What Sets Us Apart
Vice President of Advisory Services, Wayne Balardo
Our clients know their business well, have tremendous knowledge of their operations and are aware of opportunities for improvement, but may not always have the proper resources and specific expertise necessary to execute. This is where we can help.
Unique to Advisory Services is our vast roster of seasoned IT professionals with deep experience across all areas of I&O: 90% of our consulting team has over 25 years’ experience. We utilize our proven frameworks, processes and artifacts to offer solutions via our implementation services, utilizing best in class processes and tools delivered by veteran professionals, providing a range of services from strategic planning to technical assistance. We have the practical experience in having successfully led and implemented complex I&O initiatives in the past.
This allows us to put our clients first and assist with any I&O issues they may have in a timely and efficient manner, with minimal disruption to the organization. As Wayne Balardo, Vice President, Advisory Services says “putting clients first means showing integrity throughout engagements, by providing an honest assessment of their situation and by following through on what we promise.”
