Management Consulting

In-vig-or-en: from the Latin vigēre, to be vigorus, energize, forceful with purpose; to make strong. Invigoren is differentiated by its partners' wealth of operating experience, in addition to general business practicum in a wide range of industries. Often a consultant's experience is limited to their practice or their prior role, but as prior c-level officers in Fortune 500 and other companies, Invigoren's senior partners have been at the helm as companies have navigated difficult times. This depth of experience enhances their ability to plan and execute. Their intuition, confidence, and even empathy exceed that of counselor or advisor, and can be more correctly labeled as an "operative". Consultants can often remark they have observed and recommended, while operatives have witnessed and accomplished. Invigoren is tenured in turnaround and growth situations which demand quick assessments, detailed plans and contingencies, precise communications, and closely monitored progress. Our partners experience delivering a bottom-line, derived from revenue improvement, through product and channel focus, gross margin improvement via sourcing, the identification of operational economies, and recapitalization is varied: * Development of new products and assortments, and securing placement in the grocery (CPG), restaurant (QSR), convenience, gift, department stores and specialty retail channels. *Restructuring of the balance sheet to match anticipated conditions, enhance the opportunity for desired transaction, lower costs of operation and debt service, or in extreme cases, to execute a consensual foreclosure or Chapter 11 Reorganization. In the case of the later, in 2013 a Client emerged from C11 six months and one day after entering. *Repositioning of assets and the redefining of competencies to focus on market opportunities in a range of industries such a giftware, hardware, marketing services, e-commerce platforms, baked goods, pet food, and retail.
