What Grex Consulting does

Grex Consulting is a boutique ICT consulting and advisory firm founded in 2015 and headquartered in Sydney, Australia (Level 9, 92 Pitt Street). The firm provides bespoke advisory services spanning technology strategy, business planning, M&A, government advisory, digital infrastructure, and communications networks to clients across Australia, New Zealand, and the broader Asia-Pacific region. Its four target verticals are telecommunications, technology, power and utilities, and government agencies.

The firm does not disclose a proprietary technology platform; its offering is built on senior advisory expertise that combines deep ICT legal and technical knowledge with commercial acumen. Service modules include Technology Strategy and Business Planning, M&A Advisory (technical, operational, financial, and commercial due diligence), Government Advisory (including business case design and checkpoint gateway assurance), Digital Infrastructure and Communications Networks (fixed and wireless), Digital Utilities, and Corporate and Commercial Strategy. The firm cites a track record of advising on over $20 billion AUD in M&A and strategic initiatives over the last five years and over $8 billion AUD in acquisitions across Asia-Pacific over the past three years, figures that reflect client deal volume rather than firm revenue.

Grex operates on a professional services revenue model with bespoke, quote-based engagements and a sales-led, relationship-driven go-to-market. The firm is privately held, has 11-50 employees, and discloses no institutional investors, parent company, named customers, or management team. Client acquisition is conducted through direct channels (website contact form, phone, email) with no disclosed marketing, partnership, or channel programs.
