Winning is not a sometime
thing; it's an all the time thing.
You don't win once in a while,
you don't do things right once
in a while, you do them right all
the time.
Winning is a habit.
Unfortunately, so is losing.
- Vincent T. Lombardi
The Vineyard Group, LLC is a multi-faceted consulting firm that offers specialized services in five major areas including: Management Advisory Services; Ownership Transition and Valuation Services; Virtual and Transitional Executive Services; Litigation Support Services; and Fraud Deterrence and Investigation Services. The mission of the Vineyard Group is to apply our expertise, experience and specialized training in a focused, customized manner which is specifically tailored to meet the needs of each client for every engagement. We do not sell "off the shelf" products, rather we provide solutions that are designed to add value each and every time we are involved with an engagement. We take a "cradle to grave" service approach which provides for hands on assistance through the crucial final details of the closing or implementation phase. Our tag line, Cultivating Value…Seedling to Harvest is not just a saying, it is the essence of our business and we practice it every day.
We are imaginative, creative problems solvers who possess well over 100 aggregate years of public accounting, executive, entrepreneurship and financial industrial management experience. We are excellent communicators, negotiators and motivators who have been deeply involved with many sophisticated and complex transactions and cases. We have devoted the time, energy and financial resources to receive specialized training to earn the professional designations that clearly illustrate our total commitment to excellence and separate us from the pack. We have the absolute drive, commitment and focus to get the job done and we have established a solid track record of achievement and reputation that proves it.
Our engagements are succinctly defined in Project Scope Plans that have clearly delineated scope parameters, deliverables and timelines. Our fee structure can also be creative and flexible but is predominantly either a fixed fee for a project, a success fee based upon the achievement of specific project objectives or a combination of both. We are very careful to only accept assignments where we are confident that we can be successful. In order to make this assessment, we invest the front end time that is necessary to get to know the client, the situation and the project and therefore we do not charge for initial discussions or meetings.
Please contact us anytime at your convenience. We would be delighted to help you add value any way that we can.
