Who We Are
ICT Consulting S.p.A. is a company providing strategic consultancy in information and communication technologies – hence the reason behind the name.
It was founded in 1998 by three professional partners from three generations of Telecommunications’ engineers (Salvatore Randi, Maurizio Decina and Vittorio Trecordi).
ICT Consulting S.p.A. is now a leading company in its own sector and it owes its success to the lengthy managerial experiences of the partners as well as the competences and skills of those people working for the company.
We offer a broad range of consultancy services, all aimed at supporting our Customers in the development and the realisation of projects regarding transformation and efficiency as well as the deployment of convergent fixed and mobile networks and security systems.
Where We Work
We enjoy an extensive coverage of the domestic market and we are proud of our numerous international professional experiences with telecommunications operators and multinational companies.
Our Clients
Our clients cover the whole chain of the information and communication technology market – that is, the ICT service providers, the consumers of ICT services (large companies) and the technology vendors.
All the most important Italian telecommunications companies are among our clients as well as international operators, manufactures of digital networking equipment, banking institutes, financial companies, public and local administrations, insurance companies and large Italian and multinational corporate companies.
Distinguishing Features
At the very root of our success is the guarantee of a “tailor-made” consultancy service that combines three key elements:
COMPETENCE
An in-depth technical competence concerning ICT platforms.
EXPERIENCE
A consolidated experience of complex ICT transformation programmes.
AUTONOMY
A real commercial independence from technological suppliers.
Our competences and skills in the IT/ICT sector – apart from a strong orientation towards innovation that derives from continual contact with universities (the PoliMI – Milan Polytechnic and the UniBG – University of Bergamo) and centres of learning (the FUB – Fondazione Ugo Bordoni and the Cefriel Research Institute) – have come to fruition alongside the main Telecommunications operators in Italy (Telecom Italia, Vodafone, Fastweb, WIND, 3) and operators (some of which incumbent) in countries such as the United Kingdom, Sweden, Spain, Switzerland.
As well as the highly technical component hailing from the experience accrued by the founding partners, there is also an acute ability to fully comprehend the dynamics of any business situation and to analyse the regulatory repercussions so as to be able to steer the way forward for the client.
In the more specific context of IT/ICT, this focus is translated into an ability to guide the client’s own choices starting off from the definition of the strategies themselves, right up to the design of the particular features of the project, evaluating the technical, economic and financial implications.
