Company Profile
PathFinder Consulting Group L.L.C. is a strategic consulting and web design/development firm, providing scalable solutions that help clients achieve measurable success. However you measure success -- in terms of productivity, profit, service, or satisfaction -- we will deliver, stating our achievements in terms of your own.
We Provide Valuable Insight & Produce Measurable Results
Information technology typically focuses on selling features instead of value. As consultants first, we enable you to focus goals, ROI, and your bottom-line. We created our in-house web design and development organization to extend our foundation as strong business advisors; one simply cannot find a “business-first technology team”anywhere else. (Go ahead, Google it…)
Leadership from Real Business Experience
Founder Charles Levin formed PathFinder Consulting Group, L.L.C. in 1995 to offer leading-edge services to the emerging eBusiness world. With decades of experience in retail, consulting, and as an adjunct professor at Fairleigh Dickinson University, his edge was clear: the ability to understand business at its core, identify ways to best apply web technology, and communicate clearly with business owners and managers.
Adding a leadership team with similar depth meant that PathFinder would remain uniquely able to focus on critical success factors, business/organizational objectives, and key metrics. PathFinder transforms IT from mere "information" to intelligence technology.
Our Respect for Process and Esteem for Relationships
Our proven process to help clients succeed is highly disciplined and plan-driven. As expected, its milestones broadly comprise strategy, specification/design, engineering/coding, testing/implementation, and maintenance. In terms of approach, we borrow from the traditional project model that's been used with success across industries. Our unique observation, however, is that today's rapidly-changing global market demands process evolution—a shift in thinking towards new process models. PathFinder's model allows compact teams comprised of highly motivated, exceptionally skilled individuals to outmaneuver those with legacy approaches.
Our ideas about client relationships and customer satisfaction are also forward-thinking. (For instance, when we say a good relationship means everything, we actually believe it…) Our unflinching Satisfaction Guarantee stems not only from confidence in our process and our people, but the knowledge that a relationship built on trust, integrity and face-to-face communication is able to set the stage for unparalleled success.
