We help government agencies fulfill their mission of protecting the public in an era of heightened government expectations. We work alongside capital equipment manufacturers, fabless companies, integrated-device manufacturers and foundry companies, semiconductors, aerospace, defense, and industrials.

Helping Governments Deliver for People. Being prepared requires constant vigilance. Preparedness applies not only to the effective execution of operations but also to the assurance that operations continue smoothly through any type of event. Organizations face an ever-changing series of threats to their future. That is why it is essential to identify existing threats quickly and review the processes and procedures that have been established to combat those threats. The tempo of military operations has been relentless. Innovations in military technology and operations have marked these past two decades of conflict. Precision-guided munitions have evolved and demonstrated their effectiveness in conflicts beginning with the Gulf War and continuing in Kosovo, Afghanistan and, most recently, Operation Unified Protector in Libya. We help defense and security institutions meet this challenge. We combine deep experience in national security with expertise that spans industries and the public, private, and social sectors. Our work covers a wide range of topics, from performing expenditure analysis to assessing and quantifying risk, infrastructure, anti-terrorism, and force protection.

Much progress has been made in the past century in raising individuals and societies out of poverty. Continuing this progress will require a significant and sustained global focus on economic development. And unlocking economic growth will require smart strategies for overcoming growth obstacles such as natural disasters and the effects of climate change. We help governments and public-sector organizations design and implement large-scale strategies that promote economic development and inclusive growth. We continually invest in developing unique capabilities, insights, and tools to serve our clients. Our global teams of supply chain and logistics experts help our clients address the complex business-management issues at the heart of aerospace and defense. Our research on core management functions, for example, helps public-sector defense and security leaders understand the practices that drive better management decisions.

Proclaiming the intention to land a man on the moon, President John F. Kennedy welcomed the American citizenry’s aid in the effort. That generation, and the one that followed, consisted of the same generation of technologists that invented the personal computer. Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft, was thirteen years old when the United States landed an astronaut on the moon. Some of the most revolutionary and remarkable technologies of recent decades have been spun off from research conducted under the banner of defense and exploration: dialysis machines, implantable pacemakers, affordable digital imaging surgery, corrosion-resistant coatings for structural steel, hydroponic systems for growing stations, and mid-air collision avoidance systems on aircraft.

We collaborate with government leaders and experts globally to develop actionable perspectives on regulation and enforcement. We deliver global solutions across a broad range of intelligence and counterintelligence disciplines. We work with public clients to collect and manage data to provide strategic intelligence and strengthen the operating environment. We are committed to helping aerospace and defense organizations realize their strategic visions and meet mission-critical goals.

We bring a range of proprietary tools and a wealth of experience to help defense and security clients address challenges in the areas of organizational design, human capital, organizational diagnostics, and transformational change. We help optimize procurement and contracting strategy, redesigning maintenance and supply chain processes, and transforming administrative processes and recruiting approaches. We help corrections systems, police forces, and justice systems better leverage technology, increase collaboration between departments, and transform their organizations. Our clients are active across the spectrum of defense domains.
