Strategic Alliances

How can a core team of a dozen senior associates provide high quality, diverse, and affordable services to so many clients? We do it through strategic alliances— partnerships based on long-term commitment to our corporate philosophy of providing options for productivity through people.

Seeking Alliances to Meet Client Needs
O.D. Systems draws on a variety of talents to provide our clients with responsive solutions, exceptional quality, and a great return on their investment. We form strategic alliances with:

• Associates
• Consortium Members
• Partners

Associates
Associates are employees who work full-time or part-time exclusively for O.D. Systems. When developing proposals, deciding which projects to take on, or deciding which clients to work with, one of the key factors in this selection is that O.D. Systems is committed to securing work that provides individual development, organizational learning, and the opportunity to team with other subject matter experts. Honoring this commitment is the primary way that we attract and retain top-notch professionals.

Consortium Members
O.D. Systems retains a cadre of professionals who augment the ranks of our associates. These individuals bring knowledge, skills, and capabilities which are needed for a particular client project. Consortium members are often independent consultants. They sometimes bring work to O.D. Systems, which they cannot accomplish individually or prefer to work with a team of trusted colleagues.

Partners
Partners are corporations that team with O.D. Systems in much the same way as consortium members. These partners generally add technical capability to proposal development and project implementation. Disciplines from which we have drawn partners include medicine, public relations, law, and technology—especially information management and information technology. O.D. Systems also works with corporations who are seeking alliances with a management consulting firm to help them meet the needs of their customers. It´s a matter of getting together to get ahead!
