Frequently Asked Questions
What is a fractional COO and when does it make sense?
A fractional COO provides senior operational leadership on a part-time or project basis. It makes sense when an organization needs COO-level capability but is not ready for or cannot justify a full-time hire. Common situations include rapid growth, a leadership gap, a pending transaction, or a specific operational challenge that requires senior attention.
How is COO advisory different from management consulting?
COO advisory is embedded, ongoing leadership rather than a project-based engagement. We operate as part of your leadership team, attending meetings, making decisions, and driving execution. Traditional consulting delivers recommendations. We deliver results.
Can you work alongside an existing COO or operations leader?
Yes. We frequently serve as a senior advisor to an existing COO or VP of Operations, providing strategic counsel, additional bandwidth during high-demand periods, or specialized expertise for a specific initiative.
What commitment level is typical for a fractional COO engagement?
Engagements typically range from one to three days per week depending on organizational need. We structure the commitment to match the scope of work and adjust as the engagement evolves.
