Principles

Executive consulting in financial services & technology

Organizational sensitivity is key for how we operate. Every situation demands a bespoke tone of voice. However, when it comes to our advice to you, there will be no sugarcoating. Problems can be solved best when the unfiltered truth is addressed.

We are straightforward

We stick to the scope

We don't like scope drift. We deliver on a clear statement of work without 'everything is related to everything' narratives to expand the assignment.

Don't expect an abundancy of slides. We know how to separate the relevant from the irrelevant and focus on the drivers of your problem or demand. Even the most complex business-cases, models or strategic roadmaps can be captured in a concise and understandable structure.

We do not like fluff

Addressing a challenge in a complex environment can be tricky. Sometimes you need us to be in the line of fire, sometimes you need us to operate below the radar. No matter the situation, we apply the style that is required to achieve the highest impact for your business.

We adapt to the situation

Specialists in financial modelling

Blackfield specializes in financial modelling to enable companies to establish standardized total cost of ownership across domains, and to adopt integrated activity-based costing (ABC) models that provide a holistic view on costs of assets.

A holistic view on your costs

Business case - Guide decision making by outlining the rationale for initiating a particular project or initiative, presenting its expected benefits, costs, risks, and potential return on investment.

Total cost of ownership - Identify the overall cost associated with owning and operating an asset or system, including expenses such as maintenance, support, and operational costs.

Activity-based costing - Assign costs to specific activities or tasks based on their actual consumption of resources, providing an accurate understanding of the true cost drivers within an organization.

We've been there

Over 50 years of corporate experience at executive level. Concrete advice, based on 10,000+ hours of consultancy.

We work efficiently

Concrete proposals, stripped of the fluffy elements. Your time is precious, we shape our deliverables around this.

We go for impact

Your success is our goal and our experience is your benefit. We do not mince words, our honesty will be our first promise.

Our story

Foundations

Based in Amsterdam, Blackfield was founded in 2022 by three consultants who shared the recognition that established consultancy firms are mostly hired based on their well-maintained perception of sophisticated output, while the mechanics behind the slides are often no rocket science at all. We believe that if you handle complexity in a structured and consistent way, the solution usually becomes pretty straight-forward.

Fundamental principles

On the back of this conviction, the Blackfield consulting services are based on four fundamental principles: "We're straightforward", "We don't like fluff", "We adapt to the situation" and "We stick to the scope". These principles enable us to find solutions for your challenges in a structured and controlled way.

Seasoned professionals

The Blackfield team looks back on 50+ years of experience of managing organizational transformations and cost efficiency programs across industries. We are familiar with the dynamics of bringing external consultants into your organization and we have a strong view on this. Instead of the transactional approach of handing over a lot of slideware, we believe in leveraging the knowledge and expertise present in your workforce to the fullest.
