ABOUT K12CP
K12 Channel Partners advises school and district administrators by analyzing Sole Source Provider bids and quotes, in-order to realize a cost savings back to the school or district. The proprietary analysis is based on two decades of education industry knowledge, which has been coupled with “Negotiation Essentials” methodologies. These methodologies have been influenced from The University of Notre Dame Mendoza College of Business and our historical management of K-12 external/in-house implementations. Moreover, our proprietary Factors and Negotiation Software™ “FANS” is influenced from the Education Department general Administrative Regulations “Edgar Act”.
KNOWLEDGE BASE
We have applied these ideas and methodologies extremely successfully in both the private and public sectors with clients ranging from Fortune 1000 companies to local schools and districts. Our team brings varied backgrounds coupled with a vast array of experiences to bear on our clients’ needs. Our team of professionals is also sensitive in our work –- after all, as our motto says, “What you see depends on where you stand.” We strive to live what we teach.
OUR KEY BENEFIT SOLUTIONS
The following four key factors distinguish K12 Channel Partners from the rest of the pack:
- We don’t just talk about the ideas –- we use them. We provide advice on real, current issues your organization is facing. We also make every effort to “walk the talk” –- that is, we live by the advice we give our clients. The point may seem obvious, but this is often easier said than done.
- We maintain a relentless focus on explaining how our ideas can be used in your context. We do this by learning about your business before the work begins, and then using specific examples, and case studies to draw the link. As a result, our clients are able to apply the tools and concepts immediately to their work.
- We are independent and do not represent any vendor or service provider. Independence allows us to be unbiased when providing our recommendation and analysis. Therefore, you can rest assured that your best interest is always at heart.
- A crucial final step is follow-up, to ensure the desired results were obtained. One-time interventions seldom produce the results an organization desires, yet this is all too often the practice among consulting and training firms.
CONTINUOUS LEARNING AND REFINEMENT
Our commitment is to continually improve our theory and practice based on what we learn through experience. This benefits you by keeping you on the leading edge, and it benefits us by providing ongoing personal and professional growth.
