Engagement  Jul 2022 – Jul 2023 (12 months) Operator Mike Reardon

Engaged by a nursing-professional-turned-entrepreneur to determine the viability of building a private healthcare staffing agency inside a public health system. The structural risk: revenue concentrated entirely in government contracts, exposed to budget cycles and policy shifts.

Delivered the Blueprint as a structured monthly engagement rather than a compressed multi-week sprint, paced to the owner’s learning curve and operational reality. Covered niche definition beyond government contracts, expansion into the private sector, operations streamlining, alternative service line development, digital transformation assessment, employee engagement structuring, and funding source identification. Defined a secondary private-sector customer to diversify revenues away from government dependence.

Outcome Strategic and operational foundation established. Secondary private-sector customer defined with $250K projected revenue value. Build phase outlined but not yet executed. The engagement ended at the readiness threshold rather than rushing past it.

Lesson That Travels

“The Blueprint paced to the owner’s learning curve is a legitimate variant. Saying so honestly, and stopping at the readiness threshold rather than pretending otherwise, is operator credibility rather than a missed opportunity.”

Why This Matters to You

Depending solely on government contracts inside a public health system is exposed revenue. Determining the right private-sector customer for diversification is the operator move, but only when the owner is ready to run it. Set the strategy, test it, and adapt to the pace the owner can sustain.
