What RHB does

Strata Information Group (SIG), operating under the company code RHB, is a privately held higher-education technology consulting firm headquartered in San Diego, California. The company provides advisory, implementation, managed-services, and training engagements to colleges and universities across the United States, focused on three dominant higher-ed technology ecosystems: Slate (Technolutions), Ellucian (Banner, Colleague, Degree Works), and Salesforce for Higher Education. SIG does not develop proprietary software; instead, it operates as a certified services partner within these vendor ecosystems, with core-tier strategic relationships with each platform vendor.

Service offerings are organized into four solution lines: Strategic Advisory (enrollment strategy, institutional strategy and marketing, business process optimization, cloud/SaaS transformation readiness, organizational change management, AI strategy and governance); Enterprise Applications (CRM, ERP and SIS, data and analytics, experience portals, integrations, managed services, interim executive placements); Cybersecurity (compliance auditing, penetration testing, strategic consulting, virtual CISO); and AI and Data (AI strategy and governance, analytics, data readiness). Revenue is generated through professional services engagements and recurring managed-services contracts sold via a direct enterprise field-sales motion; pricing is quote-based with no public disclosure of rates or contract structures.

SIG positions its competitive differentiation on the dual-perspective operating experience of its consultants, who it states have worked both inside higher-education institutions making enrollment, advancement, and student success decisions and alongside the technical teams building the supporting systems. The firm markets through a multi-channel mix including organic social (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter), email newsletters, website content, industry events, and on-demand webinars. No financial, headcount, or ownership information is publicly disclosed in the source material.
