About Our Customer

Stanley Consultants provides engineering, environmental and construction services worldwide. Its growing network of U.S. and global offices serves a wide variety of client types including energy, land development, industrial, institutional, government, commercial and utility clients. Founded in 1913, Stanley Consultants has worked in all 50 states and in 98 countries. The firm is  owned entirely by its employees, who are referred to as members.

Situation

Even though Stanley Consultants’ projects are managed through its local offices, the growing scope of its work calls for extensive collaboration and coordination between teams in different offices -- as well as with clients, contractors and sub-contractors. Stanley Consultants’ engineering and management work also relies heavily on hundreds of highly specialized applications, and a full array of communications tools ranging from conferencing to document sharing. The challenge for the IT organization is to assure that the right technologies are always delivered when and where needed to allow the firm to operate as single, highly efficient team in support of its clients.

Solution

Stanley Consultants opted to run its U.S. locations-- permanent offices as well as some local job sites-- over a network-based virtual private network that allows the company to support multiple applications while making optimum use of bandwidth and networking capacity. The MPLS-based VPN allows the company to run high-demand services such as voice and video conferencing without compromising service to other applications.

Managing Hundreds of Projects, Thousands of Engineers

At any given time, Stanley Consultants may be at work on hundreds of projects across the U.S. and worldwide. The firm’s engineers, architects, planners and construction services managers could be involved in upgrading a coal-fired power plant, doing structural engineering for a major highway bridge, designing and building a wastewater treatment plant, or even performing the planning for a residential housing development.

With a history of nearly 100 years, the Iowa-based company takes pride in the fact that much of its work comes from clients who it has done business with before. Indeed, Stanley Consultants has relationships that extend back decades. While a mid-sized firm by industry standards, the company has an outsized reputation for experience and reliability in its core disciplines which proves helpful in a business where virtually every project is vigorously pursued by competing firms.

Stanley Consultants organizes its practice along market lines, such as energy, federal government, land development, transportation, water resources and water/wastewater. This enables it to focus on the particular relationships and expertise needed to land projects.  But these teams are ‘virtual’ in the sense that they may be spread across any number of Stanley Consultants’ nearly 20 U.S. offices.

“Our power generation project teams, for example, have some members in Denver and some in Muscatine, as well as other locations,” said Senior Network Analyst Kevin Madsen, “while our federal project teams may include members in locations such as Muscatine, Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and West Palm Beach.  Add to that all the temporary project offices that we set up and you can say that Stanley Consultants literally operates all over the map.

“Most of what we do in IT is focused on helping those teams and offices collaborate effectively, and making sure we deliver the tools and technologies needed to support clients -- wherever they happen to be. That’s where our MPLS-based VPN comes in. It supports anything from conventional office systems to document sharing, project management, CAD/CAM, dozens of highly specialized systems and video conferencing as well as enterprise tools such as Internet, intranet, email and HR.”

Creating a Better Platform

About two years ago, Madsen and Stanley Consultants’ IT team began to notice that the existing network architecture wasn’t up to the task of supporting the company’s voracious need for inter-office communication. The company had been using a private VPN that ran over the public Internet which had worked admirably for years.  “We realized, however, that we needed a more sophisticated way to manage and prioritize our bandwidth,” said Madsen.  “At that time we had just a single bandwidth queue. Someone would launch a video conference or initiate a huge file transfer and other traffic would be stacked up behind it. There was no way to prioritize.”

Users began to notice that video conferencing was not always predictable, and that there were occasional glitches in other applications. Madsen was also trying to add voice to the IP network, but the bandwidth issues made it difficult.

“We began to review possible solutions with the AT&T team,” said Madsen, “and quickly realized that a network-based VPN would address the immediate bandwidth issues, and create an environment that would open up other possibilities for the company later on.”

The new VPN allows Madsen and his team to set priorities and rules for the various types of traffic across the network, assuring that very sensitive applications take precedence over file transfers and other traffic that wouldn’t be affected by tiny delays in transmission. With the new network in place, Madsen is able to keep collaboration streamlined and friction-free across the organization.

