How does an engagement work?

 
 

Every engagement begins with detailed communication and comprehensive scoping between you and our analysts. We do this in order to identify the specific challenges your organization is facing, and we narrow them down to one or a few major issues that we can tackle throughout the engagement. Then, our analysts perform extensive research, synthesize data, and present strategic solutions and actionable recommendations for your company.


Who will I be working with?

 

Generally, we assign 4-5 qualified USC students to each engagement. These students are selected not only on their academic and professional merits, but also their knowledge and interest in your organization’s particular mission and industry. Communication will be facilitated with the team’s Engagement Manager, who be on call to provide information and answer your questions at any time.


A typical engagement lasts about 10 weeks from start to finish. However, this time frame may be slightly longer or shorter depending on your organization’s specific needs.

How long is a typical engagement?

 

Nothing! Our high-quality consulting services are completely free.
