What we don’t do
- Insist we can do everything. We'll tell you where we can be of help to you -- and
where we can't. We turn down over 80% of the requests we get for help and
proposals. We can often suggest where you might be able to get the help you
need if we are not right for you.
- Replace traditional large consulting firms when you need large-scale analytical
firepower and/or specific expertise (though we often work alongside such firms)
- Provide deep technical expertise such as IT
- Rubber stamp internal or external studies
- Require long term expensive commitments
- Give you 'guru' generalities
- Push 'pet' concepts -- we won't try to force your problem into our solution
