We work alongside our clients as a trusted advisor and consulting team to support capacity building. We do this by zeroing in on our clients’ greatest assets – their people – through organizational alignment to help achieve goals and priorities.

​

AvantGarde’s consulting support spans across the following areas:

​

• Organizational and People Assessments/Workforce Analytics: AvantGarde (AG) offers data-driven assessment and implementation solutions [RH1] pinpointing where clients are experiencing pain points. These can include areas such as employee engagement, workplace culture, workforce competency and skills; human capital alignment with OPM’s HCF Model, organizational needs (encompassing mission and/or function), succession planning, and recruitment.

​

• Process Improvement and Enablement: By understanding, developing, and streamlining processes, our consultants conduct end-to-end process reviews utilizing proven methodology and standards. We work with our clients to identify problem areas early on in a process to ensure quick wins can be achieved throughout the enterprise.

​

• Training and Development: Across development, facilitation, execution, and continuous improvement, our training and development approach is aligned to our clients’ mission and focused on long-term employee growth.

​

• Change Management: We believe change management is at the center of every major effort, therefore our consultants diligently work to understand a team’s collective and individual needs and work in small and large ways to identify opportunities to understand roadblocks, manage changes that arise, and focus on adoption and growth.

​

• Communications:  In every engagement, we realize that transparency around change is key. Therefore, throughout every engagement we can deploy a comprehensive communication strategy and plan to ensure the workforce, including union officials when appropriate, and managers are informed through each stage of the engagement.​
