The smarter team

We believe smart people and excellent communications are the ‘essential’ ingredients to underpin the delivery of every successful programme. The KA2 ServiceNow, business and technology domain experts are all seasoned practitioners whose combined insights and experience enable them to very quickly identify the precise blend of skills and expertise required to deliver a robust ServiceNow solution that is tailored just for you. 

We provide both strategic and tactical counsel and always lead by example. We encourage, cajole, train and mentor, and all are ready, willing to roll up our sleeves when the going gets tough. Honesty and integrity are our core values. We confront the issues head-on and provide objective advice and guidance, even when it may not be what our clients want to hear. Our unique team and proven ServiceNow experience have enabled many firms to move from being restrictive, risk-averse cultures into enlightened, forward-thinking organisations. KA2 for ServiceNow is the smartest thing to do. 

Chriss Andrews - CEO

Founder and CEO of KA2. Leading all aspects of our change driven technology programmes. A passion for rugby and travelling, Chriss isn't afraid to 'try' new strategies on a mission to create winning teams - for KA2 and our clients.

Chriss Andrews

CEO

https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrissandrews/

My passions are people and business. I am very proud to have been responsible for creating a number of successful organisations, all of which have revolved around helping others to achieve their own business and personal development goals. With honesty and integrity central to everything I do, KA2 is another significant milestone on my own development journey. The company has an impressive track record, and over the years we have developed deep and solid relationships with all our clients. I am committed to creating a dynamic, collaborative environment for both my team and clients alike. A key goal is to always recognise and reward both individual and team contributions. Having fun is also high on my agenda, I enjoy a challenge and love learning. Every day is a new adventure and draws on over 35 years of experience gained from building and leading a number of successful entities. I continue to be very excited about the opportunities KA2 represents for everyone involved. Change is in my DNA because as part of an RAF family, I moved around a lot during my early years, before going on to study modern languages in Aberdeen. In 1984, I launched my first company, Church International, which is now a very established and successful recruitment business. I love rugby and the arts.

Jean-Marc Jefferson - Head of Sustainability and Innovation

Jean-Marc has spent some 20 years running business units, sales and marketing teams, and service operations for a number of large IT infrastructure, communications and systems integrators. And then in 2012, he became interested in sustainability and IT.

Jean-Marc Jefferson

Head of Sustainability and Innovation

https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeanmarcjefferson/

And then in 2012, two seemingly unrelated events set Jean-Marc on the path of Sustainable IT.

The first was when re-surfacing from a wreck dive off Malta, he saw a Leatherback turtle appear beside the dive boat asking for help. She had a fishing line wrapped around her rear left fin, starving the limb of blood. Immediately, Jean-Marc alerted his dive buddy, who duly jumped in to remove the line. Once freed, the turtle flipped over and with a wave of her fin, she disappeared beneath the waves.

The second was when researching what companies did with IT assets when they no longer had a use for them. Jean-Marc had a dawning realisation that very little was being done around the return journey for unwanted IT – by clients, integrators and manufacturers. This got him thinking and before long he was set on contributing to the development of solutions around Circularity in IT.

Initially, he figured that if we could measure and quantify the impact of IT on the planet, we could start to manage this impact positively. This led him to start providing clients with meaningful and tangible metrics around what IT carbon footprints look like and how we can reuse, repurpose, resell, recover, and recycle IT. He soon realised that we needed to do it at scale, so he looked at ways to automate the journey.

This is when Jean-Marc teamed up with KA2 and COzPro was born.

Jean-Marc says – Since 2015 I have spent many hours working out what I could personally do to advance the cause of Sustainability in IT. If ever I think the task is so large that I cannot possibly make a difference, I just think back to the turtle and it revitalises me. We can all make a difference, one turtle…. or one IT asset at a time.

Jean-Marc has a string of notable achievements which include:

  • Chief designer of COPro- The Environmental App for ServiceNow, which enables clients to measure, manage and report on their IT CO2 impact.
  • Contributor to and reviewer of the ITIL 4 Sustainability Module.
  • Helping one turtle.

Outside of business, Jean-Marc chairs the Maritime Archaeology Sea Trust (UK Registered Charity # 1140497) and he is also a TDI and BSAC Technical Diver (# 607791,  #A8179923)
