About
Since our inception, Federal Services has been focused on building a strategic, quality search practice.
Federal Services is a management consulting firm. Our services focus on our clients' most critical issues and opportunities: strategy, marketing, organization, operations, technology, transformation, advanced analytics and mergers & acquisitions, across all industries and geographies. We bring deep, functional expertise, but are known for our holistic perspective: we capture value across boundaries and between the silos of any organization. We have proven a multiplier effect from optimizing the sum of the parts, not just the individual pieces. Together with its clients, Federal Services works towards achieving clear competitive advantages and upgrading enterprise value over the long term.
Federal Services helps clients with their most complex strategic challenges. We build tailored solutions to help clients achieve sustained growth and emphasize mobilization from day one. We begin by helping clients choose where to focus so they can outexecute and outinvest their competitors―and ultimately generate higher returns.
Federal Services Strategy practice is anchored by seven Beliefs on strategy:
-
There are few bad businesses, but many bad strategies. Returns are generated by delighting customers and beating the competition, not by pursuing hot markets.
-
Good strategies create a path to leadership economics. In a correctly-defined business, one or two competitors with superior economics, enabled by strong leadership, usually capture the profit pool. The paradox of leadership is that the strongest companies are often the furthest from achieving their full potential.
-
A company’s first priority should be unlocking the full potential of the core. Strategy is the science of allocating scarce resources. Companies that are sustained value creators know their core and focus their resources on attaining full potential before pursuing adjacencies―and then only with ruthless discipline.
-
Leadership starts with competitive advantage. Strategies lacking a sharp definition of how to win, relative to the industry’s rules of the game, seldom return their cost of capital. Leadership requires companies to combine superior capabilities and assets to form strong, repeatable differentiation.
-
Customer advocacy is the acid test of competitive advantage. Most companies fail to deliver a superior customer proposition; however, sustained value creators are twice as likely to get it right. But no matter how good your proposition, low cost is critical to staying competitive and fueling reinvestment.
-
A good strategy is one that can be implemented. The reason many strategies don’t deliver results is the failure to change behaviors. Winning strategies are designed for and with the front line and are understood throughout the organization, not just in the board room.
-
Repeatable Models deliver enduring success. Successful companies build Repeatable Models with well-defined core differentiation, clear non-negotiables that embed the strategy at the front line and feedback loops to adapt continuously and delight their customers more, at an ever lower cost.
Federal Services LLC works across all types of industries, with all kinds of clients:
-
Large multinational corporations
-
Midsize companies
-
Small start-ups
-
Nonprofit organizations
But what unifies our clients, is that they all tend to be bold, ambitious business leaders.
-
They think and act like owners.
-
They are not satisfied with the status quo.
-
They want a sparring partner to challenge them.
-
They want a personal trainer to push them to their best, not a "yes-man."
On every case, we look at the business from a chief executive's perspective. We start by asking the right questions, and then dig deep into the numbers to unearth the right solutions. We don't settle for off-the-shelf solutions, our approach and recommendations are highly customized. We help clients decide where they want to go, and how to get there.
And we don't stop there. We make sure those decisions get translated quickly into action and that the client's team can sustain the momentum into the future. We commit to leaving organizations stronger than when we arrive.
