IQbusiness

Founded in South Africa, IQbusiness serves businesses across the African continent as a digital integrator. The company says it was born and raised in Africa, that it holds a B-BBEE level one contribution rating, and that it works with African organisations that want to grow in a fast moving digital environment. Its site now describes the firm as having joined forces with +OneX to form a single digital integrator offering consulting and technology together.

Digital experience, strategy and business performance

The firm's first two service streams cover direction and capability. Digital experience and strategy involves shaping where a business is heading and designing the customer experiences that turn that strategy into action. Business performance and delivery is about building the capability of an organisation and carrying through complex change, with the company's own stated aim of doing so with confidence and precision. Behind both sits a consulting model the company describes as removing drag from a business and speeding up execution, by lining up strategy, technology, data and people around the same practical goals.

Modernising enterprise systems and building platforms

Enterprise modernisation and acceleration covers the move to better technology. IQbusiness says it combines strategy, innovation and technology-enabled transformation so that an organisation can operate leaner and make better decisions at scale. The intelligent applications and platforms stream covers the design and build of digital products and platforms, which the company says connect systems, data and operations so that technology spending turns into outcomes a business can measure.

Managed cloud, infrastructure and workplace services

The fifth stream is managed services. The company runs cloud, infrastructure and modern workplace environments for clients, with the stated aim of keeping operations secure and efficient as they scale. Governance, risk and compliance is listed as a separate line of consulting, aimed at organisations that have to meet regulatory standards.

Sectors served

The company names banking and fintech, health, insurance and telecoms as the industries it works with. Its site presents Africa as the setting for its work, with teams that move quickly, think differently and build for the continent and beyond. The company says its scale and capabilities help clients move from intent to impact, and digital transformation is one of the solution areas it lists alongside business agility and customer centricity.
