Making organisations work. Really work.
We help technology organisations bridge the gap between strategy and reality, design better ways of working then stay involved until the change actually sticks.
Technology alone can't solve organisational friction because lasting change starts with people.
Open Works is a London-based technology consultancy that helps organisations design better ways for people, technology and processes to work together. We start by understanding the strategic intent, then uncover what's really getting in the way of the people doing the work, and build from there.
When the design work is done, we don't walk away. We stay involved until the change has become part of how the organisation works. You're not left with an expensive implementation and more pressure on your teams. You're left with ways of working that your people understand, own and can sustain long after we've gone.
Not another framework. Not another deck.
Some organisations are a natural fit for how we work.
Open Works partners well with technology organisations who are passionate about what they do and are serious about making real, impactful change. We thrive off that energy.
We are likely a good fit if your organisation is:
- Struggling to turn strategy into consistent delivery
- Honest about the gap between where you are and where you want to be
- Open to challenge, including on things that have become accepted as normal
- Looking for a partner to work alongside, not a vendor to hand work to
- Working on something that has a positive impact on the world.
We work best with organisations that value collaboration, openness and practical delivery. If you're looking for a traditional consultancy that supplies resources, fixates on constraints and outputs before handing over a PowerPoint and moves on, we're probably not the right fit.
If something here sounds familiar, it is probably worth a conversation.
We work with a small number of organisations at a time, which means every engagement gets the depth it deserves. Tell us what you are dealing with and we will be honest about whether we can help.
