Strategic advisory & governance
Executive decision support, board preparation, operating plans, leadership transitions, and coordination across functions. Identify emerging constraints before they become operating problems.
Our work
From strategy to implementation.
Practical advisory and hands-on delivery for mission-driven organizations.
Finance & accountability
Budgets, rolling cash forecasts, grant and restricted-fund reporting, cost allocation, multi-entity reporting, treasury processes, and audit preparation.
HR, payroll & labor systems
HRIS and payroll validation, labor-cost mapping, wage and step progression, differentials, timekeeping rules, and translating collective bargaining provisions into usable workflows.
Technology & reporting
Stakeholder discovery, requirements and use cases, data cleanup, migration readiness, integration planning, automated reporting, and dashboards. Evaluate systems against actual operating needs.
Program & project delivery
Scope, sequencing, stakeholder coordination, acceptance testing, training, adoption, and handoff. Support shared-service and multi-entity integration with clear responsibilities.
Research & decision support
Public filings and open-source research organized into leadership briefings, entity maps, risk registers, source matrices, and document requests. Keep verified evidence separate from inference.
Procurement & vendor review
Requirements, bid and proposal preparation, vendor demonstrations, service-level review, contract coordination, and cost comparisons that inform management decisions.
Records & information governance
Records inventories, retention-schedule implementation, document workflows, access controls, migration planning, and staff training.
Continuity & operating resilience
Business continuity planning, technology-provider coordination, recovery readiness, insurance and operating-risk review, and practical ownership of controls.
