Oxford Academic Technology (OXACT)...

...is an independent specialist consultancy, with the knowledge and experience to ensure that Information Technology (IT) in educational institutions is being run effectively and efficiently. We primarily work with the maintained and private education sector (schools, colleges and universities). Our philosophy is to work closely with you, so that we develop a complete picture of the ethos, environment and objectives of your institution and ensure it has the systems and technology it really needs.

As a senior member of staff of an educational institution you may be nervous about using an external consultant. This may be because you are not sure of what consultancy involves, perceive consultancy as expensive or perhaps you have had a previous poor experience with an IT or management consultant who knew little of the complexities of an educational establishment.


OXACT is a company specialising in the education sector. We believe in working closely with your organisation so that the outcome of the consultancy process is successful. In order to do this we will spend time with you to understand the motivation, culture, history and goals of your institution, it's staff and students. This time will allow us to define and agree roles so that everyone involved understands what we are there to accomplish, what tasks we will carry out, what tasks you will be expected to perform, and where the boundaries lie.
By doing this we can help you to establish a mental picture of the desired result. This creates a common goal that everyone can agree on and work towards.
