What Cevo does

Cevo is an Australian-owned cloud consulting firm operating exclusively in the AWS ecosystem as an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Melbourne, the company delivers enterprise cloud transformation across four interconnected service practices: AI & Agentic Systems, Data Intelligence, Intelligent Modernisation, and Cloud Evolution. Technical depth centres on AWS-native architectures spanning serverless, containerised workloads (Amazon EKS), infrastructure-as-code (CDK, CloudFormation, Terraform), DevSecOps, AI/ML services (Amazon Bedrock, Textract, Comprehend), and modern data platforms (Snowflake, dbt).

The firm employs 51–100 staff holding 150+ AWS certifications across four Australian offices (Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra). Cevo monetises through two principal streams: project-based professional services engagements on time-and-materials or fixed-price contracts, and a Co-Ops managed services retainer covering security monitoring, cost optimisation, identity management, and continuous platform enhancement. Proprietary engagement frameworks include Nexus™, Co-Create (end-to-end product development), and Co-Ops.

Cevo focuses on three primary verticals — Financial Services, Government, and Education — with additional exposure to Retail, Energy & Utilities, and Independent Software Vendors. Customer base exceeds 450 organisations and includes major Australian banks, RMIT University, David Jones, PICA Group, and Fiduciary Financial Services (for which Cevo built moneyGPS, a digital advice platform). Multi-year enterprise contracts and consultative field sales dominate the go-to-market, complemented by AWS co-sell motion through Premier partner status. The firm is privately held with no disclosed external funding, operating through Cevo (Vic) Pty Ltd and Cevo (NSW) Pty Ltd.
