Who We Are

IpX brings decades of experience and capability across defense, aerospace, automotive, technology, software, and oil and gas industries to bear to help companies transform, thrive, and sustain while disrupting their markets. For us, it’s about unearthing and clarifying underlying issues where they exist and helping companies address their most challenging business concerns by partnering with the organization to develop and implement new processes and ways of working, and ultimately achieve step-change performance.

IpX recognizes business transformation can be disruptive but believes our True North Calibration Model offers a proven pragmatic methodology to guide decision making, manage the disruptive aspects of change, and reduce risk. These are achieved through inclusive engagement with key stakeholders at all levels. This philosophy requires direct, transparent and sometimes challenging interaction – all of which serves to build trust and shared purpose among IpX transformation experts and client staff – a true partnership.

We are not merely PowerPoint consultants. We are Enterprise Sherpas. We roll our sleeves up and deliver the work many are afraid to do.

We are IpX.

Our Philosophy

Drawing from IpX’s experience, we believe breakthrough business process improvement outcomes are achieved by holistically addressing People, Processes, and Systems. Technology enables process change, but desirable business improvement outcomes cannot be achieved without organizational changes also. Ultimately, people must be inspired, empowered, and engaged.

Critical Success Factors

• Compelling case for action and organizational alignment with senior and key stakeholders

• In-depth understanding of organizational goals and vision, industry best practices, and gaps/issues

• Identifying and engaging the right leaders

IpX focuses on end-to-end enterprise-wide sustainable transformations which yield functional business improvements. The True North Enterprise Calibration Model is a proven set of best practices that enables global organizations to benchmark, assess, and transform the business challenges that impact most organizations.

Our industry experts work directly with your business stakeholders to assess the current state of the organization and create a tailored plan utilizing a phased approach for achieving the desired future goal.
