“We brought in all the countries of the community of our secret weapons: the books, the cultural programs, the technical assistance in agriculture. Concerts, exhibitions, debates are continuously present in the factory. The library is made up of tens of thousands of books and magazines from all around the world. In Olivetti work intellectuals, writers, artists, some of them at apical level. The culture here has a lot of value ”. “A factory cannot look only for the index of profits. But even to distribute wealth, culture, services, democracy”

(Adriano Olivetti)

Collaborative consulting & Partecipation at: round tables – steering committee – brainstorm – feasability studies – … 
An “old idea” that our experiences indicate as an intrinsic value: from” external “to the customer, be an alter ego that can bring value to the discussions.

  • Dialectic attendance with competence to: Steering Committee, WIP committes, development programs, brainstorming, feasibility studies, sharing of experiences.
  • A competente participation not only in ICT context, but acting as an end-user customer that uses the implemented business processes
  • Be somewhat jokingly but professionally, a sparring-partners, sometimes the devil’s advocate (Mr. no), the one who expresses doubts or the resistant to changes or vice versa “too” geared for a change maybe risky

Other specialized engagements
Leveraging expertise, maybe less focused on Information Technology, deliver services that sometimes bring to the Customer a significant value, for example:

  • PA local support for productive activities for goods and services.
  • But that’s not all: even interior design, advertising and graphic design and communication in certain cases
