Vendor Management
Vendor inventory, selection, onboarding, performance, escalations, renewals, consolidation, and accountability.
OC Operational Consulting & Vendor Management
Bring accountability to the vendors and processes that keep your organization running.
Our Operational Consulting practice provides operational reviews, vendor management, and project coordination across construction, facilities, healthcare operations, procurement, technology, and other critical services.
Operational visibility
Every vendor may be responsible for a piece. Someone still has to manage the result.
This practice creates a central management layer across vendors, internal teams, projects, contracts, handoffs, and operating processes. The objective is not to become every vendor. It is to make sure the right vendors are doing the right work, at the right cost, with clear accountability.
Operational Consulting Services
Operational review and vendor oversight.
Operational Reviews
Evaluation of workflows, ownership, documentation, handoffs, bottlenecks, and organizational dependencies.
Operational Efficiency
Process redesign, SOP development, KPI creation, automation opportunities, and standardization.
Project & Vendor Coordination
Cross-functional coordination for openings, renovations, relocations, expansions, transitions, and major initiatives.
Facilities & Construction Oversight
Dependency tracking and executive visibility across contractors, architects, engineers, facilities providers, and specialized trades.
Healthcare Operations Support
Coordination across the operational vendors and services required to open, maintain, and scale healthcare facilities.
Healthcare and facilities
Manage the dependencies that fall between departments.
Healthcare environments rely on a wide range of specialized providers, many of whom have no responsibility for coordinating with one another.
- General contractors and trades
- Architects and engineers
- Facilities and maintenance
- Medical equipment providers
- Low-voltage and physical security
- Telecom and connectivity
- Environmental and waste services
- Technology and software vendors
J Squared coordinates and governs the work of specialized providers. It does not represent itself as a licensed contractor, engineer, architect, attorney, or clinical provider.

The Operational Consulting Question
“Are our operations efficient, and are our vendors accountable for the outcomes we expect?”
