System Industrie Electronic GmbH

The journey of The SIE Group began with a simple yet powerful observation by its founders, Dave Harrington and Mike Kearns. As seasoned advisors in both public and private sector management solutions, they had witnessed numerous projects, some successful and others that fell short of their goals. Through these experiences, they identified the two key ingredients that consistently separated triumph from failure: genuine expertise and the empowerment to act on that knowledge. This realization became the cornerstone of their new venture. In 2014, Dave Harrington took the leap and founded SIE while supporting the General Services Administration's (GSA) IT Category Manager. This foundational experience provided an unparalleled view into the complexities of government IT, allowing SIE to cultivate a deep understanding of software licensing strategy and cost savings, which would become a core pillar of their expertise.

From these focused beginnings, The SIE Group has blossomed into a trusted, multi-functional IT advisory firm. The company was built on the principle that a consulting engagement is only truly successful if it leaves the client in a better state—as a stronger organization with more capable employees. This client-centric philosophy is more than just a business strategy; it's a deeply ingrained commitment to fostering lasting improvement. The team at SIE is composed of best-in-class advisors, many of whom honed their skills at top-tier firms. They bring not only deep industry and category expertise but also the authority to recommend decisive action and course corrections when needed. This blend of public-sector experience and private-sector insight allows them to craft innovative and effective solutions for the entire acquisition lifecycle, from initial strategy and spend analytics to supplier selection and post-award management. Their mission is guided by the core values of Service, Integrity, and Excellence, ensuring they not only achieve results but also build enduring trust with every client they serve.
