Business Planning
and Development

Effective business planning provides the structure and evidence needed to move opportunities forward. KEH Consulting supports organizations in developing business plans that are realistic, strategic, and ready for implementation.

We begin by clarifying the opportunity or challenge: goals, partners, community priorities, regulatory requirements, and financial considerations. Our analysis may include market and feasibility assessments, risk analysis, capacity reviews, and financial modeling.

We then develop business plans that outline the value proposition, operational model, governance structure, financial projections, risk mitigation, and phased implementation steps.

Each plan is tailored to your context.

For Indigenous governments and economic development corporations, we integrate cultural values, community engagement, legal frameworks, and stewardship responsibilities into business planning. Our goal is to support opportunities that build prosperity while aligning with long-term Nation objectives.

Business development support can also include partnership strategy, investment readiness, communication materials, and alignment with grant or financing applications.

What They Say…

Working with Katie and Maddy at KEH Consulting is a treat. Their level of commitment to getting the details right in every document and in every meeting is remarkable. Knowing we can trust the documents and the background work facilitates the board's ability to make confident, bold decisions. I highly recommend KEH Consulting to any organization looking to elevate the quality of their strategic decision-making and execution.

During the tenure of Katie Hooper as Executive Director and Maddy Coxford as Director of Operations, Esquimalt Nation experienced unprecedented growth in governance, infrastructure, and economic development. Their strategic leadership and financial expertise secured multimillion-dollar grants, enabling the construction of a new Health Centre, seven new townhouses, and the successful application for an additional 52-unit apartment building to address critical housing needs.
