Concentric Network Economy Consulting provides specialized services to the full range of organizations driving the network economy.
From community-based organizations to commercial exchange systems, enterprise networks and clusters, regional and national governments, banks and electronic transaction technology firms, our innovative economic ideas are at the cutting edge of the emerging Network Economy.
Concentric is a team of consultants located around the world, coordinated by Stephen DeMeulenaere, a recognized expert on complementary currency and network economy systems based in Asia with international experience. His work has been featured in 'The Future of Money' by Bernard Lietaer and 'Healthy Money, Healthy Planet', by Deirdre Kent.
Our Services are:
1. Pre-Implementation Assistance. This can mean feasibility studies, business plans and break-even calculations, cost-recovery methodology, and assistance with any issues prior to implementation.
2. Strategic Analysis and System Design. This involves research, workshops and simulations with clients and target groups to determine the type of system that would be most suitable (and sustainable) to implement. This is a more advanced step in our pre-implementation assistance program.
3. System Assessments and Analysis. For systems that have already started, we conduct performance assessments and provide an analysis that can help your system to improve its operations or generate increased revenue. This can also include the physical assessment of enterprise cluster, value chain and network flow operations.
4. Technical Assistance & Technology Sourcing. New technologies are emerging fast, we stay on top of these trends so the technology you choose will last as long as possible and not become outdated within a year or two. The opposite can also be beneficial: use of older technologies may be perfectly suited to the task and be much cheaper to implement than a new technology. We help you to determine which is best suited to your task.
5. Administration, Management, Policy, Legal Assistance. Reducing unnecessary overhead improves your financial bottom line. We help develop systems and structures that minimize costly expenses while improving the delivery of services to your customers. Our experience in ensuring the legal operations of network economy systems can help you get all the information you need from your legal assistance.
6. Ongoing Advisory Services. Contracting us on a long-term basis brings many value-added benefits to your operations. Our experience working with Boards of Directors can help you to deliver your vision to the market.
New, developing and emerging economies can gain significant advantages through applying the network economies to their economic development programs, providing the capital and consumer foundations for new product development, import substitution and 'buy local' campaigns.
