Do your people have the skills, knowledge, personal attributes, and energy to take your company to the next level? Are your processes customer-focused and cost efficient?

“How does one take a 72 year old company and supercharge the management, employees, change the culture and get everyone excited about the future? My answer is, hire Tom O’Connor and FCG. We have. Without the leadership and experience Tom has brought to our team, we would not be close to being on a successful path. Because of Tom, we now have focus, direction, teamwork, we have round pegs in round holes, we have increased sales and increased profits, we have our customers, employees, suppliers, and even competition now recognizing that, at Consolidated Supply Co., it is not business as usual.”
Karl Neupert, Consolidated Supply Co.
