What Expertise Do They Have?
External IT and management consultants, such as A.M.T.A.E Solutions and Stimler Advantage, can bring breadth and depth of diverse and unique expertise to help you and your organization. Consultants who have worked across domains can offer insightful, relevant, and tested recommendations from adjacent and direct competitors and peers in your industry.
External consultants can serve as project managers and visionary leaders motivated to help you achieve your desired change management and transformation goals. These consultants can distinguish between mission-critical, operationally enhancing changes, and those made simply for the sake of change. Incentivized external IT and management consultants can provide your organization with clarity of purpose and precise execution to achieve your goals.
What Benefit Do They Bring?
As external IT and management consultants, A.M.T.A.E Solutions and Stimler Advantage are entrepreneurial and trained independent experts ready to hit the ground running with a “Let’s Go!” mindset.

A fresh set of seasoned eyes focused on helping you solve your problems as efficiently and precisely as possible can be the difference maker you need to augment your team, build capacity, and reach new platforms of possibility.
What Are Their Roles and Responsibilities?
Importantly, A.M.T.A.E Solutions and Stimler Advantage, as external information technology and management consultants, play complementary roles as collaborative independent advisors with board members, executive leadership, and management. The separation from the organization that external consultants have in their roles is a crucial distinction to empower these independent experts with the authority to do their jobs with the pace, power, and precision needed in service of the organization.
When hiring consultants, you want a broad yet relevant range of experiences to inform your strategic approaches. Seek consultants whose approach and mindset are inspired by their efforts to proactively expand their knowledge, skills, and techniques with a multifaceted toolkit that can be prudently applied in addressing your needs. Working with consultants who collaborate or team with multiple subject matter experts (SMEs) can help provide the coverage needed when problem-solving.
Why and When Do I Need Them?
External IT and management consultants, like A.M.T.A.E Solutions and Stimler Advantage, provide a range of tactical and strategic services to help your organization. Plan to consult them on a project or retainer basis before a problem to ensure that you and your organization are focused, prepared, and taking progressive action.
Investing in external IT and management consulting services before a tactical or strategic initiative begins can help you and your organization avoid costly delays, losses, misdirection, roadblocks, and stasis. Build the best team you can, with the vital support of external consultants, to accomplish your organization’s mission goals.
