Byond Group acquires CoStratify, uniting strategy and delivery for end-to-end transformation

The acquisition brings independent transformation advisory into Byond Group — so clients can move from strategy to delivery to lasting adoption with a single, accountable partner.

We’re delighted to announce the acquisition of CoStratify, an independent transformation consultancy. The move unites strategic advisory with technology delivery under one roof, enabling us to support clients across the full arc of change — from early strategic thinking through to implementation, adoption and ongoing care.

Closing the gap between strategy and delivery

Most transformation stumbles in the space between a plan and its execution — strategies that stall on the way to delivery, or technology that lands without the behavioural change to make it stick. By bringing CoStratify’s evidence-led advisory together with our delivery capability, clients gain a single partner accountable for outcomes at every stage: strategy, design, delivery, adoption and care.

What CoStratify brings

CoStratify is an independent consultancy that helps leaders shape and de-risk enterprise-wide change. Its evidence-driven approach spans business and operating-model clarity, transformation roadmaps, organisational readiness, and customer and employee experience — giving clients confidence in the decisions that matter before investment is committed. Where it adds genuine value, CoStratify applies AI and data-driven insight responsibly, to sharpen decisions rather than chase hype.

What it means for clients

  • Engage earlier, at a strategic level. Independent advice grounded in evidence, not product — from the boardroom down.
  • One continuous journey. No hand-offs between “the strategy firm” and “the delivery firm”; one team accountable end to end.
  • Investment aligned to outcomes. Technology choices tied to clearly defined business goals, reducing programme risk.
  • Change that sticks. Adoption designed for people from the outset, for higher satisfaction and measurable return.

 

“Great technology has never been the hard part — the value is unlocked when strategy, delivery and adoption move as one. CoStratify lets us start the conversation with insight, then stay with our clients all the way to lasting results.”
