About Sage
Sage Solutions Consulting is a comprehensive business IT advisory and consulting practice. Our work has covered everything from finance transformation, inventory management and regulatory compliance to every imaginable aspect of security. We have a unique capability with SAP implementations and security design. We speak fluent IT . . . in a way clients can understand and measure in their bottom line.

Origins
After 5 years as an SAP North America employee and then doing client side SAP security implementations Hugh Jetha founded Sage Solutions Consulting in 2002. SSC began doing enterprise implementations with Coca Cola, Limited Brands, KPMG, J&J and even the United Nations. In fact, SAP North America has been a SSC client for several years. Focus and high value outcomes led clients to ask for expanded engagements and over time the business evolved into a comprehensive IT advisory practice.



“We’re focused on helping companies make their operational and strategic investments in technology both productive and profitable.”
~ Hugh Jetha, CEO & Founder



Going Forward
With a stable client base and experienced leadership in place we’re continuing to grow responsibly. A natural extension of our consulting work has motivated our expansion into managed services, IT staffing and fractional leadership services.

We’ve made some acquisitions that were compatible with our way of doing business and will consider future partnerships that fit our criteria.