More Efficient Voice and Video

Being able to prioritize and manage bandwidth made it possible for Stanley Consultants to complete the transition from conventional voice to a fully IP-based platform. The company upgraded to IP PBXs in all U.S. locations -- allowing voice traffic between them to flow over the MPLS-based network. Madsen is able to assign voice traffic with an appropriate priority to avoid compromising call quality.

In addition to offering cost advantages, Madsen realized the VoIP solution could exert a subtle psychological effect. “With four-digit dialing it feels more like you are making a local, in-company call rather than long-distance. There is no hesitation to pick up the phone and talk, as needed, even if it is cross-country.”

The network-based VPN also makes inter-office video conferencing much more reliable. Since moving to the new network, end-users at Stanley Consultants are experiencing fewer problems such as dropped frames and audio losses. 

“Overall,” said Madsen, “the move was completely transparent to our members. They simply notice that their video doesn’t break as often. We get far fewer calls saying ‘I’m trying to do something and it’s not working.’ We have eliminated a lot of help desk issues.”

Building Competitive Advantage

For Stanley Consultants’ U.S. offices, the IT organization provides a number of core applications from the Muscatine office -- creating a great deal of traffic back to headquarters for everyday tasks. Other applications and capabilities, ranging from remote plotting and printing devices, specialized engineering applications and systems such as CAD/CAM, may actually run out of local offices where they are most used. However, the ability for other offices to access resources such as drawings and documents is easily supported by the network-based VPN. 

To make sure the capabilities keep pace with the needs of the field -- and that they can be provided efficiently -- Madsen and Stanley Consultants’  IT team have a productive back-and-forth relationship with the end-users. “Sometimes they approach us and say ‘If we could do x and y, it would help us save time.’  Or ‘our competitors are doing a, b and c. Can we do that?’ Then we look at ways to deliver what they are requesting. On the other hand, our team is free to go out to the field and offer suggestions for improving performance, saving money or finding a better solution.”

One of Stanley Consultants’ strengths in the marketplace is being able to deploy and engage quickly once a contract is signed, or when a need arises. So when the electrical plant at a major client was taken out of commission by floods, Stanley Consultants had a construction trailer, PCs, network and engineers on site within days to help get the plant back online.

“Once a contract is signed we like to mobilize rapidly and get a site office up and working right away, with phones and everything else,” said Madsen. “We’re working on ways to get that all done efficiently and fast. I think our network capability will give us some opportunities there.”

The Next Challenges

Madsen sees ever-increasing bandwidth requirements on the horizon. “We now have a way to manage the bandwidth for our various applications, but those requirements will continue to grow. Where a typical file might have been 200 megabytes a year ago, it could easily be 200 gigabytes in the near future. We are relying on more and more intensive data sets such as aerial images, 3D laser-generated models of sites and other data that demand a great deal of bandwidth to store and move around. I think our network architecture provides the best environment for accommodating the bandwidth requirements.”

There is a need for Stanley Consultants to deliver robust networking for applications and collaboration at job sites, whatever the application. It’s also clear that Stanley Consultants’ members need to be very mobile in support of clients, while still having access to the same tools, technologies and communications they have when in the office -- even if they’re out in the middle of nowhere.

“We’ve only just scratched the surface of what networking can do in our business,” said Madsen. “We’re looking forward to working with AT&T to create even better ways to accomplish what we need to do as a company.”

Voice of the Customer

“Most of what we do in IT is focused on helping those teams and offices collaborate effectively, and making sure we deliver the tools and technologies they need to support clients -- wherever they happen to be.”

The new online auction site http://www.5050auctions.com turns the penny auction world on its head. Although penny auctions were introduced in the United States through sites like Swoopo and Bidstick, 5050auctions.com is the first online auction site to give true value to the consumer. The only internet auction site where Winners always get 50% of their bids back and everything sells for 50 cents or less, 5050auctions.com makes bidding at auction a truly winning proposition!

