Summit Solutions
Providing Focused Consultation and Solutions for Your Business.
How we can help.
Each individual company within the Summit family focuses on a unique area of business strategy, allowing that company and its team to provide focused consulting and solutions where needed. Each company is further staffed by consultants and support staff with relevant business experience, training, and education in that field. In addition, the companies are further structured to be able to efficiently deliver comprehensive integrated solutions for clients who can benefit from guidance and support in more than one facet of business operations.

Strategic Planning
Strategic planning is the foundation of all processes and plans for the organizations. Summit can assist with all facets of strategic planning, including the facilitation of the planning process, drafting the plan document, and executing the plan.
Business Continuation
What would happen to your organization if you were suddenly unable to run it? Most businesses don’t have an answer for that, and are in danger of suffering large losses if that were to occur. Summit has a continuation model to help protect your business.
Business Coaching
Coaches play a valuable role in many aspects of our lives. They help direct us, encourage us, and hold us accountable. Summit consultants can provide that value to you and your business as well.
Succession Planning
Many successful businesses have failed to survive the transition to new ownership simply because the owner failed to put a plan in place. Whether you are trying to prepare for a planned exit or protect your business against an unforeseen event, Summit can help you develop the right plan for your business with succession planning.
Leadership Development
Most organizations do not have a structured process for identifying and preparing new leaders, which results in a lack of talent to lead the organization in the years to come. Summit’s Leadership Development programs can help identify, assess, and educate growing leaders and prepare them for increased roles.
Assessments
A comprehensive assessment is an invaluable resource in developing an effective strategic or business plan. Summit has developed a proprietary assessment process that pulls from a database of over two hundred questions to help organizations identify the facets of their operations that most need attention.
Six Sigma and LEAN
While the value of the Six Sigma and LEAN processes have been recognized for many years in manufacturing and industry, those same processes can also help service and professional businesses increase their efficiency and profitability as well.
Business Plans
An action plan for helping make your strategy and vision become a reality. Summit can assist with the development and execution of all facets of planning, including marketing, finance, human resources, and technology.
Advisory Boards
Large businesses and organizations provide Boards to help advise and support their top executives, but most small businesses do not have access to such a resource. Summit offers a scalable model to help make that accessible to all organizations.
Administrative Services
Keeping a business running from day-to-day is a lot of work. At Summit, we do the work for you, so you can focus on your mission. Below are a few of the services we offer. Feel free to reach out if you don’t see what you need.

Data Entry/Charts

Group Health Insurance
Health insurance can be expensive and confusing, but failing to be able to offer an attractive compensation plan to help recruit and keep good employees can be even more costly. Summit can help you put an affordable plan in place.
Section 125 Plans
Section 125 Plans can save both your company and your employees on their taxes. They allow employee contributions to be excluded from income and payroll taxes, while still being deductible to the company. Summit can help you stay compliant and save money.
Reimbursement Plans
Reimbursement programs like Section 105 Plans and the Qualified Small Employer Health Reimbursement Arrangement (or small business HRA) can be affordable and flexible solutions for even small employers.

Network Security
Network security is about having the right strategy in place for both processes and for equipment. Summit can connect you to the right resources to ensure that you are putting the right network in place to secure your data and promote employee efficiency.
Organizations don’t like thinking about risk, but how well they manage it can be the difference between survival and failure.
