our history

Practiv was founded in 2000 by a small group of IT and business managers who had worked together on several successful and innovative e-Commerce projects.  In the midst of .com hysteria, the founders saw long term opportunity in the application of e business principles - evolving business, using technology to get closer to customers, streamline process, and increase margins.

Since then Practiv has grown consistently through the appreciation of some core values:

1. Our success is defined by our customers' results.
2. Realising results is a team effort.
3. We are technology experts, but more valuable is our expertise in how our customers can use technology to improve operation.
4. Our customers know more about their business than we do.
5. Respect the things we don’t know, that our customers do know.  Listen. We might learn something.

The Practiv Group has now developed in to an extensive and diverse business which supports Change Management, Business Process Design, IT Design and Development, Marketing Proposition Development, Campaign Management and more.  Our team are focused on improving our customers business, and all appreciate the value of each other’s skill set and the role they play.  Our technology staff offer an extensive skill set – covering business domain knowledge, as well as the major enterprise and emerging technologies – enabling them to add real value to our clients.

Our technical skills cover most of the mainstream enterprise technologies – an added advantage given the heterogeneous environments that have resulted from many mergers and acquisitions.  Members of our team are viewed by some of the key technology vendors, such as Microsoft as having industry-leading skills within the areas of SOA management and systems integration.
