CSI IT

What CSI IT does

CSI IT, operating as Consulting Solutions (with website csifl.com redirecting to consultingsolutions.com), is a US-based technology consultancy and talent firm headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida. Founded in 2000, the firm provides specialized consulting services across six practice areas: Digital Transformation, ERP, Cloud & Data, Cybersecurity, AI & Advanced Analytics, and Energy & Engineering. Its client roster includes enterprise and government accounts such as Google, Johnson & Johnson, PNC, US Bank, US Federal Reserve, US Army Cyber Command, Caterpillar, BlueCross BlueShield, Cox Enterprises, AutoNation, and e.l.f. Cosmetics, spanning financial services, insurance, manufacturing, retail, government, and consumer products verticals. The firm's positioning centers on the combination of large-firm capability with boutique accountability, emphasizing embedded consulting teams that maintain continuity through delivery rather than transitioning work to junior staff.

Service delivery is organized through four engagement models: Strategic Advisory, Managed Services, Project-Based Delivery, and Specialized Talent. These models define how CSI IT structures work with clients across strategy formulation, ongoing operations support, discrete project implementations, and technology talent augmentation. Practice areas function as distinct, combinable service lines, allowing clients to engage individual capabilities or integrated multi-domain programs. The firm's value proposition explicitly targets organizations with complex technology execution risk—particularly those in regulated sectors—where deep domain expertise, project delivery discipline, and team continuity create disproportionate value relative to generalist advisory alternatives.

Commercially, CSI IT operates a direct enterprise and government sales motion with no channel or marketplace distribution and no publicly disclosed pricing. Revenue derives from professional services engagements (project-based and retainer-style), with named delivered outcomes including a $1 billion annual savings result on a big-data provider-performance engagement for a large US insurer. The firm has pursued growth through both organic practice expansion (including the addition of AI & Advanced Analytics as a featured practice) and inorganic roll-up activity, completing five acquisitions between 2016 and 2018 (The Nuss Group, The Vine LLC, Technical Resource Group, Meridian Technologies, and JDC Group) and securing a $6 million funding round in February 2021.
