The structure follows the work, not the other way around.
Some engagements need a standing advisor. Others need one clear deliverable. We match the arrangement to what the moment actually calls for.
Five practices, one methodology.
Strategic retainer
For organizations navigating sustained change — sector strategy, coalition-building, and pipeline development on a monthly cadence. Best for teams that need a standing thought partner, not another vendor relationship.
Fixed-price project
A defined scope, a clear deliverable, a set timeline — feasibility studies, grant packages, corridor plans. Best for a specific decision that needs a rigorous answer before it can move forward.
Fractional embedded role
Senior-level capacity inside a client's team, part-time. Best for organizations that have outgrown ad hoc consulting but aren't ready for — or don't need — a full-time hire.
Performance-adjacent (private sector)
Retainer plus success fee, structured around a transaction or milestone. Best for private clients where the firm's incentives should sit closer to the outcome than the hours.
