Large-scale healthcare provider group · Multi-year engagement
$16M
EBITDA improvement
+
01 · The Problem
Margin erosion with no clear path forward
A $4B oncology provider group faced significant margin pressure from labor inefficiency, payor denials, and fragmented revenue integrity processes. Leadership lacked the financial infrastructure to identify root causes at scale.

Proposed a multi-year transformation targeting labor efficiency, process standardization, revenue integrity, and payor denial reduction — with a phased roadmap, measurable milestones, and executive governance structure.
03 · Execution
Embedded leadership across workstreams
Led cross-functional teams across finance, operations, and technology. Implemented RPA and AI tooling to automate eligibility verification, prior authorization, and denial prevention. Built executive dashboards for real-time performance visibility.
04 · Results
Measurable, sustained impact

01 · The Problem
Untapped market with no GTM structure
A PE-backed advisory firm identified significant demand for healthcare-specific transformation services but lacked a defined service line, GTM strategy, or operational infrastructure to scale delivery consistently.
02 · The Proposal
Service line design and launch
Proposed a structured approach to define the Healthcare Transformation offering, develop the go-to-market strategy, build the delivery model, and integrate acquired offshore capabilities to enable scale.
03 · Execution
Build, launch, and scale
Led design and launch including offering definition, pricing structure, pipeline development, and deal execution. Coordinated integration of U.S. and offshore teams acquired through M&A to drive scalability and synergy realization.

Executive PMO
Enterprise Governance Framework for a Multi-Workstream Transformation
Large enterprise organization · Embedded PMO engagement
$38M+

+
01 · The Problem
Strategy without structure
A large enterprise was running multiple transformation initiatives with no centralized governance, unclear decision rights, and limited executive visibility — leading to missed milestones and misaligned priorities.
02 · The Proposal
Embedded PMO with executive governance
Proposed standing up a centralized PMO with defined governance structures, reporting cadences, and a master program plan connecting all workstreams to the enterprise strategy, including a steering committee framework with clear escalation paths.
03 · Execution
PMO built from the ground up
Embedded directly into the executive team, designing and operating the full PMO. Built governance frameworks, RACI matrices, risk and issue logs, and executive dashboards. Facilitated weekly workstream leads and monthly steering committee sessions.
04 · Results
Visibility, alignment, and delivery
Executive team gained real-time visibility across all workstreams. Decision-making speed increased significantly. Key milestones achieved on time, contributing to $38M+ in total enterprise value creation across the broader transformation program.
