Our approach
Project breakdown
Over the course of the term, a dedicated SMCC team works closely with your organization to understand the challenge, develop insights, and translate them into actionable recommendations. Each engagement is tailored to the needs and objectives of our client.
Step 1
Scoping
A no-cost conversation to define the question. We leave with a one-page statement of work naming the deliverable, the timeline, and what we will not cover.
Step 2
Discovery
Stakeholder interviews, a data request, and desk research. The team returns a structured problem statement and a working hypothesis for you to challenge.
Step 3
Analysis
Modeling and primary research against the hypothesis, with a midpoint review so the direction stays honest before the work hardens.
Step 4
Deliver
The engagement concludes with a final client presentation outlining key insights, recommendations, and practical next steps.
Sponsorship
Looking for a different kind of sponsor or partnership?
Not every collaboration is an engagement. Firms work with SMCC by sponsoring the Consulting Series, setting the case for our flagship competition, sending people to a panel, or hosting our members for a conversation about the work.
Each one is shaped around what the organisation wants out of it. If you have something else in mind, tell us what it is and we will tell you honestly whether we can do it well.
