Z Ware helps organisations modernise with clarity and confidence.
We work in complex environments where risk matters and decisions have long-term consequences. Our role is to help leaders see reality, make sound decisions, and move forward with confidence.


Modernisation is not a technology problem alone.
It is shaped by architecture, teams, and decision-making. Sustainable progress comes from clarity, practical design, and removing the constraints that slow the delivery for value.


After working for years in the software industry and witnessing a growing trend of customers being treated as commodities, Phill believed it could and should be done differently. Stepping out on his own in 2011, and working out of a Melbourne garage with a second-hand laptop, Z Ware was born. Z Ware had a single clear and simple mission:
BUILD TRUSTED, COLLABORATIVE AND TRANSPARENT PARTNERSHIPS THAT DELIVER TO ENABLE OUR PARTNERS TO MEET THEIR CURRENT AND FUTURE NEEDS.
Since then, organisations have seen the value in this mission and Z Ware has grown to encompass multiple levels of industry, corporate and government partners.
We share knowledge and ideas with other software industry professionals and providers and provide honest and open expertise that enables our partners to deliver. We have established a dedicated team of people working across Australia to continue to deliver on our mission.
We work with organisations of all shapes and sizes but specialise with enterprise and government that operate in complex and constrained environments. They engage Z Ware when clarity is needed before action.
