Who We Serve

ROM Clients

Although we advise executives, leadership teams and boards, our ultimate value is to those served by our clients: their customers, stakeholders and communities.


We provide strategy, operations, and business advisory services to a range of organizations but are most effective serving:

  • Benefit corporations
  • Entrepreneurs and start-ups
  • Foundations and progressive nonprofits
  • Science, technology and R&D-centric organizaitons
  • Mid-sized manufacturing and service firms
  • Divisions of large firms
  • Trade and professional associations 
  • Professional services (law, accounting, consulting)
  • Federal agencies
  • Business development entities and incubators


ROM has a limited consulting practice - we serve only a few clients at one time, place client service before firm growth, and prefer working with organizations who are committed to long-term sustained performance improvement. See our consulting principles for a better understanding of why we operate this way. We often work with progressive nonprofits and foundations to help them deliver services more efficiently and share improved management principles with peers.
