Who we have helped

(And many more...)
A large telecom operator

One of the largest Dutch telecom operators was to build a strategy and roadmap including revised architecture, financial plan, business change plan and was also seeking for execution of their digital transformation for their business market. Due to the complex governance (due to acquisitions and a large partner network) and its ecosystem strong leadership and capability to “force” and lead business change was strongly preferred. The Outlaws were asked to lead the strategic change, including the execution of the technical transformation.

A government institute

A Dutch government institute was to build a 2020/2022 strategy for their financial department. Facing a technical landscape which was highly outdated, they found momentum to investigate if there was business potential and appetite to implement a more robust, long-term sustainable platform. The Outlaws were asked to build their strategy, future architectural blueprint, a plan on how to execute and change their way of working.

A tech scale-up

A blockchain services start-up had the need to get from start-up to scale-up mode. A sustainable go-to market was required, including positioning of all services and products in the space of blockchain and digital transformation. The Outlaws were asked to setup their sales and marketing, and push for their first enterprise clients within several industries.

A M&A case at a telecom operator

A British telecom operator acquired several Dutch branches to grow their non-UK footprint. Facing a scattered (CRM) technical landscape which was highly outdated, they had the need to define a strategy and roadmap to merge teams, processes and technology. The Outlaws were asked to a 2021/2023 strategy and roadmap for their client focused activities.

A large energy retailer

A Dutch energy retailer with an international owner had the need to transform their business operating model to reduce churn, increase revenue and reduce their cost to serve. The Outlaws were asked to get their strategic greenfield program into the next gear. By redefining their go-to market, including positioning of all services and products, implementing a greenfield technology platform, redefining their processes and tackling the cultural change we supported them in transforming their business from a digital perspective.
