How We Approach Consulting

At Red Jacket Consulting, we provide personalised, practical and flexible professional services that deliver valuable results. Here is what you can expect when you work with us.

1. Scoping

Following the initial enquiry, we meet with our clients to gain an understanding of their circumstances and requirements. This step is crucial, as we only take on clients if we believe we can deliver exceptional value and results.

2. Proposal

Once we’ve identified our clients needs, we create a proposal, outlining our methodology, timing, client involvement, expected outcomes and costs.

3. Planning & Goals

Next, we solidify timeframes, client availability and confirm the Red Jacket Consulting team members that are the best fit to deliver the agreed outcomes.

4. Implementation

We then mobilise our team and conduct field work, delivering or implementing the agreed services. During this time we report regularly and seek feedback to ensure that we are meeting client expectations.

5. Final Report

Our findings and recommendations are generally delivered via an oral presentation, allowing the client an opportunity to test the conclusions and discuss the timing and challenges of implementation.

6. Follow Up & Support

We connect with our clients following final delivery to see how they are progressing. If there are unexpected implementation hurdles or resource challenges, we’re available to provide additional support and guidance.
