Today’s business leadership expects quicker time-to-value on all work conducted by outside service firms. Consultant resources must have strong, proven point-specific skills. Clients demand compressed project timelines, controlled and delivered by experts in the area being addressed. Strategically, clients want the resources and know-how offered traditionally by large consulting firms; tactically, clients demand the agile, cost-effective response provided by a small firm.

The Collinear Alliance is comprised of member professional consulting organizations joined to complement each other with world-class management and supply change consulting expertise. Members come together by invitation – both small firms and sole-practitioners – and are like-minded in business practices. We are committed to excellence and collaboration for optimized solutions and market coverage. The Collinear Alliance allows clients access to a more comprehensive resource pool of targeted subject matter experts (SME’s) than would normally be possible through a typical consulting engagement model. Members of the Alliance are purposefully sought out for their alignment in areas that matter – such as business practices, capabilities and integrity. The result is a stronger, more capable consulting experience for our clients, as well as a common business structure to simplify commercial terms, conditions, and fee positioning.

Simply put, Collinear effectively delivers meaningful supply chain performance improvement by providing “big firm resources” at “small firm availability and cost.”