The name 5050auctions actually came after the concept for 5050. The need was for an affordable fun way to win high end, brand name items at an auction site other than Ebay. While sites like Swoopo and Bidstick made winning a macbook, or an ipod at auction fun again, many times it was simply unaffordable. Unlike regular auction websites the duration of the auction is dictated by the users. There are no reserves. To win the user must place the final bid. With these internet auction sites not only do you have to pay a premium for any bid you use, but then you have to pay the winning bid price. Many times the total between the two would turn a great deal, into a bust.... (Continue reading)

My first story today is from Washington state reader S.A.  In a new edition of The Black Swan, author Nassim Nicholas Taleb warns against depending “on financial assets as a repository of value”.  No!!!  Really!!!  Who would have thought that, dear reader.  The man has a keen grasp of the obvious.  The story is posted over at businessweek.com… and the headline reads “Taleb: Government Deficits Could Be the Next ‘Black Swan’“… and the link is here.

The next story is courtesy of reader ‘David’.  The story, posted over atfoxbusiness.com, starts out like this… “So much for transparency.  Under a little-noticed provision of the recently passed financial-reform legislation, the Securities and Exchange Commission no longer has to comply with virtually all requests for information releases from the public, including those filed under the Freedom of Information Act.  The headline reads “SEC Says New Financial Regulation Law Exempts it From Public Disclosure“.  Welcome to the U.S.S.A… Komrade!  The link to the video… and the article… is here.  It’s worth the listen… and the read.

Here’s a story [courtesy of reader Roy Stephens] about China that was posted over at the German website spiegel.de yesterday.  I wasn’t seriously considering running with this piece, but changed my mind long before I got through reading this 2-page essay.  I was impressed by the candor of the article… and I’m sure you will be as well, dear reader.  The headline reads “The Dragon’s Embrace: China’s Soft Power Is a Threat to the West“… and the link is here.

My next story is another offering from reader Roy Stephens… and is your first [and only] must read of the day.  It’s an Ambrose Evans-Pritchard piece that was filed very early this morning in London.  It appears that European banks have amassed €30 trillion in liabilities and face a serious funding threat over the next two years as authorities withdraw emergency support, according to a new report by Standard & Poor’s.  The headline reads “Europe’s €30 trillion headache“… and the link is here.

Here’s an interest chart that was sent to me yesterday.  It was imbedded in a story that I decided [for length reasons] not to post in this column.  But the chart is worth looking at… as it’s an eye-opener.  Pay particular attention to the GDPs of China and the U.S.A. for the last 500 years.  Amazing, isn’t it?

Lastly today is a radio interview with Goldmoney founder and GATA consultant James Turk. It’s about the death of government currencies, with emphasis on the experience of Weimar Germany. The interview is posted atradio.goldseek.com… and is about 20 minutes long and the link is here.

The US Constitution - Article 1 Section 10 – No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.

Yesterday was just another day off the calendar, as the bullion banks picked away at the gold and silver prices.  Silver’s 200-day moving average is thoroughly broken to the downside… and we’re inching ever closer to the 200-day moving average in gold.  Every ’slice of the salami’ [as Ted Butler calls it] strengthens the Commitment of Traders report even further… and here’s hoping that all of Tuesday’s crucifixion will be in it when the report becomes available tomorrow afternoon.  Wednesday’s activity won’t show up until the following Friday.

Here’s the 6-month gold graph that shows how JPMorgan et al are doing relative to the 200-day moving average.

Name: Augusto Sanabria
Occupation: President/CEO, Hispanic Business Initiative Fund, HBIF
Age: 30
Family: Lives with wife, Maria, and children, Emma, 1, and Juan Pablo, 8 months.
Place of residence: Windermere, Fl
Origin: Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina; raised in San Salvador, El Salvador; living in Orlando for 11 years.

As president of the Hispanic Business Initiative Fund, Augusto Sanabria manages a staff of ten people who work with Spanish-speaking entrepreneurs trying to start or grow their businesses. The nonprofit receives almost half of its $1 million in funding from government sources, as the State of Florida, the City of Orlando, Orange County and Osceola County join to supplement corporate donations and fundraising efforts. Pinellas and Hillsborough counties also help to support the group’s operation in the Tampa area.

