Projects

Achieving policy goals Open Options worked with the top executives of a government agency to best manage the variety of stakeholders who could influence a key policy goal. Management and Directors said they had never been more aligned following the Open Options process.

Lobbying A leader in the financial services industry engaged Open Options to determine how to best influence upcoming legislative decisions. Their success following the Open Options process is only one of many. Many cases involve government lobbying as an essential element for success.

Engaging Governments A municipality wanted to revitalize its downtown by attracting a satellite campus of an important university. Open Options identified the sequence of actions that would deliver the necessary funding from higher levels of government. Today the satellite campus is complete.

Bidding Strategy Open Options successfully helped a mobile carrier clarify and refine its bidding strategy for a spectrum auction that was divided over several jurisdictions.

Corporate alignment A financial services company with numerous regional divisions and a strong tradition of local autonomy was deeply divided on how to re-structure the company to remain competitive. Open Options worked with all parties to find a strong consensus solution on how to best grow the overall business.

Finding a common purpose A government was attempting to rein in healthcare costs while the industry was trying to avoid further regulation. Open Options found a path forward that would motivate like-minded corporations and healthcare professionals to stand up for patient care against government interference.
