Additional context
The Strategy practice draws on experience from both consulting and government leadership roles. We understand the constraints facing public sector and regulated organizations—including procurement requirements, stakeholder complexity, and accountability structures—and design strategies that work within these realities.
Our approach emphasizes actionability. Strategies that cannot be implemented provide no value. We work closely with clients to ensure recommendations are feasible given organizational capacity, budget realities, and political context.
Common questions
How is this different from traditional strategy consulting?
We focus on organizations with significant governance, regulatory, or public accountability requirements. Our deliverables are designed to support procurement, audit, and oversight contexts—not just internal decision-making.
How long does a typical strategy engagement take?
Scope varies significantly. Focused assessments may take 4-8 weeks; comprehensive strategic plans typically require 12-16 weeks including stakeholder engagement.
Do you implement the strategies you develop?
We support implementation planning and can advise during execution, but we do not serve as implementation contractors. We can help structure procurements for implementation support.
What industries do you work with on strategy?
We work primarily with government agencies, infrastructure operators, and regulated enterprises where strategic decisions involve significant public interest or stakeholder complexity.
How do you handle confidential strategic information?
All client information is treated as confidential by default. We execute NDAs and maintain strict information handling procedures. See our Confidentiality Policy for details.
