Organizations: Transitioning to a value-added business model

 
 

Our Industrial Services Firm client was historically focused on low-margin/high volume subcontracting to construction prime contractors; their parent wanted them to shift to a more value-added business model, focusing on client relationships. ClearSpace provided support to the executive team to make the transition successfully.
