DavenportLawrence was established in 2008 as a consulting and resource augmentation firm exclusively for local governments supporting local government professionals faced with a variety of integrated challenges. Unlike most local government consultants, DavenportLawrence brings to each client a broad level of experience and expertise within public and private sectors to establish "best of breed" solutions in the areas of technology (infrastructure and applications), operational processes, shared services, operational analytics, utility operations, project management, economic development, and financial services. We invest significant resources in developing strategic partnerships which deliver seamless projects with experts in areas where service delivery is required by single-focused, highly proficient companies in telecommunications and information technology. Our firm has a proven track history in operational enhancements and our consultants are highly trained and experienced in each major function of local government operations. The diverse experience of DavenportLawrence enables the use of a "systems" approach to problem solving and provides the opportunity for organizations to engage in a customized and complex process of internal operational assessment and recommendations that fit the culture, competencies, finances, and expectations for each unit of local government. The cross-functional relationship of many governmental activities requires a firm that understands local government services and their implications internally as well as for the citizens of the unit of government. Our clients are found in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida and they consider DavenportLawrence a trusted solutions partner for their local government operations. DavenportLawrence is how local government does big business.
