Three practice areas, built around the decisions owners actually face.
We scope each engagement to the situation in front of us. The team, the timeline, and the deliverables are shaped by what the business needs — not sold from a catalogue.

Selected engagements.
A nine-month fractional CFO engagement that brought a cleantech scale-up to its Series B.
Embedded finance leadership, cash-flow discipline, and the board-ready reporting that made the round possible. Twelve million raised on the timeline the founder needed.
A Canadian market entry that closed in five months — the pace the transaction required.
Entity, payroll, first senior hires, and go-to-market for an international technology firm. Operated in-country until their Toronto office could stand on its own.
A confidential investigation for a mid-market manufacturer, conducted under OHSA Bill C-65.
Eight weeks, nine interviews, one report. Findings delivered to the board; remediation steered through legal. The business is still a client on retainer.
They didn't just advise. They were in the room when we made the decisions that mattered, and they stayed until our own leadership was ready to carry it forward. Nine months in, the systems they built are ours — and we're still calling them when we need a considered second view.
Strategy is the easy part. Execution is where we stay.
The shape of an engagement matters more than the deck that opens it. Here is what we sign up for — and what we decline — before the first working session.
- Own the call. We sit in the meeting where the decision gets made, and we make it when it falls to us.
- Write the document nobody wants to write. The investigation report. The board memo. The restructuring plan.
- Stay longer than you expected. The exit is when your team is ready — not when the SOW expires.
- Leave systems, not slides. The cadence, the document, the policy you can run without us.
- Sell you a framework. The playbook gets written inside your business, not imported from a deck.
- Cheerlead. If the diagnosis is rough, you hear it on the first call — not the third.
- Staff juniors on the work. The principal on the SOW is the one in the room.
- Leave you dependent on us. Every engagement is designed to make us redundant.
