What Hikari does

Hikari is an Irish IT services firm founded in 2018 and headquartered in Dublin, specializing in data analytics and business process improvement built primarily on the Microsoft Power Platform. Following its April 2021 acquisition of ProcessUs — an Irish-Dutch software development startup focused on process re-engineering and data-driven solutions — the company repositioned itself as an end-to-end analytics and process engineering provider for enterprise clients. Its service mix combines consulting-led analytics work with Power Platform implementation and process re-engineering, delivered through a direct enterprise field-sales motion targeting organizations seeking to operationalize data-driven decision making.

The company operated as a private, for-profit entity with a small team of approximately 20 employees after the ProcessUs integration, serving customers in Ireland, the Netherlands, and the United States. Revenue is generated through professional services engagements rather than product licensing; pricing is not publicly disclosed. In July 2025, Hikari was acquired by Evcoms, a Wicklow-based company that announced plans to create 20 additional jobs worldwide as part of the deal. Following the transaction, Hikari operates as a subsidiary of Evcoms rather than as an independent company, and its current go-forward strategy is set within the acquirer's portfolio context. The company's stated go-to-market emphasis on Microsoft Power Platform and process engineering remains the principal differentiator versus generalist IT consultancies.
