Business people shaking hands

Great Thinking. Great Outcomes.

Triage opened its doors believing technology is only as good as the business process it serves. Fifteen years later we’ve proven our case in the world’s most demanding, mission-critical environments.

We’ve earned the trust of DHS, the VA, the IRS, and others like them. But the Triage mission remains the same. We refocus business, tech, and security consulting on optimal alignment of strategy and IT. We offer top-echelon experts who know how to listen and communicate. And we create prudent, technology-neutral custom solutions in partnership with clients.

The Triage Group is a woman-owned business founded in 2005.

The Triage Group refocuses business and technology consulting on the proper priorities: verifiable process improvements, prudent solutions, and fearless partnerships with customers. We deliver unsurpassed counsel and expertise without giant-firm impediments.
