HARA Consulting

What HARA Consulting does

HARA Consulting is a French IT services company (ESN / société de conseil en ingénierie informatique) founded in 2021 and headquartered at 9 Place Broglie, Strasbourg. The company operates as a Société à Mission registered under Article 1835 of the French Civil Code, embedding a solidarity mandate into its articles of association that pairs commercial IT consulting with social impact delivered through a network of 30+ partner associations. It is structured as a SASU with €10,000 of capital and remains privately held with no external institutional investors disclosed.

HARA delivers services through two commercial modes. The first, Assistance Technique, integrates HARA consultants directly into client teams under flexible 3-to-36-month missions billed on a daily rate. The second, Prestation au Forfait, delivers turnkey fixed-price projects with commitments on scope, timeline, and budget. The technical offering is organized into three expertise domains: Pilotage et Transformation (project management, business analysis, ERP and digital transformation consulting); Intelligence Artificielle et Ingénierie Logicielle (AI integration using OpenAI, TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Hugging Face; data engineering, BI, DevOps, and cloud engineering); and Infrastructure et Cybersécurité (systems, networks, virtualization, storage, DBA, SOC analysis, IAM, and information security).

The company generates revenue from a horizontal-segment enterprise client base across banking (Société Générale, Crédit Mutuel, Groupe BPCE), insurance (AXA), industrial and manufacturing (ArcelorMittal, Liebherr, Siemens), professional services (Fiducial, Apave), and pharmaceuticals (Lilly), serving 50+ clients with a headcount of 100+ collaborators and 200+ projects delivered since founding. Distribution is direct via six regional agencies across France (Strasbourg, Lyon, Paris, Dijon, Nice, Aix-en-Provence), supported by field sales and an emerging inside-sales motion (SDR hiring). Marketing relies primarily on the company website, careers page, LinkedIn, and the mission-driven employer brand as a differentiator. The R&D center develops solidarity CRM tooling and provides free IT maintenance to partner associations, partly enabled by the Crédit Impôt Innovation label obtained in 2025.
