Celebrating Four Years in Business
We took a look at our most requested services over the past four years. These are not necessarily the largest assignments or the most complex. It is probably not surprising that Criticality Analysis, Asset Management Assessments, Facilitation, and Root Cause Analysis topped the list.
It is probably also not too surprising that the most requested services did not necessarily produce the most revenues, at least on a per-project basis. More on that next month.
