancement including product development process efficiency and effectiveness
  • The reorganisation of B2B sales forces and wider organisational design
  • Market due diligence and merger / acquisition support
