Local project-leadership firm one of only seven U.S. consultancies to be given '2006 Small Jewels' award by industry-trade publication Consulting Magazine

SEATTLE, WA. (Mar. 14, 2006) — Point B Solutions Group, LLP, a professional-services firm specializing in project leadership, has been named one of the country’s top small-sized business-consultancies by Consulting Magazine. The national trade magazine recently gave Point B a “2006 Small Jewel” award, recognizing excellence in client impact, firm culture and innovation within the consulting arena.

"Once again our 'Small Jewels' expose the breadth and depth of consulting offerings today," said Jack Sweeney, editor-in-chief of Consulting Magazine. "These seven firms are not only innovative in terms of their client offerings, but they have also established consulting cultures that foster dynamic work environments for their people."

The 2006 Small Jewels program considered more than a hundred nominations from firms throughout the country with fewer than 250 billable consultants. Point B was one of only two firms in the Western U.S. named to the prestigious annual list. All seven 'Small Jewels' winners will be profiled in Consulting Magazine’s March/April issue.

"We’ve worked very hard to establish a reputation for excellence at Point B, both in the minds of our employees and organizations who need solutions to their most complex business initiatives," stated Tim Jenkins, Partner and Co-Founder of Point B. "We’re honored to be recognized by someone whose sole purpose is to track issues and trends concerning our industry."

The firm, which has practices in Portland, Seattle, Denver, Phoenix and San Francisco, serves numerous local businesses with a range of project-leadership services, including software-selection and implementation, clinical and business process improvements, and interim role replacement, among others.
