Our Differentiators: Enhancing a Client's Competitive Advantage
DEALTEK® is a deliberately different company than, for example, a real estate brokerage, Big 4 accounting, or engineering firm that consults in the location and site selection process. On our company's software side, DEALTEK is unique in having launched DEALS® on the market. By doing so, we are making a consultancy's proverbial "Black Box" readily available for stand-alone use directly by decision-makers, advisors, and other project participants. On our company's consulting side, here are six key differentiators between DEALTEK® and the others.
Focus
DEALTEK® is a unique, closely-held company specializing in corporate
development, expansion/consolidation, and location/relocation decisions. We
focus on enhancing our Clients’ operational efficiency and bottom line results,
in both the short and long terms. To pursue this focus, we offer Clients complete
project related resources: from business consulting to technology applications;
from analysis to advice; and from negotiation to implementation. We address
workforce availability and skills, overall costs of doing business, facility
needs, market access, and utility reliability, among other criteria, to ensure
that we create the optimal operating environment for our Clients. To us, the
location and site selection process is only one component - but an integral
component - of the bigger, strategic decision making and implementation process.
Quality
We have an excellent track record in planning and executing major capital investment
decisions on (or ahead of) budget and schedule. We limit the number of client
engagements so that our principals can maximize their quality. The quality is
evidenced by the fact that our blue-chip clientele comes exclusively from repeat
business, word-of-mouth, and referrals from our alliances with prestigious organizations.
Experience
DEALTEK’s services and technology-based decision tools reflect
decades of both behind-the- scenes and front-line experiences. We have negotiated
numerous facility projects and other major business deals, from industry’s high-profile
ones to more discreet ones. In addition, we have inside, hands-on experience
in manufacturing plant start-ups and operations. So, we know what needs to get
done and how to do it with the necessary finesse and speed to maximize a Client’s
business opportunities. DEALTEK® is not a firm that routinely
markets itself as having experience in subjects when it has little or none,
or as having proprietary software when it is really just glorifying a spreadsheet.
Reliability
DEALTEK’s principals stay actively involved to get the deal
done right. Our professionals bring best practices, creative thinking, and cutting
edge techniques to each engagement. Our professionals don’t make excuses - they
don’t need to. DEALTEK® is not a vast, high-turnover, and overhead-laden
bureaucracy in which unsuspecting Clients have their tasks punted to unqualified
and unfamiliar people.
Value
Our integrated engagement approach consistently provides great benefits for
our Clients, far in excess of our reasonable fees. The benefits usually include
significantly improved operating environments, faster project completion times,
and lower transaction, start-up, and operating costs. We produce this value
with well-planned transactions, thorough business negotiations, and the proper
use of discretionary incentives and legislative changes. Big-firm fees or brokerage
commissions, minimum billable hour requirements, and sales quotas do not exist
at DEALTEK®. And, we never charge for identifying a statutory
tax credit or other incentive that the Client was entitled to receive by right.
Standards
Professionalism is a cornerstone of our reputation. We maintain confidentiality
and will not disclose information (including the Client’s name) without the
authority to do so. Sensitivities and politics, both inside and outside a Client’s
organization, often influence major corporate investment decisions; we manage
these influences adeptly. And we are fiercely loyal to each Client in advancing
its best interests. DEALTEK® does not deviate from these standards.
That’s because we care deeply about enhancing each Client’s competitive advantage.
