EPM and analytics consulting, done properly
Many of our clients come to us after a difficult EPM or BI project: a tool that never got adopted, a dashboard nobody trusts, a vendor that moved on. Our job is to get those systems working and keep them that way.
Our Story
Alpine Business Consulting is a Zurich-based firm focused on enterprise performance management, business intelligence, and the data systems that sit underneath them.
Our consultants spent years at larger consulting firms and software vendors before starting Alpine. Along the way they saw the patterns that cause projects to fail: configuration shortcuts, handoffs to staff who never met the client, and documentation that never gets written.
We built the firm to avoid those patterns. We agree on scope and price before we start, keep the same people on a project from kickoff to go-live, and hand over documentation and training so your team can run the system afterwards.
We work from Zurich and serve clients across Switzerland and the rest of Europe. We deliberately stay focused on EPM, analytics, and data so the people on your project have done similar work on similar platforms before.
How We Work
A few principles that shape how we run every engagement.
Senior People Do the Work
The consultants who scope a project are the ones who deliver it. We keep the same team in place from start to finish rather than handing work to staff you never met.
Fixed Price Where We Can
Wherever the scope allows, we agree on a fixed price before we start. If we underestimate the effort, that cost is ours to absorb, not an unexpected line on your invoice.
Your Team Stays in Control
We document the system and train your people as we go, so you can maintain and extend it without depending on us for every change.
Engagement Models
Project Types
- Fixed-price projects with clear scope and milestones
- Time-and-materials for advisory work where scope shifts
- Monthly retainers for ongoing support and questions
- Hybrid arrangements when projects need flexibility
How We Show Up
- On-site when it helps, remote when it does not
- Weekly calls and written status updates
- Demos every two weeks so you see progress
- Training built in throughout, not just at the end
Our Location
Our office in Zurich puts us in the middle of European business. Good trains, good flights, and a timezone that works for calls from London to Dubai.
Zurich is full of banks, insurers, and multinationals dealing with exactly the problems we solve: complex reporting requirements, multiple currencies, and data scattered across systems.
We travel when projects need it and work remotely when they do not. Either way, you get the same team from start to finish.
