Bringing Digital Strategies to Life
Digitalization consulting
Digital transformation is changing companies in every industry around the world for good. This requires rapid rethinking, because digitization does not just mean switching to the latest information technology, but rather implies a fundamental realignment of the company. To achieve these changes, the acceptance of the employees must be won and their competencies must be further developed. We support you in meeting the challenges of digital change. In doing so, we apply our extensive methodological expertise in project and change management so that you can benefit from our broad and deep experience in diverse digitization programs. Our role in management consulting for digitalization is to bridge the gap between your goals and real results.
Project and change management in digital projects
Digitalization programs are demanding undertakings and many fail despite strong management attention. When ideas from the digitization programs are conveyed throughout the company, especially cultural challenges are key to final implementation success. This makes change management a crucial factor. Our holistic approach combines change and project management into an integrated three-step approach:
- Initiating change management from the digitization program in the entire company
- Integrating change management in program management to ensure a uniform approach
- Ensure continuous development with the right tools
In this way, we ensure long-term success of digitization programs for our customers.
Process mining
Using innovative data analytics technology, existing processes can be fully examined and measurably optimized for the first time. Process mining revolutionizes process management and unlocks previously inaccessible optimization potential and insights, resulting in:
- lower process costs,
- higher yields,
- improved risk management, and
- reduced working capital.
Together with specialized process mining providers, we make our customers’ processes fit for the digital future.

Steering of digitalization programs
With our three-part approach to managing digitalization programs, we support our clients in tactically consolidating agile and classic project management and to use the results in monitoring project success. The three steps include:
- Selecting the appropriate project management approach
- Transferring reporting from agile sub-projects
- Consolidating all reports into a program report
In this way, we guarantee success not only in terms of the project management target triangle of cost, quality and time, but also the success of the program portfolio and stable risk management.
Modern IT PMO
Complex large-scale IT projects with a focus on efficiency, flexibility and compliance require a modern PMO. Our tried-and-tested concept of the modern IT PMO offers:
- Holistic project management,
- Intensive and ongoing business / IT coordination, and
- Anchoring compliance and data protection in the PMO’s set of tasks.
Our business understanding, extensive project experience and mastery of dedicated tools enable us to ensure professional project management and support the success of demanding IT projects.
Management consulting:
Successfully implementing digitalization
Putting your digital strategies into practice
Our expertise in management consulting goes beyond traditional project management and includes the practice-oriented integration of digital solutions into your business processes. We focus on effectively turning digital strategies into reality by creating close synergies between your business operations and technological innovations. This approach bridges the gap between strategic planning and operational implementation, ensuring that digital initiatives generate real value for your business.
Digitalization as a team effort: focus on employees
Our digitalization consulting emphasizes the importance of employee involvement in digital transformation. We understand that the success of digitalization in companies depends largely on the acceptance and active participation of employees. Together with your team, we develop approaches to make efficient use of your employees’ digital skills and engage them as key players in the transformation process.
Using digital skills and technology the right way
For digitalization strategies to be effective and efficient, there is usually no way around agile implementation. This is because technological possibilities and the digital skills of the players are developing far too quickly to fit into a rigid framework. That’s why we help you to activate the important factors at the right time to achieve your goals.
In digitization: awarded
For the 4th time – since 2019 – acondas has received the “Best Consultant” award in the “Digitalization” category – an award for which you cannot apply. The “Best Consultant” survey is conducted annually by the business magazine brand eins and the market research company Statista and is based on surveys of a total of 1,967 consultants and 1,500 executives.
Project and change management
Even the most advanced digitization strategy does not implement itself. Since people’s attitudes and behaviors do not change automatically, implementation projects require active project management and extensive change management.
Our integrated project and change management approach (acondas PCM®) combines the “hard” factors of project management with the “soft” factors of change management. Our approach is to address all aspects of digitization projects that are critical to success and support their implementation in a targeted, active and effective manner. In this way, we ensure the sustainable implementation success of the digital transformation.
