DLC PROVIDES FLEXIBLE,
EFFICIENT, ON-DEMAND EXECUTION
OF YOUR FINANCIAL PROJECTS.
We do the work. We get projects done.
That’s the point.
Projects are inflection points – they can lead to faster growth, more efficient
operations, and a healthier bottom line. But they can also be a challenge to manage
and execute. They can overburden executives and staff already busy with day-to-day
responsibilities, and can require skills and background that may not be present within
the organization.
The solution is DLC. We provide the people you need, whether that’s one consultant
or a team. They have the technical knowledge and hands-on experience you require.
They focus exclusively on your project until it is done – on time and on target.

THE RIGHT SOLUTION STARTS
WITH THE RIGHT FORMULA.
People. Fit. Execution.
Our goal – and yours – is successful completion of your project. Our formula for
accomplishing that is simple but powerful:
We start with the right people. DLC professionals apply years of formal training and
practical experience to their assignments.
We carefully analyze your project, and select consultants with the credentials and
hands-on expertise that fit your needs.
Then our people get to work, applying their know-how to complete your project.
DLC delivers talented people, selected to fit your specific project, who put their skills
to work for you.

WE ENSURE THAT OUR DLC CONSULTANTS MEASURE UP.
DLC full-time professionals are CPAs with Big 4 experience or MBAs from top
business schools, all with finance and accounting experience at Fortune 1000
companies. We attract top talent by creating an environment that recognizes and
rewards their abilities and capacity to make meaningful contributions to the clients
they serve. They have the technical training, desk-level expertise and people skills
to work effectively within your organization.

OUR CONSULTANTS’ SKILL SETS ARE ON TARGET FOR YOUR PROJECT.
Matching the right people to a project can dramatically accelerate its successful
completion. DLC analyzes our clients’ needs and distills them into required tasks and
skill sets; we then deploy consultants whose training, skills and experience are best
matched to the project.
STRATEGY WITHOUT EXECUTION IS PROMISE WITHOUT PERFORMANCE.
Our consultants don’t just hand you clever recommendations and walk away. We are
in the business of getting your projects done.

WHAT GOOD ARE EXPERIENCE
AND INSIGHT IF YOU CAN’T
EXECUTE?
Know. Think. Do.
KNOW: EXPERIENCE, SKILL
DLC consultants have the knowledge and experience to tackle financial projects
effectively. They are CPAs with Big 4 experience or MBAs from top business schools,
all with finance and accounting experience at Fortune 1000 companies.
THINK: APPLIED INSIGHT
Successful completion of a major project requires more than technical expertise.
It calls for an understanding of how companies work from the inside. Our consultants
understand how to ensure that project objectives align with your company’s immediate
needs and long-term goals.
DO: EXECUTION
DLC consultants are focused on delivering practical, effective solutions. We know
you want results, not just reports or recommendations. After we work with you to
identify the best approach to achieving your objective, we roll up our sleeves and get
the job done.

OUR UNIQUE OPERATING
MODEL MAY NOT SEEM THAT
EXCITING.
But to a CFO it looks grand.

DLC consultants are highly skilled professionals with superb credentials and broad
experience inside many of the world’s leading companies. From that rich pool of talent,
we select those consultants who have the technical knowledge
and desk-level experience to execute your project successfully.
These talented individuals choose to join DLC because we
offer a professional environment, unique long-term employment
agreements, and an employment package that recognizes
and rewards their skills.
DLC concentrates on financial project execution. Many consulting and professional service
firms support a range of ancillary offerings, such as tax and audit, which substantially
increase their overhead and legal liability.
Our focused service offering and lean operating model enable us to deliver exceptional
value. That means you pay for results, not overhead.

TALKING ABOUT “ADDED VALUE”
IS JUST THAT... IT’S TALK.
