Why Core & Gate

Predictable cost. Senior ownership. Measured return.

Outcome-based, not time-based

Fixed deliverables and a fixed fee per phase. Never day rates.

We recommend, then stay

Through implementation, go-live and stabilisation.

One gated methodology

7 phases, with a quality gate between each.

Every initiative tied to ROI

Every initiative is tied to a measurable financial return: defined before you commit, measured after go-live.

No slide decks, a dashboard you act on

No PowerPoint reports that end up in a drawer. Every phase lands in one live dashboard your team uses to decide what to do next.

Is this you?

Built for the people who own the outcome.

  • CFO
  • CEO / COO
  • CIO
  • Programme & Project Leads
  • Change Leads
  • You need predictable spend

    Fixed fee per phase, defined deliverables, a proven end-to-end method.

  • You need an independent second opinion

    A senior sounding board to challenge vendor plans and delivery.

  • A delivery is stuck or tangled

    20+ years of track record untangling complex programmes.

  • You need quality assurance end to end

    Gates at every phase, so quality is checked rather than assumed.

  • You need change but lack the in-house team

    We set up and run the programme with you, then hand over.

  • One place to track it all

    Initiatives spread across spreadsheets, emails and status meetings? The Value Monitor puts every initiative, owner and euro in one tool, so finance and business leads look at the same numbers and pull in the same direction.

How we de-risk delivery

Seven phases. A gate between each.

Every phase ends at a gate: nothing moves forward until the deliverable is signed off.
