About Us
We are driven to helping leaders of critical organizations and their team to optimize their success in carrying out their missions.
Passionate About Government
We are passionate about our government and understand the critical role it plays in serving the people. We understand that government organizations are the most complex in the world. How they operate impacts millions of lives in so many important ways.
Government organizational leaders face increasing and changing demands to achieve greater mission outcomes. They are also under immense pressure to reduce inefficiencies by improving and transforming the way operations are structured and administered.
There are three critical drivers to optimizing a government organization's ability to achieve its strategic goals and objectives. They go hand-in-hand. The key is to excel, not simply go through the motions, in these drivers. They include:
-
- Strategic planning
- Strategy execution
- Organizational improvement

Using the Right Tool for the Job
To run at optimal capacity, an airplane engine needs to be finely tuned. An organization isn’t as tangible as an engine – but it too must be finely tuned to operate at peak performance, and systematically improved. If an organization doesn’t have the right standards, metrics, evaluation methods, and improvement programs in place, it is a guarantee there are problems. Some organizations use one tool (e.g., improvement methodology) like a hammer to try and solve all problems. Using the right tool for the right job is needed to optimize results.
Below examples of the tools we use to optimize the performance of the organization.

Our Approach in Working with Clients
Our approach is different - and for good reason. We have worked with top consulting firms in leadership roles. Our goal isn't to simply come up with recommendations, develop and present slick presentations, and walk away wealthy. We care deeply about the mission and work shoulder to shoulder with you in pushing the flywheel together until we achieve the mission goals and objectives. We focus on opportunities where we can roll up our sleeves and partner closely with you and your team until we are successful in achieving the outcomes.
Our Experience
We have substantive experience leading strategy, execution, and organizational improvement initiatives in the government as well as commercial, and non-profit sectors. Examples of results include:
• Corporate and department reinventions/redesigns: $1B+ in results,
• Continuous improvement and reengineering: $781M in savings,
• Product development: $170M in revenue from new products.
Our experience, highlighted below, enable us to help your organization in many critical areas.

More and more people were hired to perform these ever expanding activities. Continue reading...

Many of its products and services were low performing. Its processes weren’t clear. The technology was archaic. Career development wasn’t a priority and employees were disengaged. Based on its trajectory, the future didn't look bright. Continue reading...
A company had been generating over $528 million in annual revenue. It purchased several businesses, trusting that diversification would reduce risks and create new opportunities.
