Our company mission

The mission of NMS Consulting is clear. We work with leaders and organizations to solve important business problems in strategy, change and performance, and to turn plans into results that can be seen in operations, financials and teams.

In practical terms, our mission means:

• Focusing on topics that matter for clients, rather than chasing activity for its own sake.
• Linking advisory work to clear decisions, actions and results.
• Combining structured analysis with experience from similar situations in other organizations and sectors.
• Building internal capability so that clients can carry work forward after projects end.

This mission is used when we decide which assignments to accept, how we compose teams and how we measure our own contribution at the end of an engagement.

The values that guide our work

Values at NMS Consulting are used as working rules, not only as statements on a page. They guide how people behave with clients and colleagues, and how trade offs are handled when goals compete.

Client impact first

We aim for work that improves client performance, resilience and confidence, even if that means advising against a project or choice that is not in the client interest. Clear, practical results matter more than slide volume or meeting counts.

Straight conversation

We give clear, respectful views, including when they are uncomfortable. Teams are expected to raise risks and concerns early, and to share what they see in data and in client organizations in simple language.

Shared ownership of results

We view projects as joint work between client teams and advisors. We accept our share of accountability for the quality of analysis, options and plans, while keeping final decisions and line leadership in client hands.

Respect for people and time

We treat people with respect, inside and outside the firm. That includes attention to work patterns, clear preparation for meetings and a bias toward making good use of the time that leaders and teams spend with us.

Learning and improvement

Every engagement is an opportunity to learn. We ask what went well, what did not and what we will change next time. We share methods and lessons across offices so that clients benefit from knowledge built in other places and sectors.

How our history has shaped the firm

NMS Consulting was formed by senior professionals with experience in large companies, investment roles and international consulting. The firm has since grown by serving clients across sectors such as industrials, services, healthcare, consumer goods and technology related businesses.

Several features of our history influence how we work today:

• Many of our leaders have held executive roles inside companies, so they understand the practical limits and pressures that clients face when turning advice into action.
• Experience in finance and transactions means we pay close attention to value, risk and communication with boards and investors.
• Work across regions has taught us to adapt approaches to local conditions, regulatory requirements and cultures while keeping a consistent standard for analysis and delivery.
• A focus on strategy, change and performance over time has created a strong base of tools, examples and reference cases that can be adapted to new situations.

We review our history regularly, not for marketing, but to check whether we are still focusing on the topics where we can help most and whether our ways of working match what clients now need.

How we work with clients today

The mission, values and history of NMS Consulting are expressed in the way we structure and deliver work. Across assignments, several patterns are consistent.

• Clear definition of the question. We work with clients to define the problem, the decisions that need to be made and the outcomes that matter most before designing work.
• Joint teams. Advisors and client staff work together on analysis, design and delivery, which strengthens internal ownership and learning.
• Transparent methods. We explain how we reach conclusions, and we leave tools and approaches behind so that clients can reuse them in later work.
• Direct access to senior people. Clients can speak with partners and senior team members who have handled similar situations, not only with junior staff.
• Measurable results. We agree simple measures where possible, such as financial impact, progress on key milestones or changes in behavior and engagement.

As a result, work with NMS Consulting is usually focused on specific decisions and changes, rather than open ended activity. This matches our mission and protects client time and resources.

Governance and leadership

NMS Consulting is led by partners who take shared responsibility for client work, people and the financial health of the firm. Governance is designed to balance local flexibility with clear standards for quality and risk.

Practical features of our governance include:

• A clear role for the Chief Executive Officer and senior leadership team in setting direction and checking that work aligns with the firm mission and values.
• Partner groups and committees that review important investments, senior hiring and quality related matters.
• Simple reporting on client feedback, project outcomes and people related measures, used to guide decisions rather than to create extra administration.
• Regular discussion of ethics and risk topics, so that teams feel supported when raising questions about work.

Leadership and governance arrangements are reviewed and adjusted as the firm grows and as client needs change, with the aim of keeping decision making clear and responsive.
