Key takeaways
- The Accelerator Program is Kentico's framework for launching a new Xperience by Kentico site quickly, in as little as six weeks.
- A standard delivery covers a foundational website, widgets and templates, a content model and navigation, analytics and SEO tracking, and handover training.
- Content migration, major redesigns, full accessibility work and complex integrations sit outside the standard scope and are scoped separately.

- It suits organisations that need a modern digital foundation without a long project cycle.
Dapth is now a certified Kentico Accelerator Expert Partner, and among the few consultancies in Australia to hold this qualification alongside Gold Partner status. Here's what that means if you're planning a launch on Xperience by Kentico.
What is the Kentico Partner Accelerator Program?
The Kentico Partner Accelerator Program connects organisations with certified implementation partners who can deliver a new site on Xperience by Kentico in as little as six weeks. It's a structured delivery model with a defined scope, built to remove the risk and drag that often make CMS projects feel like a burden.
Kentico provides the framework and the certification, and certified partners carry an Accelerator Expert badge. The qualification recognises partners with the processes and technical depth to deliver at pace without cutting corners.
"Most digital projects don’t fail because of the technology. They fail because of scope creep, shifting timelines, and handoffs that leave the client’s team completely lost.
The Kentico Partner Accelerator model is built to fix that.”
Phil Allen - Founder, Director & Chief Strategist at Dapth
What do you get with an Accelerator delivery?
The Accelerator model focuses on what you need to go live confidently and quickly. A standard Accelerator delivery includes:
- A solid, foundational website built on Xperience by Kentico
- Essential widgets and page templates tailored to your brand
- A clear, well-structured content model and navigation
- Analytics, SEO and performance tracking configured from day one
- Handover documentation and live training, so your team is confident from launch
Exact deliverables are agreed with your partner before work starts.
How does an Accelerator project work?
- Choose your partner. Review certified Accelerator Partners and find the right fit for your goals and industry.
- Define your scope. We review your needs and confirm the project fits the Accelerator model, so there are no surprises later.
- Get started. Development begins with clear deliverables and a defined timeline.
- Go live. Your site launches, in as little as six weeks, with training and documentation so your team can run it independently.
What's outside the standard scope?
The Accelerator model is designed for focused, fast delivery. Some work falls outside the standard scope but can be added separately:
- Extensive design or brand redevelopment
- Content migration from legacy platforms
- Full accessibility compliance work
- Complex custom integrations or module rebuilds
- Multi-phase digital transformation projects
If you're moving from Kentico 13, content migration is part of a separate migration project: our Kentico 13 migration guide explains how that works.
Who is this right for?
The Accelerator model works best for organisations that need a modern, high-performing digital foundation without a nine-month project cycle. We work across a range of industries:
- Business Services
- Government & Municipal
- Health, Beauty & Medical
- Manufacturing
- Minerals & Mining
- Transport & Logistics
- Consumer Services
- IT
If you’re on a legacy CMS, considering a migration to Xperience by Kentico, or simply need a fast and reliable digital launch this model was built for you.
"The Accelerator program is a great fit for how we build on Xperience by Kentico.
The technical foundation is solid, the delivery model is tight, and it means our team can focus on what actually moves the needle for clients rather than getting bogged down in scope that should have been defined on day one."
Kereti Wharemate, Head of Technology, Dapth

How long does a Kentico Accelerator project take?
Kentico says Accelerator Partners can get a new site live on Xperience by Kentico in as little as six weeks. The exact timeline depends on the scope you agree with your partner. Work outside the standard scope, such as content migration or complex integrations, adds time.
Is content migration included in the Accelerator Program?
No. Content migration from legacy platforms sits outside the standard Accelerator scope, along with major redesigns, full accessibility compliance work and complex integrations. Each can be scoped separately with your partner, alongside or after the Accelerator launch.
How much does an Accelerator project cost?
Kentico doesn't set a price. Each Accelerator Partner works independently, so contracts, pricing and delivery are agreed directly between you and your partner. Your Xperience by Kentico licence is separate and depends on your tier, channels and hosting.
Who is the Accelerator model right for?
It suits organisations that need a modern website on Xperience by Kentico quickly and can work within a defined scope: a foundational site, templates, content model, tracking and training. Larger multi-phase programmes are better scoped as a full project.
