Projects are for a question that needs more than a call and less than a consulting firm. Same bench. You get time with the operator and a written work product.
Typical shapes
- Commercial diligence on a private-equity process, two to four weeks
- An operator inside a portfolio company for a commercial question
- A market-entry memo for India, Vietnam, or the UAE
Scope is agreed on the brief. We will not staff a project with someone who has not run the work.
Clock
- Scope and fee agreed on the brief before work starts.
- Usually one to six weeks. A two-to-four-week commercial diligence is the common shape.
- Working sessions with the operator, then a written product.
- Transcripts of those sessions filed with the client.
Included
- Scope and timeline agreed on the brief, usually one to six weeks
- Conflict screen and a written work product
- Transcripts of the working sessions, filed with the client
