Methodology
All vendor ratings and comparisons are derived from publicly observable evidence. We use vendor-published service descriptions, methodology documentation, case studies, client testimonials, and pricing disclosures where available. Where information is not publicly disclosed, we note that explicitly.
Harvey ball ratings reflect relative capability within sales execution and process discipline specifically, not overall firm quality or breadth of consulting services. A vendor rated with a partial fill is not a bad firm — they may simply not specialize in PE portfolio company sales execution as a named service.
