WHO
Lawrence Solutions LLC is a small, privately-owned Fairfax, Virginia-based consulting company. It was founded by Mitch Lawrence in 2017 to advance the US Government and Industry security profession through better business practices in the domain of the classified world.
Mitch brings over 40 years of involvement in the U.S. Intelligence and other Executive Branch agencies in creating the company and has lived or worked on five continents while employed or contracted by those U.S. agencies. He started out as an Intelligence Community agency special agent, left the government for industry after ten years, and through opportunities with small, medium and large companies, rose to become a member
of the corporate suite (C-suite) with several of those firms. This is where his business acumen was shaped and honed.
His multidimensional experience, comprehensive background and deep-rooted government and industry relationships developed over the years in the array of security-based missions are what differentiates him and makes him highly sought. But, it was tying business practices to the classified responsibilities inherent to protecting U.S. Government and Industry people, information and facilities that allowed him the opportunity to make a difference–and form Lawrence Solutions LLC.
WHAT
Lawrence Solutions LLC objective is to enable YOU–whether part, partner or overseer of security–to build a better security team that can best fit within the overall organization. This is achieved through proven business practices that raise the bar for security and cascades that success to the rest of your customers, agency or company.
Highlights of the difference Lawrence Solutions LLC can provide YOU include initiating security best-practices, developing and applying security metrics, conforming security with mission/operational activities, connecting you
with your internal AND external customers, justifying and planning funding and staffing, maximizing a return on your organization’s investment in security, marketing security’s perception management, creating shared security services, prioritizing security customer service skills, leading proposal and merger/acquisition security preparation, pursuing a “pathway to yes”, and, of course, attaining a seat at the leadership table. The bottom line is to teach, instruct and educate YOUR work force on using business practices to advance your security mission.
WHY
Why should you partner with Lawrence Solutions LLC? It’s really simple… If you are a security professional, ask yourself, “Do I desire that my security effort have equal footing with organizational peers and appropriately valued by leadership?”, and, the answer is, “Yes”, then Lawrence Solutions LLC can help you achieve those goals…and “a seat at the table”.
If the security effort reports to you organizationally, do you desire a customer
service-oriented and risk-managed security team that is responsive to your mission or business?, communicates with you in your language and not security-ese?, takes on challenges instead of saying “no” first?, gives you creative answers to overcome problems?, and works well with your other mission, customer and support organizations?, then Lawrence Solutions LLC can help you achieve such outcomes.
