Mentor Protégé Program
Rarely are small businesses able to comprehend the value of institutionalizing best business practices as a major component of building a lasting business infrastructure. This has been T&H's focus since 1996, and we have executed this approach via various Federal Mentor-Protégé Programs. T&H's leaders had the business acumen and foresight to avoid "reinventing the wheel" by finding the right large-business strategic ally, adopting many of the ally’s business practices, and fine-tuning those business practices to support T&H's unique challenges, goals, and culture. Our large-business mentor is BearingPoint, Inc., one of the world's largest and most prestigious information technology and management consulting organizations.
T&H has an excellent track record, outstanding client references, and an established foundation for future success, which are criteria for acceptance into Federal Mentor-Protégé Programs. T&H has been accepted into the following Mentor-Protégé Programs in partnership with BearingPoint, Inc. as our mentor.
- Treasury Department
- Department of Defense
- Small Business Administration
Generally speaking, these Mentor-Protégé Programs are focused on refining T&H's infrastructure within the following critical business areas:
- Business Development
- Contract Management
- Program and Project Management
- Business Improvement and Advisory Services
- Assessment of Client Technology and Infrastructure Needs
- Industry Best Practices
T&H is implementing more structured and repeatable knowledge management procedures, which significantly enhances our ability to deliver thought leadership for our clients. We are also adopting streamlined internal controls, increased workflow automation, and quality assurance processes and procedures, which translate to higher productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness. A byproduct of these value-added activities is high employee morale and retention, and the retention of critical, client-specific intellectual capital within T&H.
