Matt GrygorcewiczBusiness Intelligence Lead
Ignite delivered; not just the deliverable, and desired outcomes, but also picked a team that could work and communicate exceptionally well with us. Did not feel like a typical consulting gig and never felt like we were paying for ‘someone to borrow our watch to tell us the time’ or upsell.

Aaron ClarkGroup Manager, Planning & Delivery
There is a lot less risk of error and we realise resource savings every day. This new platform enables us to spend more time focusing on refining our strategy, rather than having knee jerk reactions to market dynamics.

Ignite also helped build the foundations for positive engagement between IT and key business stakeholders in data. Many of these stakeholders had not been direct beneficiaries of the IM Programme, so this was a valuable outcome for both business and IT.
