Sustainability is the
likelihood that a given
innovation can be
supported long term.
Value is the benefit
provided to the
business, customers
and prospects.
Viability is measured
in cost, feasibility,
resources, and time
required to execute.
We help our clients envision
what’s possible and focus
on what’s practical.
Our approach identifies
ideas that meet three
primary criteria: value,
viability and sustainability.
