Three Ways to Work With Us.

We structure every engagement to match the scope of the challenge — not the other way around. Whether you need focused support on a single problem or a long-term partner through a multi-year growth agenda, there is a model designed for that.

CATALYST

Focused Strategy & Advisory

The right partner for a well-defined challenge.

A Catalyst engagement addresses a single, clearly scoped business problem — a market entry, a manufacturing process review, a go-to-market rebuild, or a specific M&A advisory mandate. We assign a dedicated team, deliver to a defined outcome, and hand over with a structured transition at close.

Included in Catalyst:

  • Scope of Work: Single-focus mandate — one defined problem, one defined outcome
  • Typical Duration: 3 – 5 months
  • Analysis & Insights: Targeted diagnostic on the defined scope
  • Custom Strategy: Bespoke strategy for the specific service area
  • Senior partner actively engaged throughout

Available as Add-Ons (additional fee):

  • Execution & Delivery: Embedded delivery team for the engagement duration
  • Ongoing Support: Structured handover + post-delivery advisory retainer

Best suited for: Organizations addressing a specific, well-defined challenge or opportunity where speed and precision are the priority.

GROWTH

Multi-Phase Program

For businesses pursuing a significant step-change.

A Growth engagement is a phased program spanning up to three practice areas — typically combining commercial performance work with operational improvement, or a market expansion with a marketing build-out. A senior partner leads the program end-to-end, with delivery milestones agreed at the outset and progress reviewed at each phase gate.

Included in Growth:

  • Scope of Work: Cross-functional program spanning up to 3 practice areas
  • Typical Duration: 6 – 18 months
  • Analysis & Insights: Comprehensive analysis across functions and target markets
  • Custom Strategy: Integrated strategy across up to three practice areas
  • Execution & Delivery: Senior partner-led dedicated team with phased delivery milestones
  • Ongoing Support: Up to 6 months post-engagement
  • Check-in Cadence: Quarterly during the support period
  • Support Time Cap: Maximum 10 hours during the support period.

    Best suited for: Businesses pursuing a significant growth initiative, market expansion, or operational overhaul that requires sustained senior-level engagement across multiple workstreams.
