Johnson Consulting Services

What Johnson Consulting Services does

Johnson Consulting Services, LLC (DBA: JCS) is a privately held, founder-operated management and quality-improvement consulting firm founded in 1986 and headquartered in the Cincinnati, Ohio metropolitan area. The firm is led by President and Senior Consultant Bruce W. Johnson, who personally holds PMP, Six Sigma Black Belt (CSSBB), CPHQ (retired), and multiple ASQ quality credentials, and who has served as an examiner for the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award and as a judge for ASQ International Team Excellence. JCS does not sell software; it sells professional services delivered through three practice areas — Organizational Management Consulting (strategic planning, operations assessments, project management, technology procurement), Quality Improvement Consulting (QMS design and auditing, TQM, CQI, balanced scorecards, training), and Personal Improvement Coaching (individual life-transition coaching) — and through seminars such as ASQ certification prep courses.

The firm serves federal, state, and local government agencies (e.g., CT Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, county recorder's offices), healthcare providers and systems (e.g., University Hospital), nonprofit and social-service agencies, and for-profit organizations, with documented engagements spanning the continental U.S., Hawaii, Montreal, Paris, and Barcelona. Revenue mechanics are project-based and quote-driven; the contact form on the website captures prospect interest areas (strategic planning, operations analysis, quality improvement, personal coaching, seminars) and timeline (immediate, 3–6 months, 9–12 months), and pricing is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise/field-sales-style — direct consultative selling by the founder, supplemented by content marketing (a 2024 blog on Quality Improvement Trends), public Master Classes (e.g., North Vernon MainStreet), and ASQ community positioning. There are no external investors, no parent company, no disclosed funding, and headcount is reported at 1–10 employees.
