Industry Focus

Professional Services Firms

Consulting, legal, advisory, and knowledge businesses where intellectual capital is the product and people are the business.

Why This Matters

Professional services firms face a unique set of challenges: maintaining quality as you scale, building repeatable processes without losing client intimacy, and managing growth without diluting your expertise.

The best firms know that scaling isn't just about hiring more people. It's about designing systems that capture and leverage institutional knowledge, creating delivery models that maintain consistency, and building organizational structures that support both partner autonomy and firm-wide coordination.

We work with consulting firms, legal practices, advisory shops, and other knowledge businesses that refuse to choose between growth and quality.

Our Approach

We help professional services firms build the operational infrastructure that enables sustainable growth without sacrificing quality.

Practice & Service Line Design

We help you structure your service offerings, pricing models, and delivery approaches to create clarity for both your team and your clients. From productizing expertise to building new practice areas, we bring strategic discipline to service design.

Operating Model & Workflow

Knowledge work requires thoughtful systems. We design the processes, tools, and information flows that let your team focus on client work instead of internal coordination. Clear roles, efficient workflows, minimal friction.

Growth & Partnership Strategy

Scaling a professional services firm means getting the partnership model right. We help with growth strategy, partnership structures, compensation design, and the organizational changes that enable sustainable expansion.

Knowledge Management Systems

Your institutional knowledge is your competitive advantage. We help you capture, organize, and leverage it through systems that make your collective expertise accessible and actionable across the firm.
