Fractional COO Services
Helping Organizations Grow from Scrappy to Sustainable
About Grundies Consulting LLC
Hi! I’m Adele Grundies, a Fractional COO based in Denver. I work alongside founders, executive directors, and team leaders to untangle the operational complexity that comes with growth. I work with professional service organizations of 10-40 people who are ready to grow or have already outgrown their current operational infrastructure.
When systems are disjointed, the cost isn’t just inefficiency — it’s your people’s attention. The spreadsheets, the manual reports, the workarounds, the unanswered questions. All of it pulls your team away from the work that actually matters. My mission is to help your team stop managing workarounds and shift to a mature, sustainable structure.
Services
Tech Systems & Data Infrastructure
Comprehensive audit and redesign of your operational infrastructure. I assess current systems, implement modern technology platforms, establish data-driven KPIs, and create scalable processes that replace the workarounds with systems that free up time for your team to focus on client work.
Hiring Infrastructure & Talent Management
End-to-end hiring solutions including selection and configuration of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), establishment of hiring processes, job description development, candidate assessments, and leadership of hiring committees to build the right team for your growth.
Financial Operations & Budget Management
Whether you need to make budget reductions or have additional funding to invest, those financial decisions are a set of choices about people, systems, growth, and risk. I translate financial reality into better operations decisions that are connected to your revenue forecast, cash position, and organizational goals.
