Interim Management

We are a full-service Management Consultant organization, with a number of Management Consulting specialities. With 26 years of Engineering experience in startups, medium, and large companies we have a keen sense of respect for the individual while holding ALL accountable for their respective product or program deliverables.

We recognize the shortages in the labor field to find that best fit candidate. Technology Executive searches often take 3 to 6 months and can extend for longer periods of time. This is too long a period for a development team to go unsupervised. Moving internal people in as temporary stop gap measures creates lower level voids that are often even more catastrophic. To meet company product commitments and schedule integrity, the firm can act as part of the senior management team and provide interim technology roles as required.
