TRC Advisory is a Chicago-based boutique consulting firm that helps clients define and deploy the strategies and tactics necessary to outperform. We focus on those decisions and actions that will maximize value creation via both growth and profitability improvement. At TRC, our team is our greatest asset. We pride ourselves on always being able to field the “A-team” as part of any client engagement, and we are looking to complement that team with a network of experienced strategists and thought leaders.
TRC’s Core Service Offerings:
Growth Strategy and Value Creation Playbooks – We build alignment around the participation and competitive strategies necessary to win – translating those decisions into a playbook that enables effective execution against the key levers to accelerate value creation
Go-to-Market Transformation and Commercial Effectiveness - We strengthen the commercial ‘muscle’ of the organization – identifying and driving action behind changes in the go-to-market model, resourcing and processes necessary to accelerate profitable growth with existing and new customers
Pricing Excellence and Mix Management - We embed the toolkit, capabilities and mindset necessary to ‘change the DNA’ of an organization as it relates to pricing excellence while accelerating realization of near-in margin enhancement opportunities
Resource Productivity and Creating 'Fuel for Growth' - We identify the sources of cost and complexity that don’t drive ‘value to’ or ‘value from’ priority customers and markets, enabling those resources to be redeployed to drive growth and/or deliver higher margin dollars
