Inspiring clients to create valuable & sustainable IT services
Hear about why we're trying to provide a different approach to organisations when using advisory services and how we're driving a financially responsible approach to IT change.
Management consultancy often can be based on anecdotal feedback, we feel it should be based on evidence.
Our mission is to put the evidence back in your hands as a client, providing the tools to work with consultancies or collate your own data, ask questions and make data based decisions aligned to your organisations strategy, whilst getting the best value from any external resources you use.
Our Story
In 2019, Co-Founders of CoPerceptuo, Andy Shuttleworth and Andy Yates set up an ethical IT consultancy, aiming to bring value to the consulting space to the UK public sector. After a number of engagements, troubleshooting IT services, we were finding the same issues and risks cropping up.
The main issues weren't in technical capability; they centred around service alignment to business need, service management and operation, tackling budget and capacity pressures and understanding how technology creates benefit for their organisation. IT managers and directors often knew the problems they faced but they felt they needed the evidence to prove the issues they were speaking of to show they really existed and build confidence with execs.
On the back of this, CoPerceptuo was born.
We started to think about how we could change what we do to offer more value and give clients the insights they needed, in the format they needed it to form their own recommendations and give evidence that what they were saying was real. Today we've created this platform to do exactly that and enable easier conversations with execs based on trusted evidence.

As a company we set out our ethics very early on in our journey in that we would:
- Charge fairly for what we do and provide as much quality advice and value to our clients
- Ensure as little bias as possible in our recommendations with no sales agenda
- Only work with like-minded people and partners
To date, we have lived up to this in everything we've done and we're living the same values in CoPerceptuo. Our aim is to provide as much value for clients as possible, particularly to those who don't necessarily have the budgets to engage large amounts of consultancy or external contractors to enable this level of decision governance.
Hear what our customers are saying...
"We were worried as to whether we could get the sufficient amount of data in to get the insights out that we needed, but the unique way it works means we don't have to put all the data in to get individual insights out."
“The CoPerceptuo tool and accompanying support were great, effectively helping us build our digital strategy based on evidence, meaning we could focus outside help on advice that directly produced results."
What's a data taxonomy and why is it useful for understanding IT service performance?
Nobody likes to feel like they’ve wasted time or money on a project but often, it's just accepted as ‘part of the process’ in many IT consultancy...
