PROTECT
Asset & know-how security
Formula and recipe protection, AI usage guidelines, secure access to your key systems, and supplier terms that hold up as you grow.
POSITION
Commercial advantage
EPR packaging readiness, retail launch plans, and operational data that buyers, lenders and investors trust.

Diagnose with the 3P Resilience Diagnostic, so we fix what needs fixing first.
Build with the level of support that fits: Do-It-Together Implementation for specific priorities, or a Fractional Resilience Partner for ongoing help.

AFTER THE DIAGNOSTIC
A plan only matters once it's running in your business
Getting a plan into daily operations is usually the hardest part, especially when you're also running sales, production and a team.
Do-It-Together Implementation is a focused project with a fixed scope, a fixed fee and an end date. We build the top priorities from your roadmap side by side with your team, such as your continuity plan, a supplier scorecard or a deduction recovery process. Your team learns as we go, so it keeps running after I step back.
It's different from the Fractional Resilience Partner. Here's how:
Do-It-Together Implementation
Best for: fixing 1-3 priorities from your roadmap
Length: typically 4-12 weeks, with a clear end date
Pricing: fixed fee, quoted after the Diagnostic
You walk away with: working systems your team owns
Fractional Resilience Partner
Best for: ongoing attention across several areas
Length: 6-month minimum, then month to month
Pricing: monthly, from $1,500
You walk away with: a steady operations partner as you grow
Need something in between?
Not every brand fits a package. If you need help with one specific area, such as a co-packer transition, documenting your core processes or an EPR check, we can scope a focused project around it.
Built for your corner of the market
Food & Beverage
Co-packer agreements, ingredient lead times, distributor deductions and recipe security.
Lifestyle, Wellness & Pets
Manufacturer and printer delays, packaging minimums, custom glass lead times and EPR guidance.
FAQs
1. How do we get started?
Book a 20-minute intro call. If the Diagnostic looks like a fit, we follow with a short scoping call, then I send a simple proposal.
2. How much of my time does the Diagnostic take?
About 90 minutes with you, plus 1-2 hours with your operations lead, spread over 2-4 weeks.
3. What's the difference between Do-It-Together and the Fractional Resilience Partner?
Do-It-Together is a project: fixed scope, fixed fee, clear end date. The Partner is ongoing monthly support across several areas. Many brands start with a Do-It-Together project and decide on ongoing support later.
4. We're under $1M. Where should we start?
Essentials is built for you. If you're growing fast or have a complex supply chain, the Diagnostic may pay off sooner. We can discuss that on an intro call.
5. Do you replace an operations hire?
No. An operations leader handles your day-to-day. I focus on specific areas, like continuity planning, supplier reviews and packaging (EPR) reporting. If you already have an operations lead, I work alongside them on the projects that keep getting pushed back.
6. If I start with Essentials, can I upgrade later?
Yes. If you book the 3P Resilience Diagnostic within 6 months of buying Essentials, your $299 goes toward the Diagnostic fee.
7. Do you provide legal compliance advice or formal legal opinions?
No. I provide operational guidance, process architecture, and data organization to help you interact smoothly with compliance bodies and Producer Responsibility Organizations (such as Circular Action Alliance / CAA). I do not offer legal or formal regulatory advice.
