About Us

We have an available consulting staff of over 60 professionals drawn from the operating staff of major North American paper companies. Our typical consultant has in excess of 25 years of on the job experience in their area of expertise and a strong track record of performance and excellence.

The disruptions across the industry have left many operations with significant gaps in experience based know-how, and a loss of institutional knowledge and expertise. Our consulting services offer the ability to bridge this gap, and provide the assistance of deep, focused experience on an as-needed basis. We can also provide the assistance necessary to develop operational discipline, and instill standard operating practices that will assure the ability to maintain high performance levels in your operations.

We have a number of maintenance and engineering project managers on staff that can be used to provide short term management for major maintenance projects, new construction, or rebuilds.

We have a variety of consultants that have held General Management and Mill Management roles in major mills. This staff is available to provide experienced counsel and advice to help develop new or inexperienced mill leadership.

Our fee structures are reasonable and flexible and support can be provided on a need by need basis or through longer duration retainer agreements. We provide general liability insurance for our site based consultants.