Sanabria, a former tennis player with an athletic scholarship to the University of Central Florida holds a masters degree in business administration. He was named the group’s president and CEO in September of 2009 after an exhaustive search that attracted about 100 candidates. He spoke recently to Sentinel staff writer Víctor Manuel Ramos.

Why did you come to Orlando?

I played tennis my whole life, so when I graduated high school I started looking for colleges and universities here that would have a good athletic program. I had a friend who was at UCF and I came here and I fell in love with it. I had an athletic scholarship with them at UCF. I have been playing tennis since I was 4 years old… We won our first conference championship in my senior year at UCF, so, yeah, I had a good time.

What is the Hispanic Business Initiative Fund?

The HBIF is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that provides technical assistance and training to Hispanic entrepreneurs who want to establish a business in Florida… It started in Tampa in 1991. We brought the model in 1995 to Orlando and merged both organizations under Hispanic Business Initiative Fund of Florida Inc. Primarily, we offer three areas of service: seminars and workshops throughout the year, on a diverse number of topics from how to certify your business as a minority to how to write a business plan and how to advertise your company through the Internet. We offer about 35 to 40 workshops a year between Orlando and Tampa. In addition to the workshops we also offer an orientation on how to start a business and we offer that twice a week in the Central Florida area, once in Kissimmee and once in downtown Orlando. In addition to that, we offer one-on-one technical assistance to people starting or wanting to start a business. … All of these services are bilingual. The third option is technical assistance scholarships, for say someone who needs legal advice, where we subcontract with professional providers to provide that assistance to the client. We sometimes subcontract a consultant to help a business owner write a business plan and we help them reach out to the banks to request a loan. In essence we create a team for our clients.

Aren’t your workshops and services limited to Spanish-language speakers?

Yes. There’s a reason behind that. We are one of 12 business providers at the Disney Entrepreneur Center and there are other organizations that already offer seminars in English and, since we don’t want to be duplicating services, we provide our workshops in Spanish. If someone comes to our office who is more comfortable in English we would most likely refer them to one of those other organizations and that’s the beauty of the Disney Entrepreneur Center, that you have 12 community organizations and community partners that are sharing information and resources to develop entrepreneurship in the Orlando area.

Isn’t the inability to speak English one of the main obstacles for Hispanic entrepreneurs?

Yes, and that’s why we are here. One of the reasons HBIF is so important is that there is a segment of our Hispanic population — in the I-4 corridor, there’s over a million Hispanics; in Central Florida we have over 500,000 Hispanics — [that] is a relatively new Hispanic population, so most of the Hispanics in Central Florida are first-generation Hispanics and what that means is that while the majority of them do speak English, there are folks who may have been entrepreneurs in Venezuela, Colombia or Mexico and they want to start a business, but even though they speak some English they feel more comfortable in Spanish. One of the things we tell them is that if you want to succeed in the U.S. you have to learn English. We want to make sure they are doing things right and if the services are available in Spanish, why not?

Say I have an idea for a business: I want to start this publication called the Orlando Sentinel and I think there’s a market for it. What can you do for me?

Our business orientation is a good place to start. We teach people the basics of accounting, how much is it going to cost to publish, how big of a space you are going to need to have, what’s the startup cost of a company and how much is it going to cost you to keep it running. We typically recommend people to have six months of expenses to keep the company running. Often times the biggest mistake people make is they start the company with less cash they will actually need and as soon as they open their doors they run out of cash flow… If all of those things are in a good place, if you have the resources and you have part of the capital, and you have experience, we might consider providing you a scholarship so you can meet with an attorney and establish a legal structure, meet with a marketing consultant and develop a plan and you can go from there. We have clients that keep coming back to us for years because our services don’t expire. And that is great because a client that has been established for 15 or 20 years can come back and revise their business plan and I would work with them… You have to look at the ABCs of a business: do you have the capital? Do you have the experience? Do you know how to manage a business?

What are the most popular business proposals you see and what are the main challenges faced by the business owners who come to your workshops?

