Consortium Description
ASE Consulting's focus is as a UK public sector, client-side consulting business. We lead the ASE Buying Solutions Consortium and, with our partners, offer end-to-end service provision from strategy consulting to operational delivery. Our main focus is on technology enabled business change and our strength is in the delivery of complex government IT programmes, where we have over 20 years of experience. Because of our focus, all of our consultants have considerable experience to bear on your business issues and their contact within the UK public sector.
Our work is centred on technology enabled business change, spanning strategy development, planning, procurement, design, build, test and implementation. This covers application and infrastructure delivery, where our core activities span architecture (enterprise, business, technical & information), technology delivery, commercial (procurement, finance, and contract management), information assurance and programme / project management.
