X3 Consulting

X3 Consulting is a United Kingdom-based software consultancy and certified Sage business partner specialising in the implementation, upgrade, support and rescue of Sage X3 and Sage Intacct enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. The company was founded in 2011 by Jaco, a Sage software expert who emigrated to the UK from South Africa and who is frequently called upon by Sage itself to assist with implementations. X3 Consulting is owned and managed by two hands-on, highly experienced business consultants, with Nick joining the business in 2018 to add commercial depth and help grow a customer-focused team of Sage experts. The firm positions itself as a trusted Sage partner for mid-market organisations, with particular depth in process manufacturing, food manufacturing and food distribution, as well as professional services, wholesale and distribution, and complex finance environments involving third-party integrations. Its service lines include Sage Implementation, Sage Upgrade, Health Check, ERP Rescue and Sage Support. X3 Consulting works on both a national and an international front, helping clients manage financials and operations using Sage technology while reducing operational costs across the organisation. A distinguishing asset is Trax3ion Catalyst™, a proprietary delivery framework created by X3 Consulting to make Sage X3 accessible, affordable and achievable for UK mid-market businesses. The framework promises go-live in 30 days (from 30 days depending on requirements), pre-tested Sage X3 templates and migration packs, and reported results of 65% faster delivery, 40% fewer defects and 100% compliance. X3 Consulting describes the approach as Sage-endorsed, built by Sage UK's lead X3 partner, and scalable by design through ongoing optimisation. Beyond new implementations, X3 Consulting has built a reputation as a go-to partner for ERP rescue and recovery. Over the last decade it has been called in by well-established Sage partners and by Sage itself to turn around failing ERP and CRM projects. Its rescue methodology is goals-based and collaborative, beginning with business analysis consultancy to establish a clear mandate before producing a recovery plan. The company also offers a health check service and an ERP rescue guide for organisations whose projects are off plan, off budget or off course. X3 Consulting operates as a private company and does not disclose a stock listing. Its public presence centres on its website, where it markets Sage X3 and Sage Intacct product tours, implementation services and the Trax3ion Catalyst™ framework. The business remains active and continues to support clients through implementation, optimisation and long-term growth with Sage software.

X3 Consulting was founded in 2011 by Jaco, a Sage software expert who emigrated to the United Kingdom from South Africa. The business grew out of Jaco's unique expertise and solution-solving around Sage and the implementation of the software. He is often called upon by Sage itself to help implement the software, and he developed a unique scoping tool to alleviate some of the issues companies faced when implementing software. Since 2011 the company has provided business transformation based around Sage X3 to a wide range of customers. It is owned and managed by two hands-on, highly experienced business consultants, and has established a delivery methodology intended to reduce cost and risk and increase change success. Its clients include manufacturers, professional services firms, wholesale and distribution businesses, and complex finance operations with third-party integrations. The firm works on both a national and an international front. In 2018 Nick joined the business, bringing experience of Sage and commercial knowledge. As the business expanded, X3 Consulting continued to grow and develop a customer-focused team of Sage experts, with Nick's commercial background complementing Jaco's technical depth to form the foundations of an expert partner and dedicated team. Over the last decade X3 Consulting has been called in by many well-established Sage partners and even by Sage itself to assist with ERP and CRM projects that have gone wrong. This ERP rescue and recovery work has become a notable part of its reputation, alongside its core implementation, upgrade, health check and support services. The company has turned around a number of failing ERP implementations. More recently, X3 Consulting created Trax3ion Catalyst™, a proven delivery framework designed to make Sage X3 accessible, affordable and achievable for UK mid-market businesses. The framework offers go-live in 30 days (from 30 days depending on requirements), pre-tested Sage X3 templates and migration packs, and reports 65% faster delivery, 40% fewer defects and 100% compliance. X3 Consulting describes it as a Sage-endorsed approach built by Sage UK's lead X3 partner, and scalable by design through ongoing optimisation. The company continues to operate as a private, active Sage business partner serving manufacturers, distributors, professional services and complex finance organisations.
