General Approach. The nature of the strategy being developed drives our approach. We understand the unique nature of each project and recognize that our ability to develop solutions and strategies from our broad experience is part of what qualifies us to serve the State under this proposed contract. By approaching each project as an opportunity to collaborate with the State, we ensure stakeholder voices are heard and use the experience of State personnel to build our specific approach. Our CPAs and other consultants each have their own industry specializations and expertise, and our exceptional results begin by assembling the best team to meet your specific needs. By combining our skilled project managers and visionaries with our subject matter experts, we ensure technical expertise is embedded at every step of the project. While we can, and do, subcontract with third parties when specific technical expertise outside of our employee base is needed, we are much more than a firm of project managers. We facilitate meetings, interview personnel, and brainstorm internally about areas for potential process and strategic improvement. The project is planned in consultation with client personnel and specific milestones and deliverables are established. We assign our personnel and work through the agreed-upon milestones, providing regular updates to the client based on the desires of the contracting party. When obstacles are encountered, we work around them where possible or consult promptly with the client to find the best path forward. We gain a detailed understanding of the regulatory and/or statutory environment within which the client operates and conduct our own research into the potential obstacles facing the strategy being developed. Having ▇▇▇▇▇ discussions about opportunities to improve current management strategies helps us design procedures and recommendations to address known “issues” and deliver a better product. Our emphasis on quality benefits our State clients greatly. Written reports by THF are subjected to an internal independent quality control review. Having an experienced, senior professional who is otherwise unaffiliated with the project review the report helps ensure our approach was sound, our findings and recommended strategies are clear, and all reporting requirements have been met. Client review of our “draft” findings and recommendations is another key element of our typical approach. Under this approach, State clients are better able to take ownership of the final strategy. We find this increases the buy-in of client personnel and stakeholders not otherwise involved in the project, bringing value to the project even after our role in it ends.
