U-CAN is NOT a Consulting Firm
We area change management partner that provides ACCESS to every sort of expertise you might require: from research to project management to financing models to technical analysis. If you have a “bleeding edge” challenge, need help taking your program to the next level, or want to cut through the possible solutions to find the best, most integrative approach, call us.
Our Model is Network Driven
We have a core team of executives with deep roots in the energy and sustainability communities, Our project teams are assembled from a stable of hundreds of experts from across the country, with whom we have established relationships and can partner as needed. Thus, we only incur costs when we do projects, keeping our fixed expenses negligible and allowing us to offer truly competitive costs for world class expertise. Think of it as a brain trust tailored toward your goals and needs – “crowd sourcing” at its most sophisticated.
We are a group of pragmatic idealists: sustainability professionals who want to change the world, and who know that change requires a sound business model, long term commitment, know how and flexibility. As a registered L3C in Vermont, our driver is mission, not profit. But we, like you, recognize financial imperatives as a foundation of long term viability.
