    Company Description

    In large organizations, project managers, architects, and business analysts often operate autonomously. Not at Itility. Here these competencies are combined into customer-targeted teams, enabling the rapid delivery of results (within weeks). This rigorous approach is an essential feature of the Itility high-end consultancy formula. At Itility, you can advance your career as an IT professional; working on projects, Smart Factories, Smart Run, and consulting assignments onsite. An Itility team always comprises multiple competencies; ranging from project manager and scrum master to stack engineer, DevOps engineer and architect. Our teams direct project implementation. We begin by using our own IT assessment methodology to analyze customer problems, then define the best solutions, while determining required actions. This knowledge-intensive approach has a proven direct and positive impact on career development. With Itility, you’ll obtain a broad view of the IT profession; working with one customer in the implementation phase and another in the preparatory phase. To support your development, we provide resources in the form of training, and our Itility toolkits (Ikits); including the Project Management Ikit, the Scrum Ikit, and the Smart Factory Ikit.
