HMG's Accomplishments: 2009 in Review

HMG has been blessed this year by achieving over 100 percent organic growth in performance.  We have done this by improving performance of our clients, both public and private, and from healthcare to technology-based companies serving many industries.  This speaks volumes about the quality of resources HMG has been able to attract to address the complexities of business, especially health systems that are dealing with both regulatory and healthcare delivery challenges.  Our clients have relied on HMG to help improve their overall performance as evidenced by the engagements identified below. 

We have served community medical centers, large integrated health systems and complex university health systems.  In addition, we have advised Venture Capital and Private Equity companies on acquisition, divestiture and performance improvement for portfolio companies.  HMG has also advised both public and private technology companies from 3 million to Fortune 500 organizations on how to improve the marketability of their software and service solutions and/or performance of their companies.
