ONESIME

What ONESIME does

ONESIME is a boutique strategy and transformation consulting firm headquartered in Caen, France (149 rue Basse, 14000 Caen), founded in 2005 and operating as a SARL (Société à Responsabilité Limitée, RCS Caen 483 929 006, APE 7022Z) with €500,000 of registered capital. The firm is led by founder-gérant Rodrick Carrasco and serves French SME and ETI business leaders — founders, owners, and CEOs typically turning over between a few million and several tens of millions of euros — who face strategic inflection points such as growth reorientation, ownership transition, digital and AI integration, or ESG/RSE compliance. The core service offering spans four engagement modalities articulated on the firm's website: Conseil Stratégique, Transformation (organisationnelle, digitale + IA, RSE), Accompagnement du Changement, and Business Développement; and four commercial modalities: Conseil (project advisory), Administrateur Indépendant (independent director mandates via NAI/API A), Operating Partner (PE fund portfolio support), and Dirigeant Entrepreneur / Holding Animatrice (transitional executive mandates and co-invested ownership roles). Notable past engagements include operating roles at Mont Blanc (full organisational restructuring ahead of PE sale), Interpack (LBO 2011–2018 with digitisation and profitable exit), and Laudescher (BI-MBO 2019–2024 yielding simultaneous B-Corp, Cradle to Cradle, EPV, and Entreprise à Mission certifications). Customer logos referenced include Laudescher, Coulidoor, Anfry, Courtin Génie Climatique, Interpack, West Avocats, VINCI Energies, and Tertu.

The firm operates without a proprietary technology platform, sales automation tools, or vendor allegiance, allowing fully agnostic recommendations; its own digital infrastructure is limited to an OVH-hosted website and an active LinkedIn presence. Notable intellectual capital includes a 5-pillar RSE transformation architecture developed from live execution at Laudescher, codified application of the codéveloppement method (certified by founders Champagne and Payette), and the CRISP-DM data-mining methodology applied within client engagements. The founder's qualifications combine EPFL engineering training, an INSEAD Executive MBA, INSEAD certifications in digital disruption (2017) and AI enterprise transformation (2025), and codéveloppement accreditation — credentials that anchor the firm's claims to practitioner-grade, not theoretical, transformation delivery.

The business model is professional-services project work with bespoke per-engagement pricing and no published fee schedule. Engagement formats range from 1-day interventions to mission flash (1–2 weeks), AMOA, program direction, embedded/multi-year executive mandates, and retainer arrangements; multi-year contracts are common for governance and operating roles. Go-to-market is sales-led and event-driven but entirely referral-based, with no paid acquisition, anchored in the founder's active participation in elite networks — APM (membership since 2000; founder and animator of Caen Pegasus since 2018; ex-animator of Manche 2007–2019), N'Way (decision committee), NAI (independent administrator, joined May 2024), APIA, plus EPFL and INSEAD alumni networks — and amplified through LinkedIn thought leadership, learning expeditions (CES Las Vegas 2018/2019, Google/LinkedIn Paris 2025), client testimonials, and case studies. Holding animatrice operations (Interpack 2011–2018; Laudescher 2019–2024) provide an additional revenue and equity upside stream alongside fee-for-service consulting, with Rodrick historically co-investing alongside family offices or historical owners via dedicated vehicles such as Woodtailor.

Core offering

ONESIME is a boutique strategy and transformation consulting firm that advises business leaders on corporate strategy, organizational transformation, digital and AI transformation, RSE/ESG transformation, governance reinforcement, and business development. The firm operates under four intervention modalities: strategic advisory (Conseil), independent board membership (Administrateur Indépendant), operating partner support for PE funds, and entrepreneur-director mandates including transitional leadership and holding animatrice roles with active equity stakes.

Product overview

ONESIME is a strategy and transformation consulting firm founded by Rodrick Carrasco, offering integrated professional services rather than a software product. The core offering combines strategic consulting with operational implementation support across four main engagement modalities: strategic advisory (Conseil), governance services (Administrateur Indépendant, Operating Partner), entrepreneurial leadership (Dirigeant Entrepreneur, Holding Animatrice), and transformation execution (organizational, digital/RSE, and change management). The portfolio is unified by Rodrick's unique dual perspective as both an experienced consultant (15+ years) and former company director (17 years as mandataire social). Services are offered as standalone engagements or combined based on client needs.
