Rudman Consulting helps you maximise the opportunities, minimise the risks, and manage the impacts of getting digital.

We work with you to envision and build business models or rejuvenate and adapt existing ones, according to the opportunities of digital technologies.

Rudman Consulting Ltd is a practice that works specifically on:

• designing, developing and delivering national and regional digital development programmes for the creative, cultural and tourism sectors – see the AmbITion programme, for example;
• inspiring and assisting organisations to design, develop, and implement digital strategies that are integrated across all areas of business (offer, products, operations, customers) to create long-term, transformational business model sustainability and adaptability, via consultancy with individual organisations; and
• IT infrastructure planning for capital projects – see The Bluecoat Arts Centre case study.

Are you as digitally fit as your customers?

The impact of technology has changed the way that our 21st century society works, earns, and plays – digital developments have changed the way that we gather information, communicate, and consume. Our organisations’ clients, audiences, and fans are setting the pace of the need for businesses to engage with IT and digital developments. Across the spectrum, businesses are investing in ICT, e-business, web and mobile technologies, social media platforms and other digital developments so that they can continue to competitively offer product and engage customers.

Organisations are finding that traditional rational analysis of data and hierarchical communication no longer makes them competitive – our customers have to buy in with their hearts as well as minds: businesses have to emerge and adapt. Instant communication and global reach, crowd sourcing, open source and open innovation make business less about what we know, and more about how and where we apply our knowledge. In the creative, cultural, and tourism sectors digital production methods, digital distribution channels, and our audiences’ digital consumption patterns are creating both opportunities and challenges for businesses. Rudman Consulting helps you maximise the opportunities, minimise the risks, and manage the impacts of getting digital in a world where the only constant is change, complexity, uncertainty and ambiguous circumstances.
