What Makes Us Different?

  • We have a tenured team of consultants who have in-depth experience in all levels and all sectors of the Oil & Gas, Chemicals, and Oilfield Services industry. We speak the language and understand the complexities of the industry, which enables us to hit the ground running from day one and avoid costly learning curves.

  • Due to our targeted focus on the energy value chain, we understand and can easily identify the value drivers, best practices, and internal/external factors that are most likely to affect outcome and maximize results, giving our clients valuable insight that is not available elsewhere.

  • We understand that creating clarity and a roadmap is only part of our job.We also ensure our client’s personal success.That means we don’t walk away as soon as a decision is reached and a strategy is defined – we see the project all the way through to successful implementation.

  • We have a proven, proprietary Integrated Decision Management™ process; however, we don’t offer a “cookie cutter” solution. We consider all the conditions, issues, and variables unique to our client, and then craft an approach that is tailored specifically to the company and the decision at hand, leading to more accurate results.

  • We help clients develop their own in-house expertise through ongoing coaching on major projects and customized internal training programs. This allows clients to build on the skills already learned and/or strengthen the decision-making abilities of the entire organization.

  • Often, there are many paths to a similar outcome. With Decision Strategies, we help clients make not only the right decision, but also the best decision that will save time, resources, dollars, and yield the greatest return.

  • Through our in-house marketing research and consulting group, we can assess market demand and dynamics to create an insightful picture of the competitive environment, which enables us to facilitate the decision-making process more completely.

  • Further enhancing Decision Strategies connection to the industries we serve, we created and host the Oilfield Breakfast Forum – one of the largest discussion forums in the worldwide petroleum industry. Held three times a year in Houston, this forum is comprised of a panel of leading executives from oil companies, service companies, drilling contractors, key segments of the petroleum industry, and industry analysts. This event is regularly attended by 600 to 800 managers and executives from all facets of the petroleum industry.
