We are a powerful advisory service to Fortune 1000 executives that helps them identify and evaluate the right consultants to solve their complex business problems.

As buyers of consulting services have become more sophisticated, the consulting marketplace has become much more fractured and specialized. You are defining engagements in terms of very specific deliverables and require highly specialized expertise. Consequently generalist-consulting firms whom buyers have previously used are often not the right resource for the latest project. Using one of these firms can lead to disappointing results.

The alternative - searching for the best, qualified specialty firms is time-consuming and expensive on both sides. This is where ProfessionaLink comes in. We make it our business to scour the consulting industry to find the best firms in each area of expertise, classify them and screen them for quality.

- 'Boutique' firms are higher quality, lower cost…but hard to find
- Consultants spend a lot of time and money to find projects
