D6 Consulting integrated into Arinco brand

Arinco is integrating D6 Consulting into the Arinco brand.

Arinco and D6 Consulting both operate under the Connetico brand, but as separate companies. The Connetico 'umbrella' comprises of Cevo, Arinco and D6 Consulting.

As part of this integration, the D6 Consulting brand will be retired, with all team members and capabilities transitioning under the Arinco name.

The combined organisation of approximately 220 employees will brings the teams together under one structure, providing customers with a single, integrated partner for business consulting, program delivery and technical expertise across Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365.

Joanne Spencer, CEO and co-founder of D6 Consulting, will transition into the role of AI transformation practice lead at Arinco.

“We’re pleased to welcome the D6 Consulting team and their exceptional capability in consulting and program delivery into Arinco,” said Chris Padgett, CEO at Arinco.

“This integration combines business consulting and technical expertise in one team. As Microsoft focuses more on AI-led transformation, this positions us to support our customers with both the business and technology outcomes they need and deliver larger, more complex programs end-to-end.”

“Joining Arinco is a natural next step for our team," said Spencer.

"We have already worked closely together on many customer engagements, and this integration gives us the scale and platform to help even more organisations achieve their transformation goals.”

The integration is effective from 1 November 2025, with integration activities already underway.

Last year, Marc Tricksey, sales director of Arinco, told techpartner.news that the partnership between the two companies has "done well".

"[D6 Consulting] have that focus and we see better adoption when we have the engagements that are hand in hand," he said.
