Your IT works, so why is everything so hard?

The problem rarely presents itself as an IT problem. It shows up when a simple change becomes a project, when information cannot be found or used, when a good idea cannot be carried into practice, or when nobody quite dares use AI because they do not know how it works.

We help our clients create value by creating coherence between business, people and technology, by focusing on what actually matters, and by helping them make the choices that create the most value.

How we see it

Three things we believe

The convictions behind the advice. They are also the ones a client is most likely to disagree with, which is rather the point.

01
Everything drifts from bespoke towards commodity
Custom systems are not a mistake. The mistake is having them where the market has quietly started selling a commodity, and commodities where you ought to stand apart. Our first job is helping you see which is which.
02
The value has moved to the layer between systems
No institution wins on having the best single system. They win on how well their systems talk to each other, to the public sector's and to their customers'. That is why we built an integration platform before we built products.
03
No advantage lasts more than a few years
What lasts is the ability to change formation quickly. So we build for replacement: one system at a time, without the rest having to follow. Flexibility is really a question of what it costs you to change your mind.
Our values

Five things you can hold us to

We are the supplier you call with the hard question, not the one with a permanent desk in your building. When you talk to us, expect us to ask before we answer, explain so it makes sense, say what we actually mean, and take responsibility for what we recommend.

Be curious
Understand the problem before falling in love with the solution.
Keep it simple
The difficult part may sit below the surface. On your side it has to make sense.
Say it as it is
We are as clear about what we do not know as about what we do. Even when it costs us the job.
Take responsibility
Advice has to be usable. A solution has to work in the real world.
Create freedom
The best solutions do not tie you to us. They put you in a position to carry on by yourselves.

Niels Reinau, founder of iCEO
Who you'll work with

Niels Reinau

Niels founded iCEO after a career spent at IBM, at eBay, and running platforms at DanDomain and Zitcom, two of the largest hosting companies in Denmark. Zitcom is today team.blue Denmark, and DanDomain is one of the brands it still trades under. He works alongside consultants who have been in this industry for twenty-five years. You get that experience directly, not a partner at the pitch and a graduate on the work.

Start with the ambition, not the system

Tell us what you would like to be able to do next year, and what is stopping you today. We answer what we know, and say so if you should be asking someone else. Half an hour on the phone is usually enough.
