Bring me a problem worth investigating.

You are hiring judgment: define the real question, build the right analytical approach, examine the evidence, identify assumptions and gaps, and produce a defensible record of what the facts actually support.

I work across regulated and unregulated environments, including commercial, operational, technical, quality, workforce, systems, and evidentiary problems.

ESF and the other methods behind my work are tools I use. You are hiring the investigation, not buying the framework.

Services

What the work looks like

Evidence Sufficiency Review — For conclusions, claims, findings, recommendations, or decisions that need to be tested against the actual evidence.
Systems & Process Investigation — For recurring failures, broken workflows, contradictory metrics, drift, bottlenecks, and problems everyone keeps “fixing” without solving.
Independent Validation / Second Look — For existing analyses, audit findings, investigations, AI outputs, root-cause conclusions, or reports that need an independent challenge.
Custom Investigation — For messy, cross-functional, poorly defined problems that do not fit neatly into a box.

Relevant capabilities

Experience includes

SAP QM · QMS · Product Disposition · Deviation / CAPA · Validation / UAT · Excel / Data Analysis · Root Cause · Audit Readiness · Quality Systems · Manufacturing Operations · Process Analysis

The point is not the software. It is that I am comfortable working inside complex systems, tracing decisions across records and platforms, and finding the point where the evidence stops supporting the conclusion.

Fees

What you are paying for

You are paying for the investigation, not for a desired conclusion.

Initial Problem Review — $200: Focused intake, initial material review, question definition, obvious gaps, and recommended path forward.
Focused Investigation — starting at $850: For a defined question with a bounded evidence set and written findings.
Complex Investigation — starting at $1,750: For larger evidence sets, conflicting records, multiple stakeholders, regulated environments, or substantial ambiguity.
Independent Validation / Second Look — starting at $600
Advisory / Investigation Support — $110/hour: Two-hour minimum.
Custom or ongoing work: Quoted after scoping.

Professional boundaries

What I do not provide

I do not provide legal representation, legal advice, medical diagnosis, licensed engineering opinions, tax opinions, or other services that require credentials I do not hold.

I can investigate the systems, evidence, processes, records, assumptions, and decision logic surrounding those environments.

Client work stays private

Confidential by default

Client work is confidential by default.

The public Studies section contains demonstration and validation work intentionally created for public inspection. It is not a portfolio of client cases.

Client identities, evidence, findings, and deliverables are not published without explicit permission.

Bring me the ugly problem.

Tell me what is happening.

If the facts conflict, the explanation does not match the outcome, or the conclusion feels stronger than the evidence underneath it, that is probably worth looking at.
