Cost Analysis

Successful projects begin with a research discovery phase to properly orient our analysts. From there, we utilize primary data gathered either by our team or by the client and analyze it extensively. Once clients confirm the direction of the project at a midpoint deliverable, NCG will typically make comprehensive strategic recommendations at the end of the engagement. All project materials are delivered and become the client's property.

While these are our main areas of interest and expertise, we are always enthusiastic about new opportunities in different areas. Refer to our work portfolio below to learn more, and please feel free to contact us with any questions.

Testimonials

Nexecon's team of organized and driven students pinpointed growth opportunities that are already paying dividends. They helped us identify what is important to our customers, and drive decision making toward such. I would recommend them to any organization, and I hope they join our team one day.

I used Nexecon Consulting Group at PHASIQ to do a competitive pricing analysis. The students assigned to the project did an excellent job in outlining the pricing mechanism within the industry. This analysis will be extremely helpful in our product launch.

We engaged with Nexecon on a project to better understand a new market segment we were considering entering. You would never think this is a student-run company. From the outset, Nexecon managed communications and their deliverables in a way that would put seasoned consulting companies in the shade. Their team was well-balanced in terms of experience, and the entire engagement was very open and professional. We were so confident in the work that the final deliverable was presented by the Nexecon team to our MD & CEO and other senior executives.

Nexecon’s team provided an excellent review of our business and the local food environment. Their team completed market research we had been unable to undertake due to the demands of day to day operations. The Nexecon project advanced our strategic thinking about future pathways for Argus.

Ford has partnered with Nexecon on three separate projects, all of which have had fantastic results. We find that Nexecon has an eye toward solving complex problems while also equipping clients with tools to use to address those problems going forward. We definitely plan to continue partnering with the Nexecon team.

Nexecon was hired in January 2016 to help the Detroit Crime Commission market and strategize a comprehensive fundraising and marketing plan for now and in the future. Nexecon students were professional, knowledgeable and understood my company’s needs immediately. I can’t wait to use Nexecon again!

We had a great experience with Nexecon. Their student consultants were consummate professionals, offering unique insights and a willingness to 'do the work'. I would recommend them to any business executive who may be looking for up-and-coming minds to offer fresh perspectives and an enthusiastic attitude.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do projects take place?

Nexecon has two guaranteed project cycles each year. Projects typically begin in late September during the Fall semester, and in late January during the Winter semester. Based on member availability, Nexecon may also offer a limited number of Summer projects that begin in late May. Project engagements typically last 12 weeks, but this timeline can vary slightly based on each project's unique requirements.

How do I become a client?

Please contact our Chief Procurement Officer, Sam Ungerleider, at samgu@umich.edu with information about your company and the business problem(s) it faces. From there, we will work with you to develop a scope proposal for the project, and to determine how our organization will deliver the desired result. If you would like to be considered for a project for the Fall Semester, you must contact us prior to August 30th. For the Winter semester, you must contact us prior to December 31st.

How will confidential client information be handled?

We take client privacy very seriously. Prior to each project, all team members are required to sign a NDA with their client. All sensitive information released to our teams is carefully tracked, and is only released to members who require access to it. Digital information is safely erased, and physical information is destroyed after each project's completion.

How are the projects structured?

Project teams consist of one project manager, three to five business analysts, and one senior project advisor. Typically, each project has a midpoint presentation where the progress of the project is communicated to the client, and the client has the opportunity to make adjustments to the project scope. All work is delivered in a final presentation at the end of the semester.

Who will I be in contact with?

The Chief Procurement Officer is the primary point of contact for the client sourcing and scoping phase. Once the project kicks off, the project manager serves as the primary point of contact via email and weekly client calls.
