Decision Support

“In my 30 years in the oil and gas business I’ve never met anyone as good as Lee at analysing complex problems and providing a logical set of options.  Lee assimilates everything from specialist technical input to the product market analysis and puts it all down on paper in a way that makes the convoluted appear common sense. With Lee involved defining the preferred strategic and value-enhancing option becomes straightforward.”

While those entrusted with this responsibility are selected for their experience and capability, decision-making processes are invariably burdened by some degree of ineffectiveness.

These issues arise despite the best intents of organisations and individuals.
