Clients tell us that several characteristics distinguish our work:
Hands-on involvement of senior professionals Large consulting firms typically put mid-level managers in charge of engagements. By contrast, each of our cases is led by a senior professional – usually a partner with many years of operating experience in addition to a long stint at one of the large consultancies such as Bain or Oliver Wyman. Close involvement by leaders with a few grey hairs allows us to better understand and address our clients’ challenges.
Lean, flexible model Lean teams allow us to shift course quickly as the circumstances change. Adapting to the client’s preferred working style, we can integrate closely with a client team or execute the work on our own. In all cases, regular communication ensures that our efforts are directed to the client’s highest priorities.
Clients appreciate that we go the extra mile for them, in our working relationship and our fee structure. We’re willing to develop incentive arrangements or even invest our own capital when appropriate. Deep experience and expertise Our partners and senior professionals have long experience as private equity investors, operating executives, and consultants. We have in-house expertise in consumer products and retail, manufacturing and distribution, business services, transportation and logistics, and pharmaceuticals and healthcare. We also draw on a group of technical and industry experts for special assignments.
Rigorous, pragmatic analysis We take pride in developing fact-based, thorough analysis that can inform better decisions and business outcomes. To efficiently focus the analytics, we leverage clients’ knowledge and data where appropriate, combining it with our own primary research. We believe that analysis must be pragmatic, serving to provide highly specific, actionable recommendations.
