Who we are
A research-led consultancy, from Cambridge to London.
Ergon Analysis Ltd was founded in Cambridge in 2018, shaped by the research-driven mindset of postdoctoral researchers at the Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge. The team brings more than 15 years of combined experience in academic research, operations management, and project delivery.
We bring the depth and discipline of applied R&D to consultancy engagements — ensuring recommendations are grounded in transparent assumptions, interpretable data, and a clear logic of value creation. This distinguishes our approach: a rigorous method combined with operational realism.
Today, based in London, we work with international clients and public-sector authorities across engineering, sustainability, and supply chain systems, with a particular focus on agri-food value chains.
Our approach
-
01
Clarify the decision context first, then build an analytical workplan with transparent assumptions and clear validation steps.
-
02
Where evidence is uncertain, use structured expert elicitation to reduce bias.
-
03
Map value chains and dependencies to make risks and bottlenecks explicit, using hotspot analysis to focus recommendations where they generate the greatest value.
-
04
Deliver decision-ready outputs — feasibility studies, investment cases, and implementation roadmaps that clients can act on directly.
