About Us
Rommel & Alderman (R&A) Consulting is an independent management consulting firm focused on the delivery of strategy and operations solutions to energy and asset management clients to include electric utilities, renewables, and oil & gas (focus on upstream/midstream). Our core solutions are management strategies, business operating models, and implementation plans tailored to each individual business’s goals and constraints. We are well versed in helping clients with technology-focused programs to transform asset management operations while balancing costs and optimizing the deployment of resources.
R&A was established out of a desire to bring the experiences and industry knowledge of its team directly to clients in a way that best serves their needs and fits their business. Before forming as an independent firm, R&A developed and led its core business practice across three large global consultancies. R&A has over 15 years of management consulting experience providing advisory services to organizational leaders, with over 10 of those in service as a practice dedicated to supporting energy clients and distributed asset owners. Through these experiences, R&A has developed a unique business with distinct capabilities grown and refined through client feedback and delivery experience. We seek to continue this proven business while utilizing our new platform to improve our ability to streamline, right-size, and flex in a manner that generates the best value for our clients.
Our number one priority is to create an enduring impact on our clients’ business and the individuals we work with. We enjoy the flexibility to deliver unique solutions using the appropriate project structures, fees, skillsets, and timelines that enable us to meet clients where they are. Our independence, industry experience, and business structure also enables us to accelerate to supporting clients with their most pressing needs by removing distractions. We want to solve problems, not just talk about them.
Our Values
-
We provide our clients with a unique, outside-in perspective that is experience and data-driven. We strive to help clients see around corners and fill gaps while they focus on executing their day-to-day business.
-
We are always supportive of our clients but our experience shows us that a source of value is by saying “no” and sharing difficult messages. We believe we fail if we do not operate objectively and present ideas that challenge our clients to improve.

We integrate into our clients as a team-member by emphasizing that our involvement is in complete service of creating a better reality for those in the organization. Our role only exists as long as we are creating value in the eyes of those we are supporting.

We believe in solving problems and not simply providing solutions. We want to drive change and create lasting impact by developing unique, sustainable solutions through transformative thinking.
