Industries we work in

No, and we would be cautious of a consultancy claiming deep specialisation in ten sectors at once. What differs by industry is the constraint set — regulation, data sensitivity, availability expectation, change window — not the engineering. We are explicit about which of those we know well and which we would need to learn from your team.

The obligations and the cost of failure, mostly. A retail checkout outage and a clinical system outage are both incidents, but they warrant different architecture, different change control and different recovery objectives. Those constraints shape the design; the underlying patterns are largely shared.

Usually yes. The ten pages here are the sectors we are asked about most often, not a restriction. The first consultation will establish whether your constraint set is one we can advise on credibly, and we will say so if it is not.

We do not publish case studies, and we do not name clients. Where we can describe relevant work, we do so in a consultation with the identifying detail removed and the client's consent. We would rather say that plainly than present anonymised work as more than it is.

We describe practices rather than credentials. Where a regulation or control set applies to your estate, we design toward it and prepare the evidence trail — but we do not represent NG&NR as holding certifications it has not been awarded.

The service pages describe what we do. These pages describe the constraints a sector imposes on that work, and which services are usually engaged first. Most engagements start from a service and are shaped by an industry, or the reverse.

Yes, and regulation is usually a design input rather than an obstacle. The mistake we see most often is treating compliance as a review at the end, which is the point at which findings are most expensive to act on. Where an obligation constrains architecture, it should be established before the architecture.

Frequently that is the arrangement. We hold no vendor partnerships and take no commissions, so we have no interest in displacing an incumbent who is performing. Where one is not, we will say so with the evidence rather than the assertion.

With the constraint you are actually experiencing rather than the sector. If releases are slow, that is a delivery problem; if the estate cannot answer a question, that is a data problem. The first consultation is free and its main purpose is establishing which problem you have.

No. Pricing is transparent, published and includes GST, and it does not vary by sector or by how regulated you are. What varies is scope, because a regulated estate usually requires more evidence and more careful sequencing.
