Headcount: 43 (+267%)
Specialism: Microsoft Dynamics
HQ: London
Our figures can’t keep up with the furious growth of this eponymously named London-based Microsoft Dynamics partner.
Founded by Steve Snowden in 2013, Snowden Consulting’s average monthly headcount leapt from six to 22 between calendar 2020 and 2023. It now employs 52 full-time employees, however, it told us.
The London-based outfit, which is known more formally as SNCL, has recently expanded its repertoire to span the full suite of Microsoft applications (see Q&A below).
Q&A with Snowden Consulting Founder and CEO Steve Snowden
What’s driven your lightning growth?
Nearly all our projects now involve multiple Microsoft applications. ERP, CRM, Power Platform, AI and managed services all need to work together to give our clients true digital transformation. With this demand we have increased our capabilities across the board to ensure we can deliver a complete offering.
What’s your biggest growth bet for 2025?
AI in its many forms, but for us it’s how businesses can use these tools for process and system optimisation – the implementation process is obviously a key part of the project, but to be able to give our clients the visibility they need (and what to do with it) to increase efficiency or make cost savings. I can’t think of any business that would turn down the opportunity of return on investment on day one – and having tools in place to drive continuous improvement
What was your biggest tech let down of 2024?
For me it’s not necessarily a tech let down, but what I refer to as “Linkedin Instagram” – I see pretty wild claims from companies about what they can do, and you can literally claim to do anything with no check. This diminishes the value of what a good partner can do, leads to mistrust within a global platform and can be a factor in poor implementations.
Tell us one thing you have planned for the next 12 months
We will be launching our own process optimisation offering – I worked in manufacturing for 20 years before ERP, and the team has massive cross-industry business experience. We know some of the benefits we can drive from the data people have in their systems – and looking forward to show casing this – so watch this space.
