Corporate Strategy for Ottawa operators.
SAZ partners with operators in Ottawa on corporate strategy — combining senior strategy partners with embedded delivery teams to ship outcomes, not deliverables.
Ottawa is home to 1.0M (metro) a high-velocity market for 3 of the industries we serve most deeply. The corporate strategy engagement is shaped around the local economics, talent base, and regulatory context of Ontario.
Corporate strategy at SAZ focuses on the highest-leverage choices a company makes: portfolio, capital allocation, and capability bets. We work with CEOs, boards, and ownership groups to set the corporate-level strategy that compounds over years, not quarters.
Outcomes for Ottawa operators.
- A defensible portfolio strategy with explicit invest / hold / divest calls
- A capital allocation framework tied to strategic return thresholds
- A 3–5 year corporate plan board members can defend
- Clear capability bets and build-vs-buy logic
Process tuned to local engagements.
