PMO and Delivery Consultancy for Payments and Fintech

Quantum Consultancy brings over 25 years of payments delivery experience to UK payments and fintech organisations. Our directors have led PMOs and delivery teams at major payment technology providers, running Tier 1 merchant onboarding, payment platform implementations, terminal estate roll-outs and PCI DSS-compliant programmes where the margin for error is small and the commercial stakes are high. We now bring that experience to your projects, PMO and reporting.

Our approach

How we work

  1. Assess

    We review your delivery, governance and reporting against what payments programmes need: compliance, cut-over and trading continuity.

  2. Plan

    We agree governance, roll-out and cut-over plans with your operations, engineering and vendor partners.

  3. Deliver

    We run or support delivery, with risk and change controlled and cut-over scheduled outside trading hours where needed.

  4. Hand over

    We embed BAU processes, such as key injection and terminal deployment, so your teams can run and scale them.

Who it's for

Built for payments and fintech teams

Payment service providers, acquirers, payment technology vendors, fintechs and merchants with large payment estates across the UK. Typically Heads of Delivery, PMO leads, COOs and CTOs who need experienced people who already understand PCI-regulated, high-availability environments.

Do you only work with payments companies?

No. Payments and fintech is where our directors built their careers, so it is where we bring the deepest experience, but our PMO, transformation and reporting services work across sectors.

Do you understand PCI DSS?

Yes. Our directors have delivered PCI DSS-compliant payment solutions and P2PE migrations for Tier 1 clients. We are not a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA), so we work alongside your QSA and compliance teams.

Can you roll out terminals without disrupting trading?

Yes. We plan roll-outs store by store and schedule cut-over and remediation outside trading hours, as we have done for national retail estates.

Can you work as a delivery partner?

Yes. We deliver defined workstreams or projects for payments consultancies, systems integrators and technology providers, under your brand or ours.

Can you help with payments reporting and reconciliation?

Yes. We build Power BI reporting that reconciles billing, estate and revenue data, with automated feeds from your systems.

How much does payments delivery consultancy cost?

We work on day rate, fixed fee or retained terms, depending on the engagement. Book a discovery call and we will give you a clear quote.
