The work, and what came of it

Three engagements, anonymised: two under confidentiality, one live. Nothing here claims credit for an outcome. Where something followed, the dates are given.

An AI platform in the energy sector

April to August 2024

A specialised product with real customers, and a sales function that had turned over almost entirely. The engagement rebuilt qualification, the deal process and hiring. Fourteen months after it ended, the company announced a $10.5M Series A, and its deployment footprint had roughly doubled.

A deep-tech security platform

October 2023 to January 2024

Advanced, patented technology. The strategy was delivered, and the client called it beyond expectations. It was never executed: the scope and terms for execution were never agreed, and the engagement ended at three months. Documents do not generate pipeline.

A private equity portfolio in advanced manufacturing

Ongoing

Five operating companies, five sets of definitions. One set now runs across all five, so the holdings rank on evidence. The engagement is live and confidential, so no figures appear.

What the second engagement changed

Every engagement now opens with the same thirty days, which produce three things: a deal that moved, a baseline with the binding constraint named, and a definition of success agreed before either side commits further.
