Process & Pricing

Where Do We Start?

It all begins with a meeting. One of our experienced Business Advocates will explore with you your goals and challenges to identify the opportunities that will have the greatest positive impact on your business.

Our preferred next step with a new client, in most cases, is to prepare a comprehensive “Diagnostic Analysis & Action Plan” for your company. This four-week analysis sets the foundation for our holistic approach since all processes throughout the business are ultimately connected in a system.

If you have specific urgent issues that need to be addressed, our Business Advocate will develop a plan with you for resolving them, and identify our best subject matter experts to lead the resolution process.

As you choose to implement our recommendations, our Business Advisors will work under a Leadership Team Adviser to implement a mutually agreed-upon plan to remove the impediments to profitability and growth.

Our Business Improvement Process

What Does It Cost?

Quite simply, the cost of our services for anything we do is far less than the value you get — or we’re not going to do it.

If your business qualifies, we will assign an experienced Business Advocate to your company at no cost to you. Your Business Advocate will gain an understanding of your company, listen, clarify opportunities for improvement, be a sounding board for you, and work with you to develop the improvement plan for your company. Whenever appropriate, your Business Advocate can arrange for a Diagnostic Analysis & Action Plan, or can arrange subject matter specific consulting to resolve virtually any business issues you may be facing.

Should your Business Advocate determine the Diagnostic Analysis & Action Plan as the first step, you can expect a four-week engagement led by your Business Advocate working with one of our Executive Analysts and various subject matter experts. Upon delivery of the Diagnostic Analysis, you will receive formal recommendations and the correlated level of impact you can expect from implementation. The professional time invested in the Diagnostic is valued at $30,000–$50,000, but your cost (in most cases) will be only $7,500.

The cost to implement your Action Plan will vary based on the business issues identified and the specific scope of work required to achieve your growth goals. Your Business Advocate will identify the programs, scope of work and estimated time and costs.

As a nonprofit, the Texas Consilium measures success in terms of the positive impact we create, as expressed in cost savings, profit improvement, topline revenue growth and other key performance indicators. To evaluate this success, Independent Impact Surveys are conducted following completion of each engagement. When TMAC services are included as part of your solution, these independent surveys will be conducted by a third party on behalf of TMAC and NIST (U.S. Department of Commerce).
