Shioda Consultancy

What Shioda Consultancy does

Shioda Consultancy is a privately held Dutch ICT infrastructure consultancy headquartered in Hilversum, Netherlands, founded in 2003 and operating with approximately 10 employees. The firm delivers total ICT infrastructure solutions — including project advisory, hybrid cloud / hybrid working deployments, system, network and server management, data backup and recovery, secure data deletion, webhosting, IPv4 leasing, and PIN-over-IP (PoIP) payment connectivity — to Dutch businesses with 2 to 500 workstations. Its product portfolio is built around Microsoft technologies (Microsoft 365, Windows 11, Windows Server, Active Directory, Exchange) bundled with Lenovo hardware under a co-marketed hybrid working stack, and operationalized through TeamViewer-based remote support and Blancco-based secure data erasure. The firm holds ISO27001 certification and maintains a single-contact-point account model across its ~18 named customers, which span SMBs and a small number of larger Dutch enterprises (e.g., Lucas Bols, HG International, Maxxium Nederland).

Shioda monetizes through a mix of professional services engagements (project guidance, advisory, migrations), recurring managed services contracts (infrastructure monitoring, backup, webhosting, IPv4 lease, PoIP transaction fees), and resale of hardware and brand-independent software. Only webhosting pricing is publicly disclosed, ranging from EUR 7.50 to EUR 45 per month across four tiers; all other services are quoted on request. The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven: direct sales, office and phone contact, and a TeamViewer-enabled remote support channel, with the company website (shioda.com) functioning as the primary top-of-funnel asset.

The business is constrained in scale by a single-country, single-office footprint and a small team. There is no disclosed funding, no M&A history, no public listing, and no headcount growth signal in the available data, while the customer base remains concentrated within the Dutch SMB and lower mid-market segment. The principal strategic posture visible from the data is deepening integration with Microsoft and Lenovo around hybrid work rather than expanding headcount, geography, or capital base.
