FAQs

 

What type of firm are you? 

Dictionary.com defines consulting as - engaged in the business of giving expert advice to people working in a professional or technical field.  We are a Professional Services Provider and believe we can provide unique value approaching our work with clients as if we had been hired for a specific position.  Simply stated, we go beyond expert advice to offer fractional operational leadership positions and temporary staffing.

Why did you decide to create the Verito Group and what does the name mean?

We believe the timing is optimal given the market needs for supply chain capabilities merged with the gig economy.  People are searching for opportunities where they can learn and grow while solving challenging business problems across different industries and companies.  We bring over 60 years of broad experience across multiple industries along with a large network of individuals and businesses.  We believe that we have a unique position to match the amazing talent in the marketplace with client needs to provide results and outcomes better than anyone else.

Pronounced Ver-it-o.  The word comes from "veritá" which is the latin word for "truth" in English.   We want to bring truth and transparency to the operations and supply chain which is inherently difficult to do.  

As a small firm why do you cover such a broad range of services versus specializing, and how do you do it?   

Supply-chain operations reference (SCOR) model is a process reference model endorsed by the Supply Chain Council that categorizes an operation based on six distinct management processes: Plan, Source, Make, Deliver, Return, and Enable.  Often challenges clients face cross the entire end to end operation, however, improvements need to be addressed in a layered (or theory of constraints) approach solving first the most pressing problem.  Therefore it’s important to have capability across the entire range of operations and supply chain.

Our primary approach is fractional leadership or staff augmentation which enables us to operate as part of the team giving us on the ground insights to diagnose and prioritize the improvement areas.  With our broad network of talent, along with our experience and capabilities, we can then apply specific talent to address problem areas in a structured roadmap approach.  We also will collaborate with strategic partners who have unique experience in particular areas such as, medical device quality or global manufacturing strategy development, allowing us to bring both depth and breadth in addressing the needs of clients.

Do you have experience only in medical device companies?

We have a significant depth of experience in the medical device industry, but have also worked in telecommunications, direct to consumer, quick service restaurants, publishing and CPG companies.
