Start here

Three entry points. One standard: it works.

I

Process & Business Systems

The same report that takes three people three days shouldn't. The process nobody owns that costs a fortune in aggregate. Jeff finds the redundancies hiding in plain sight — across finance, HR, purchasing, operations, and back-office systems — and rebuilds the structure underneath them.

  • Workflow and process analysis
  • Financial systems and AP / AR
  • Payroll and HR systems
  • Back-office redesign
II

Technology Leadership

IT governance, ERP implementation and rescue, cybersecurity compliance, infrastructure architecture, vendor management. Jeff has led every major type of technology transition across industries — and knows exactly what fails and why. The implementation doesn't end when the consultant leaves.

  • IT governance & maturity roadmaps
  • ERP implementation & rescue
  • CMMC / NIST 800-171 compliance
  • MSP vendor management
III

Embedded Executive Leadership

Some problems require a senior leader inside the organization — not a consultant who visits. Jeff functions as vCIO, vCTO, and vCISO simultaneously, providing the continuity and cross-departmental authority that executive leadership requires. He has operated in this capacity for over 14 years — through ownership changes, technology transitions, and federal audits.

  • vCIO & vCTO
  • vCISO security leadership
  • Fractional & interim executive
  • Continuity through transitions

The AEM approach

Most consultants describe your problem back to you using your own words.
Jeff diagnoses what you haven't seen yet.

His approach is direct: eliminate redundancy, free your people for work that matters, and build systems your organization can sustain without him. He has done this across Process Reinvention, IT governance, ERP implementations, cybersecurity compliance, and operational infrastructure — often simultaneously.

He doesn't just advise. He delivers — then stays until the solution works in the field, with the people who will use it, under real conditions.

"His ability to communicate with our group is outstanding — from our COO to people in the field. He sees things completely differently from most people." — Client, Superior Energy Services
01

Finds what others miss

The real trouble lives in the spaces between departments — the process nobody owns, the report that costs three people three days and shouldn't. Jeff uncovers the origin of problems, not just the symptoms.

02

Validates before implementing

No recommendation goes live until it has been tested under real working conditions with the people who will use it. Conference-room solutions fail in the field. Jeff has been in the field since age nine.

03

Builds to last — then leaves

Solutions are designed to run without him. He works himself out of a job. But when the next problem arrives, clients know exactly who to call.

Featured result

$26M ↗ $132M

Revenue in under two years.
With fewer employees than before.

In 2003, a CEO hired Jeff to prepare an oilfield service company for sale. He rebuilt the infrastructure underneath everything — computers, networks, telephones, processes and procedures.

In the two years that followed, the company went from $26 million to $132 million in annual revenue. Rather than hiring a small army to manage that exponential growth, they were able to reduce corporate headcount.

"Jeff is intelligent, competent, strategic and analytical. I call him a living computer. If a company wants to position itself for growth, Jeff is the guy." — Sherry Latour, then President, IE Miller Services  ·  CEO, Tops Cabinets & Appliances

"He may not come with a solution, but he will figure one out very quickly — and he completes everything he starts."

Who calls AEM

Organizations at an inflection point.

Growing faster than your systems

Revenue is outpacing your infrastructure. The same processes that worked at $10M are breaking at $50M.

Preparing for a transaction

Acquisition, IPO, or leadership transition. You need operations that can survive due diligence and new ownership.

Navigating a technology change

New ERP, cloud migration, compliance mandate. A failed implementation isn't an option.

Aware something is costing you

You can't identify the source, but the cost is real. You need someone who can find what you've stopped seeing.

Not size — it's the willingness to hire someone to tell you what you're missing, rather than validate what you already believe.

Before you reach out

Here's exactly what happens
in a first conversation.

It starts with one question: "What brought you here?"

That's not a formality. Your answer — however rough — is the beginning of the diagnostic. Jeff will ask questions based on what you tell him. More questions than you expect. That's how he works.

He'll ask about your business, the history of the problem, who it affects, how decisions get made, and what success looks like in 12 months. He'll describe his approach and how he prices engagements. You'll both know by the end of the call whether it's worth moving forward.

There is no pitch. No capability overview. No proposal you didn't ask for.

01

You describe the problem as you understand it — Jeff listens for what you haven't said yet

02

He asks about the business, the history, the people it affects, the pressure behind it

03

He describes his approach — direct, field-validated, no recommendations without proof

04

Rates, scope, and fit — addressed directly so neither side wastes time

05

A clear answer: worth moving forward, or not — for both parties

See if we're the right fit

If you can see the cracks before others do —
that's exactly when to call.

Jeff works with a small number of clients at a time and takes only engagements where the fit is right. The first conversation is a diagnostic — no pitch, no pressure.

Jeff will read whatever you send before he calls. A few words is enough.

A few factual details help the first conversation cover more ground. Nothing here asks about people, culture, or history — those are better heard live.
