At Third Way Consulting, we take a different approach. Our consulting services are purpose-built for speed, depth, and clarity—powered by proprietary AI tools developed in our own Machine Intelligence Lab. Unlike traditional firms that scale through headcount, we scale insight—using AI-driven diagnostics, behavioural models, and verification tools designed in-house. From workflow to toolset, our approach enables faster issue discovery, deeper system understanding, and more defensible decision-making. Whether you're modernising infrastructure, navigating program risk, or leading transformation, we don’t just accelerate delivery—we improve the thinking behind it.

IT Transformation

The Problem: Most IT transformations are expensive, bloated, and unclear. Leaders struggle to define what should change—and why.

The Second Problem: The usual response? Bring in a big firm. Burn months and budgets on templated strategies. End up with more noise than progress.

The Third Way: We bring speed, clarity, and control. Our AI toolset maps risk, opportunity, and execution gaps. Then our consultants help you act on what matters—no more, no less.

Program & Risk Review

The Problem: Projects fail quietly—until they don’t. Most risk reviews come too late, and surface too little.

The Second Problem: Traditional reviews rely on slow interviews and templated checklists. They miss what matters—and report what’s safe.

The Third Way: Our multi-tier, Socratic AI toolset surfaces inconsistencies, omissions, and assumptions—fast. Then our consultants review, interpret, and deliver real findings with clear scoring and next steps.

Modernisation

The Problem: Legacy systems drain resources—but ripping them out is risky, political, and expensive.

The Second Problem: Most modernisation plans are aspirational. Too many consultants chase the new without understanding what still works.

The Third Way: We assess legacy environments using structured, AI-supported diagnostics. Then our experienced consultants help you modernise strategically, not just replace things.

Executive Advisory

The Problem: Tech decisions move fast. The stakes are high. And there’s no time to bring in a big team or commission a report.

The Second Problem: Traditional advisory models are slow, expensive, and tied to delivery teams rather than decision-makers.

The Third Way: We deliver rapid briefings and confidential support, led by senior consultants, supported by unique, world-class AI diagnostic tools. No interns. No slides. Just sharp thinking, fast, from those who’ve been there.

Government Services

The Problem: Public programs face scrutiny, pressure, and political constraint—while still needing to deliver real impact.

The Second Problem: Big consultancy frameworks rarely adapt well to the realities of government delivery. They overcomplicate. Or overpromise.

The Third Way: We provide clear diagnostics, structured reviews, and straightforward answers from experts with decades of government experience, leveraging AI to isolate the signal and expertise to drive momentum.
