The Suran Group works with highly skilled professionals with proven track records and strong attitudes about quality, customer service and collaborative/team based approaches. In a broad range of projects, we carefully link our clients to and work closely with the best expertise available.

The Northwest is home to some of the most creative, high integrity, and committed-to-quality consultants in the U.S. They come here, they stay here, because they want to live and work in that kind of environment. They typically have independent practices but closely align to other high quality firms. They may be small firms, but they are some of the best; many are sought out and highly respected nationally.

The Suran Group seeks out and is able to obtain the services of the best of these consultants for our clients – our clients don’t need to go out of the area to get the best. This insures consultants who understand the Northwest environment and culture and reduces the fee for the best quality because there are no costly out of state travel costs.

Here is a sampling of other consultants we refer to and work with the most. If you would like additional comments on these firms, please contact us.
