What Stratorial does

Stratorial is a French SARL (société à responsabilité limitée) consulting firm founded in 2003 and headquartered in Grenoble, with a secondary office in Paris. The firm specializes in financial management and fiscal strategy advisory for French local governments, operating exclusively in the public sector across communes, intercommunalities (EPCI), departmental and regional councils, and entities managing delegated public services (DSP) such as water, waste, and energy.

The company delivers its expertise through six complementary service poles: financial analysis and strategy, organization and audit, taxation and competence evolution, management mode selection, contractualization, and professional training. Underlying these advisory services is a proprietary technology stack including internal financial simulation tools for forecasting state allocations (dotations) and horizontal equalization mechanisms (péréquation), a cartography platform for graphical visualization, an internal financial analysis platform fed by comprehensive local government account data accumulated since 2008, and an economic impact calculator co-developed with G2A Consulting using input/output methodology. Stratorial also co-authored reference guides (e.g., with CSTB on energy performance contracts) and maintains a publication archive of over 100 expert analyses.

The business model is professional services revenue generated through project-based engagements and ongoing advisory contracts, with custom contact-based quoting rather than published pricing. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, targeting elected officials and administrative directors of French collectivités, supported by content marketing through expert publications, professional training programs with institutions such as INSET and CNFPT, industry association memberships (Cluster Montagne), and a strategic partnership with ORCOM International that serves as the firm's accounting-network distribution channel. FY2021 revenue was €1.495M with 10-19 employees, and the company is independently owned by its two gérants, Estelle Collet and Vincent Cocuelle.
