About
NOT YOUR TYPICAL CONSULTING FIRM
Origin Story
Ocelot Consulting was formed in 2016 by four former software engineering colleagues at a large St. Louis-based corporation. Their goal was to share the transformational lessons learned (Agility, Cloud, Security, DevOps) with other companies in the region.
You will notice the difference working with a company that was founded by technologists and is run by technologists. It is a refreshing, no-nonsense approach to solution delivery that our clients appreciate.
That customer satisfaction has fueled our growth as we continue to expand our presence regionally and nationwide.
We meet youwhere you are
We appreciate that every company is at a different spot in its transformation journey. Our expertise is in understanding where our clients are, where they want to go, and collaborating on a practical plan to get there.
We understand that sometimes this change must be incremental, and we will never try to force a technology or solution that our clients are unable to consume.
Transformation requires comprehensive change management that includes engaging and partnering with client Enterprise Architecture, Program Management, Information Security, and Application Development teams.
We are uniquely prepared to provide recommendations and lessons learned from real-world implementations.
We know you, because we were you
Ocelot Consulting’s senior leadership is proud of our backgrounds rooted in Enterprise IT. We’ve cultivated a deep appreciation for what makes successful (and unsuccessful) partnerships. We understand the opportunities and the challenges of transforming established corporations.
Ocelot Consulting strives to be the type of company that our founders always wanted as a partner.
What we are…
- Partner to deliver strategic initiatives
- Able to embrace each client's unique needs
- Technology agnostic
- Engineering to the core
What we are not…
- Staffing agency, staff augmentation, or offshoring
- One-size-fits-all processes or methodologies
- Technology reseller
- All sales and marketing
Our goal is to get better, together
We not only deliver on our commitments, but we care just as much about developing the skills and capabilities of our clients.
While collaborating, we provide coaching, training, and mentoring to ensure that our clients are fully prepared to support, run, and maintain the solutions after our engagement is complete.
