Since 1992 Collins Consulting has been engaged by boards of directors and senior management to help solve problems, brainstorm new ideas, and make strategic decisions. Here are just a few examples of solutions that have helped our clients succeed.

Operational Reviews

• Strategic Decision Making: Reviewed the operations of a public entity risk pool and assisted the directors in making long-range strategic decisions including:

• The development of interactive workbooks that enabled the board to move quickly through several complicated discussions. 
• Researched similar programs using our contacts in the industry to give the board perspectives on successful initiatives at other pools.
• Performed a cost-benefit analysis on the management company fee structure.

• Business Plan Development: Reviewed the operations of an insurance company and developed a business plan to assist them with making decisions regarding taking several of their outsourced functions in-house.

M&A Due Diligence

• Acquisitions: Planned and performed due diligence on nineteen P&C acquisitions for one client. This included interviews of key personnel to assist with restructuring decisions in an effort to improve overall financial performance.


• Divestiture: Conducted due diligence, valuation modeling, pro forma financial modeling, term sheet preparation, and reinsurance structuring, for the divestiture of an agency from a captive with approximately $50 million in annual premium written.

Financial Analysis and Modeling

Collins analyzed the fund surplus needs of a public entity risk pool and we evaluated their financial position, created extensive spreadsheet models that showed how specific changes would affect their fund surplus in the future, and presented strategic recommendations to the board of directors. Electronic copies of the models were provided to the client to assist them with future long-range planning.

Project Management

Collins created the original structure of an executive management team of a healthcare insurance company over a four-year period. The team was created for the purpose of identifying and resolving cross-divisional business risks, increasing communication at an executive level, and creating corporate accountability. Collins developed an extensive system to track the 400 identified business risks using relational database software. The team became an integral part of the corporate structure and was highly successful in solving cross-divisional problems.

Procedure Development and Training

Collins conducted a thorough review of policies and procedures for a Medicare HMO product including both revising existing policies and writing new ones to conform to changing regulations and operating policies issued by CMS, the governmental agency that administers Medicare and Medicaid.
