AI Agents Automation

McKenna Consultants develops autonomous AI agents, WOPI integrations, Microsoft Office Add-Ins, and composable B2B eCommerce platforms for enterprise clients.

About

McKenna Consultants is a UK-based custom software consultancy headquartered in Harrogate, with 24 years of enterprise software delivery. Their work spans four defined specialisms: WOPI (Cloud Storage Partner Program) integrations that embed Microsoft Office for the web inside SaaS platforms, complex Microsoft Office Add-In development for Outlook, Excel, Word, and PowerPoint, composable B2B eCommerce built on Elastic Path, and autonomous agentic AI development.

They describe themselves as operating at Level 3 on their own AI Maturity Pyramid — having transitioned from a traditional development model to an AI-first operation internally — and apply the same approach to client engagements. Their developers use AI coding tools daily to deliver enterprise-quality software faster and at lower cost. They also offer Agile and OKR transformation consulting alongside their technical services.

Clients include Workiro, IMI Norgren, AuditBoard, and Astrak Group.
