Frequently Asked Questions About Fractional or Part-Time COOs

  • What is a Fractional COO?

    A Fractional Chief Operating Officer (COO) is an experienced leader who provides operational leadership to a company on a part-time or contractual basis. This allows businesses to access high-level expertise without the commitment and cost of full-time COOs.

  • How does a fractional or part-time COO differ from a full-time COO?

    A Fractional COO offers the same strategic and operational support as a full-time COO but on a flexible schedule tailored to your company's needs. This arrangement is cost-effective and ideal for businesses that don't require a full-time COO.

  • What types of businesses typically benefit from hiring a Fractional COO?

    Small to medium-sized businesses, startups, and rapidly growing companies often benefit from a Fractional or part-time COO. They provide the necessary expertise to scale operations, improve processes, and navigate periods of transition without the overhead of a full-time Chief Operating Officer executive salary.

  • Does a Fractional COO bring an operational maturity model to the table?

    Yes, our Fractional COOs will come to your organization with our proven Process Maturity framework. This framework will be what they leverage to help mature and advance your most critical processes. 

  • What does a Fractional COO provide?

    Most frequently we offer .25 and .5 FTE models for a Fractional or part-time COO, however we are flexible to each business that we work with. 

  • Is a Fractional COO the same as a consultant?

    While both offer expert advice, a Fractional COO takes on an operational role within your company, executing strategies and managing teams, whereas a consultant typically provides recommendations without direct implementation.

  • What happens if we decide to hire a full-time COO later on?

    If you choose to hire a full-time COO, the Fractional COO can assist with the transition, ensuring a smooth handover of responsibilities and continuity in operations.

  • Do you accept clients all over the U.S.?

    Yes, we will work with clients anywhere in the United States. 

  • Do you perform your work remotely?

    All of our work is able to be performed in a remote environment. Working remote allows us to leverage talent from all over the country. At a client's request we will travel to be on site, but a majority of all work will be performed remotely.

  • How do we get started with a Fractional COO?

    Begin by scheduling a meeting with us to discuss your business challenges and goals. We'll assess your needs and propose a tailored Chief Operating Officer plan outlining the scope of work and engagement terms.

  • How quickly can the Fractional COO start working with us?

    Usually our process begins with a discovery call. After a discovery call we will craft a proposal that fits your business. If you accept the proposal we move onto a contract. All of this can be completed in as a little as a week, but it usually takes 2-3 weeks. However, we can begin immediately if there is urgency. 

  • How does pricing and billing work for Fractional COO services?

    Fees are usually structured as a fixed monthly cost. These are invoiced monthly to your organization. Prices vary based on the level of engagement, size, and complexity of your organization.
