What is IT & agency consulting?
Today, companies are faced with the challenge of strategically re-selecting their IT service providers and agencies, rethinking existing partnerships or even setting up their own digital agency. Only those who make such decisions carefully will remain competitive in the digital world and can count on future growth.
This is exactly where we come in: we help you find the right IT partner, critically evaluate existing collaborations or set up your own digital unit. Our goal is to work with you to develop a sustainable and future-proof solution that actively drives your digital transformation.
This not only enables you to make informed decisions, but also secures you a decisive competitive advantage in the long term – for the success of your company in an increasingly digital world.
Steps involved in replacing an existing IT service provider or agency
Sometimes, working with an existing IT service provider or agency no longer works optimally. Poor performance, a lack of innovation or simply a change in requirements can be reasons to end a partnership and look for a new service provider. The replacement process is often complex, as it involves ensuring a seamless transition and minimising potential risks.
Analysis of the current situation
The first step is a thorough analysis of the existing partnership. Where are the weak points? Which expectations have not been met? IT & Agency Consulting helps you to clearly identify the problems and make an informed decision about ending the partnership.
Risk analysis and transition planning
Parting ways with an IT service provider or agency can involve risks, especially when it comes to migrating data, systems or projects. A structured transition plan can help to ensure a smooth changeover and avoid downtime or data loss.
contract management
The legal aspects of terminating a contract with an IT service provider or agency should also be handled with care. IT & Agency Consulting supports you in reviewing existing contracts to ensure that all legal aspects are taken into account and that the separation is fair.

Are you looking for a new IT service provider or agency?
Choosing a new IT service provider or agency is a critical decision that can greatly influence the future success of your business. Whether it's developing a new website, managing your IT infrastructure or running digital marketing campaigns, the right partner must be a perfect fit for your goals and requirements. Steps for choosing a new IT service provider or agency:
Requirements definition
The first step is to define exactly what you expect from your new IT service provider or agency. Which technologies and services are crucial? How large should the team be? IT & Agency Consulting supports you in creating a clear list of requirements that serves as the basis for your search.
Market analysis and partner selection
With a comprehensive understanding of the market and access to a broad network, IT & Agency Consulting helps you identify suitable candidates. This ensures that the service provider not only has the necessary technical skills, but also fits in with your company culturally and strategically.
Application process and selection procedure
IT & Agency Consulting organises the entire selection process – from the tender to contract negotiations. Targeted due diligence is carried out to assess the performance of potential partners to ensure that they meet the requirements and can work successfully with your company in the long term.
Onboarding and partnership management
Once the right partner has been selected, structured onboarding is crucial. IT & Agency Consulting ensures that the collaboration works well from the outset and that the new partners are seamlessly integrated into ongoing projects and processes.
Want to realign or scale your digital agency?
The digital landscape is constantly evolving, and digital agencies must adapt to remain competitive. You may want to offer new services, expand your target groups, or make your internal processes more efficient. IT & Agency Consulting supports you in strategically realigning or scaling your agency. Steps for realigning or scaling your digital agency:
Analysis of the current agency structure
First, a thorough analysis of the existing agency structure is carried out. What services are offered? Where are the strengths and weaknesses? IT & Agency Consulting helps you evaluate your agency's performance and identify growth opportunities.
Development of a growth strategy
Based on the results of the analysis, a clear growth strategy is developed. Do you want to tap into new markets? Offer additional services in the areas of UX, web development or data analytics? Or perhaps make your processes more efficient by using new technologies? The consultancy supports you in developing a tailor-made scaling strategy.
Optimisation of processes and technologies
Successful scaling often requires optimising internal processes and deploying new technologies. IT & Agency Consulting helps you automate workflows, integrate project-related tools and increase your team's efficiency without compromising quality.
Team expansion and recruiting
To successfully scale your agency, you may need new talent. Consulting services can help you recruit skilled professionals and build a team that can support your long-term growth.

Everything you need to know when we work together
In an initial meeting, we clarify goals, challenges, and framework conditions. Based on this, I develop a customized setup - e.g., as an external product owner, UX consultant, technical project manager, or strategic sparring partner for digital product teams. I quickly integrate into existing structures and work closely with internal stakeholders, developers, and management.
Both are possible. I either work embedded in internal product teams (remotely or hybrid) or independently with my network of developers and designers. My goal is always efficiency, transparency, and smooth integration into existing processes.
A clear analysis of existing IT and agency processes reveals inefficiencies. Companies often use multiple tools with similar functions or work with workarounds that cost time and money. Consulting examines which systems are actually needed, how they can be integrated sensibly, and where automation can unlock potential.
The result: fewer unnecessary licence costs, fewer manual steps and a significant increase in productivity in day-to-day business.
No, that is not necessary. IT & Agency Consulting is deliberately structured in such a way that even non-technicians can immediately understand how recommended systems and processes work. The consultation includes training, clear instructions and, if desired, complete implementation.
This ensures that all employees can quickly work with the new structures, regardless of their prior technical knowledge.
The first improvements are usually noticeable after a short time. Often, it is enough to reconfigure existing tools or make minor process adjustments to immediately work more efficiently.
Larger changes – such as the introduction of new systems or a comprehensive process changeover – take a little more time, but also show measurable success early on, for example through reduced coordination efforts, better overview of projects or lower licence costs.
Important: The consulting is practical and designed for quick implementation, so your company does not have to wait months for improvements to become noticeable.
