Our Vision

Most consulting stops at the recommendation. We don't.

FCI Advisory was founded in August 2020 in McLean, Virginia. Today we run an integrated practice across federal IT modernization, integration, advisory, and program execution — under our GSA Schedule, with active engagements across federal health, postal, and civilian missions.

FCI Advisory — federal advisory and delivery team in McLean, Virginia
Driven By Impact

Three principles shape every engagement.

Strategy that anchors

We start with the mission, not the methodology. Every engagement begins by aligning leadership priorities and outcomes — so the work that follows has a direction worth defending.

Intelligence that informs

Data, dashboards, scenarios, and AI built around how decisions actually get made. We turn signals into decisions and decisions into accountable next steps.

Execution that endures

PMO discipline, IT operations, procurement support, and governance that hold up under audit and across administrations. We stay long enough to make sure outcomes are real.

Our Legacy

Forged in complexity. Built for delivery.

FCI Advisory was founded on August 30, 2020 in McLean, Virginia, with one mandate: close the gap between strategic recommendation and operational delivery.

We were built for the moment when federal agencies and growing businesses alike were navigating unprecedented operational pressure — and getting plenty of strategy decks, but losing them in the gap to execution.

We do not hand off recommendations to a separate delivery group. The same team that designs the operating model implements it. FCI Operating Principle

An integrated practice was designed to work as a single team — so strategy, technology, and operational delivery never have to be reassembled by the client. Today, FCI partners with mission-critical organizations across federal government and the commercial sector, under our GSA Schedule, with platform partnerships across Boomi, Appian, OpenText, and DataDog.

Our Story

How FCI grew.

From corporate M&A advisory to an integrated federal practice. The path is the proof.

2020

Founded in McLean.

FCI Advisory is established on August 30, 2020 with one mandate: close the gap between strategic recommendation and operational delivery. Its first work — cross-sector M&A advisory — sets the firm's pattern: advisory tied to outcomes, not deliverables.

M&A · Transaction Advisory
2022

First federal contract.

A state transportation engagement marks the firm's first government contract — the moment FCI moves from private-sector advisory into public-sector delivery.

2025

Federal health, delivered Agile.

FCI engages on a federal health modernization program, providing Scrum Master and Team Coach services within a Value Management Office under SAFe Lean-Agile delivery.
