Deloitte is the brand under which tens of thousands of dedicated professionals in independent firms throughout the world collaborate to provide audit, consulting, financial advisory, risk management, and tax services to selected clients. These firms are members of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu (DTT), a Swiss Verein. Each member firm provides services in a particular geographic area and is subject to the laws and professional regulations of the particular country or countries in which it operates. DTT helps coordinate the activities of the member firms but does not itself provide services to clients. DTT and the member firms are separate and distinct legal entities, which cannot obligate the other entities. DTT and each DTT member firm are only liable for their own acts or omissions, and not those of each other. Each of the member firms operates under the names “Deloitte,” “Deloitte & Touche,” “Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu,” or other related names. Each DTT member firm is structured differently in accordance with national laws, regulations, customary practice, and other factors, and may secure the provision of professional services in their territories through subsidiaries, affiliates and/or other entities.

ICT is our environment but business is our driver.

Information technology is becoming inextricably linked more and more with the business processes of many, if not all, companies. IT has grown steadily into a mature industry, with an offering that is becoming increasingly industrialised, as well as partly standardised. Many companies, driven by a growing and globalised economy, are now searching much more actively for new products and services, as well as for ways of bringing them to a customer base that more often than not is international. This in turn can result in other, more sophisticated information technology solutions.

It is precisely in this area that Crossroad Consulting intends to provide expert advice, using an enthusiastic team of specialists who have a passion for IT and business processes and who want to deliver tangible results. With its highly-qualified consultants and broad but pragmatic approach to tackling problems and providing advice, Crossroad Consulting is able to make an active contribution to solving the burning IT issues of today and tomorrow. We pride ourselves on thinking along with our clients, with ICT managers and professionals, with business leaders and business unit managers. Crossroad Consulting has a unique blend of skills that deliver added value exactly where the client needs it. With great strengths both on the business side and in IT, we are able to bridge the gap between these two vital business functions, helping to develop high-performance information technology geared to achieve business objectives. That's what Crossroad Consulting is all about: providing strength in the interface between business and ICT.
