VILL Expert Network
The right expertise for the problem, not the expertise that happens to be on the bench.
Conventional consulting has a structural constraint. A firm can only deploy the people it employs, which means the shape of the solution is influenced by the shape of the team available. Problems that require a metallurgist, a carbon markets auditor, a construction planning engineer and a commercial strategist in the same room are difficult to serve from a single generalist pyramid.
Questions we answer
- Who is actually going to work on this, and what have they done before?
- Does this team have operating experience in our industry or only advisory experience?
- How do we access specialist expertise we cannot justify hiring permanently?
- How is quality controlled when specialists are brought in?
- Who owns the outcome?
