Cenergi

What Cenergi does

Cenergi is a privately held, founder-led management consulting firm specializing in IT operational efficiency for mid-market and enterprise organizations. Founded by Jeff Sharon, a 25-year IT industry veteran, the firm targets IT executives, IT managers, and senior business stakeholders, with explicit positioning as a problem-solver for IT professionals themselves — a niche shaped by the founder's observation that IT departments face chronic under-support despite solving problems for the rest of the business.

The firm's offering is organized into four consulting service categories — Strategy, Operations, Digital Trust, and Cost & Run Optimization — covering IT assessment and roadmapping, cloud strategy, digital transformation, cybersecurity posture, regulatory compliance, and software license advisory. Underlying the consulting work is Cenerview, a proprietary application rationalization framework used for IT asset optimization and ITAM practice building, complemented by internally codified digital transformation and cybersecurity posture assessment methodologies. Cenergi also operates a proprietary e-learning platform hosted on LearnWorlds infrastructure for recurring delivery of IT training content, and a SOC S.O.S. sub-brand for emergency IT support.

Cenergi monetizes through custom-priced professional services engagements billed monthly, alongside the subscription-based e-learning platform. Go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, beginning with a free discovery call by the founder and proceeding through a three-step evaluation and implementation process. The disclosed office footprint is a single US operation (Seattle/Tacoma contact number), with Terms & Conditions referencing England and Wales governing law; the firm has 1–10 employees, is privately held with no disclosed institutional funding, and lists Disney as a named testimonial customer.
