Mejorando Group

What Mejorando Group does

Mejorando Group is a privately-held professional services consulting firm founded in 2002 that specializes in serving local and municipal government agencies across the United States. The firm's flagship offering is Government Succession Planning, supplemented by Leadership and Management Development, Learning and Training workshops, Organizational Effectiveness consulting, Strategic Planning facilitation, Team Performance services, Futures Planning, and Keynote Speaking engagements delivered by co-founders Patrick Ibarra and Kristin Esty Ibarra. The company has no proprietary software or technology platform; all services are delivered as custom, human-facilitated consulting engagements tailored to each government client's needs.

The firm operates with a very small team (1-10 employees) and reaches clients across at least 14 US states (including California, Texas, Arizona, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, South Dakota, North Dakota, Wisconsin, New Mexico, South Carolina, Kansas, and Missouri) through direct consultative sales, content marketing, newsletter distribution, association webinars, and a steady keynote speaking presence at government conferences. It holds a Minority-Business Enterprise certification from the Minority Supplier Development Council, which it uses as a procurement lever with diversity-conscious public-sector buyers. Revenue is generated entirely through professional services fees on custom engagements; pricing is not publicly disclosed, there are no external funding rounds, no parent company, and no M&A activity on record.

Direct peers

• GovHR USA: GovHR USA delivers executive recruitment, HR consulting, and management services to municipalities and counties. Closely comparable in customer base (local government) and overlapping offerings in succession planning and leadership development.
• The Novak Consulting Group: Novak Consulting Group provides management consulting to local governments, including strategic planning, organizational assessment, and leadership development. Comparable in niche, scale, and service mix.
• CPS HR Consulting: CPS HR Consulting provides HR consulting, talent management, and organizational development services exclusively to public-sector clients. Highly comparable in vertical focus, HR/succession advisory, and government-only go-to-market.
• Raftelis: Raftelis provides management consulting to local governments and utilities, with adjacent practices in organizational effectiveness and strategic planning. Comparable government-only vertical with overlapping service lines.
• Management Partners: Management Partners is a small consulting firm focused on city and county management, organizational reviews, and strategic planning. Highly comparable niche focus and service portfolio.

Emerging players

• Polco: Polco is a civic engagement and data analytics platform used by local governments for community input and strategic planning support. Partially overlapping in municipal strategic planning workflows, but delivers via a SaaS platform rather than bespoke consulting.

Others

• ICMA (International City/County Management Association): ICMA is the professional association for local government managers and an ecosystem convener. It does not directly compete but influences the buyer community, conferences, and content channels that Mejorando relies on for thought-leadership reach.

Broad incumbents

• BerryDunn: BerryDunn is a national consulting and CPA firm with a dedicated State and Local Government practice offering HR and management consulting. Comparable service lines but operates as a multi-discipline incumbent.
• Baker Tilly (Government Services): Baker Tilly is a top-15 advisory firm with a substantial state and local government practice covering HR, succession planning, and organizational consulting. Competes for the same municipal engagements but as part of a much broader portfolio.
