ShabDigital | Data | Cyber

Independent consultancy

Decisions your board can stand behind.

Shab works with organisations that have outgrown their systems and are carrying more risk than they can see. Three practices — digital, data and cyber — run by the people who do the work.

Three practices

Most problems sit between them. So do we.

A failed migration is rarely just a technology problem, and a breach is rarely just a security one. We take the whole picture.

  • Digital

    Get the change delivered, not just designed.


    • Target operating model and roadmap
    • Legacy replacement and cloud migration
    • Supplier selection and contract scrutiny
    • Delivery assurance on programmes in trouble
    Best for

    Leadership teams mid-programme who need an honest read before the next gate.

  • Data

    Numbers the business trusts enough to act on.


    • Data strategy, ownership and governance
    • Platform and warehouse architecture
    • Reporting that answers real questions
    • AI readiness — and where it is not worth it
    Best for

    Organisations with plenty of dashboards and no shared version of the truth.

  • Cyber

    Know what would actually hurt, and fix that first.


    • Security posture and control reviews
    • Third-party and supply chain risk
    • Incident response planning and rehearsal
    • Compliance work that survives an audit
    Best for

    Teams facing a customer security review, an audit, or a board asking hard questions.


How we work

Short engagements. Clear handover.

We are not trying to live in your organisation. The aim is for your own people to carry the work after we leave.

  1. Read the ground

    Two to three weeks with your people, your systems and your contracts. You get what we found, including the parts nobody wanted to write down.

  2. Agree what matters

    A ranked, costed set of moves — with the ones we would not spend money on named just as plainly. You decide; we are not paid by the recommendation.

  3. Deliver and hand over

    We do the work alongside your team, then leave them the documentation, the decisions and the reasoning behind both.

Tell us what is keeping you up.

Thirty minutes, no charge. If it is not something we should take on, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