I wouldn’t be able to tell you specifically what’s the most popular area… We see trends from time to time. Some years we see a lot of day care [providers], sometimes we see a lot of food-related business, anything from a hot dog cart to a multimillion dollar restaurant… Right now we are seeing a lot of professionals, CPAs, attorneys… In the Hispanic business community we love to cook, so restaurants are a very common concept and of course the challenge they are facing right now is, first of all, access to capital. If you are a restaurant owner and you go to a bank they will probably show you the way out. It’s probably one of the riskiest businesses out there… Some of the other challenges are not only access to capital, but also credit. If I have a restaurant I am probably buying my food supplies with a credit card, because I would cook the food and sell it and I would have 30 days to pay back. A lot of banks have cut their credit lines in half and now you are stuck with going to Target to get the chicken and you have to pay more… A lot of it has to do with financial situations, credit and access to capital, and consumers in general are looking at ways in which they can cut their spending, so it makes it that much more competitive for a restaurant owner, especially a small business, to stay alive… Another big area for us is construction and we have a very successful contractor’s academy that we put together twice a year in Orlando, and once a year in Tampa, and because of that we get a lot of construction companies, but they are dealing with a lot of problems right now… They were doing very, very well two or three years ago, but unfortunately they did not do well managing their budgets and leaving cash for these difficult times… One of the biggest problems they have is cash flow… Let’s say they get a contract with Orange County and you have to build: you start working today, but you can’t get paid until 45 or 60 days [later] and you have to pay your workers weekly and you have to purchase materials you are using and you have to assimilate or absorb those 30 to 45 days that you are out of cash. And if your credit line has been cut in half you don’t have the ability to pay your subcontractors… We have many clients who have the contracts, that’s not the problem, but they can’t subsidize 45 labors or material because they don’t have the cash flow.

Is there anything you can do to help clients with financing?

We don’t have a loan program, so we are limited to what banking institutions can do for them. If you come to HBIF we could identify 15 to 20 financial institutions and perhaps one of them could help you out. We know what deals are attractive to them and we can match them to your project. We have a partnership with Accion USA, a microlender organization, and they offer loans of up to $50,000 and they are a bit more lenient than banks.

Have you been a business owner? What led to your current position?

The first thing I would say is I was raised in an entrepreneurial family. My dad had a business for 12 or 25 years, my mom and my sister have a restaurant, and they have owned it for about 10 years. I used to help them. When I was in college I did open my own business as well. I was buying products here in the state and distributing them in Central America. If you ask me what I want to be doing in ten years, it is to actually own my own business… For me this organization was a great match because I have been able to learn what it takes to start and own my own business and learn about different businesses. At HBIF you are analyzing different businesses, different types of industries and different backgrounds and I have expanded my knowledge while being able to do something good for the community. The look in a client’s place when they get approved for a loan or a scholarship, that for me is priceless. This is where my passion is and anyone who talks to me can notice that very quickly.

Tell me of a success story. What entrepreneur of business has HBIF helped recently that would showcase the importance of your group?

We have Rinse Cleaners, an environmentally-friendly dry cleaner. They came from Venezuela 15 to 20 years ago and they started in the dry cleaning business but didn’t have the money to buy one, so they would pick up your clothes from your home or your business and take it to a dry cleaner and bring it back to you. About two years into their business they came to HBIF and we started working with them. We started trying to grow their business, their delivery service and doing a bit more marketing so they could have enough clientele so we could justify getting their own dry cleaning place, rather than subcontracting. After a while we thought it was a good time to make the investment. They purchased a location and the equipment and we helped them get a loan and it was a $1 million project. It is top of the line technology here in Florida and it is the first “wet cleaner” in the Central Florida area. They were able to invest some more and have an environmentally-friendly and green company. They started operations in 2008, which was a bit unfortunate because that’s when the economy tanked, but they have been able to survive and they are located in [east Orange County].

So you’ve told me you are from Argentina and are in the process of becoming a U.S. citizen: Which team would you root for in a soccer World Cup match between the U.S. and Argentina?

That’s a tough one. I have been here for ten years and I call the U.S. home. Let’s say I would pick the Orlando Magic, how about that?
