Stonehill

Stonehill is a strategy and innovation consultancy based in Tampa that works across sectors as varied as healthcare, real estate, and public higher education. Client engagements span from restaurant technology firms to state government, with named work for Restaurant Magic, Florida Virtual Campus, the State of Florida, and Bowie State University showing a practice comfortable moving between private-sector growth problems and public-sector operational ones.

The firm's service lines cover strategy and design thinking, process and customer experience redesign, organizational design, and change and project management, alongside a distinct focus on acquisition integration, post-merger integration, and carve-out and TSA advisory. Design thinking workshops appear as a recurring method for working through these problems with clients directly, and the firm also takes on technology, analytics, and AI engagements alongside more specialized emergency management consulting work.

Proof points from the notes show the range of what this looks like in practice: a multiple-year growth strategy built for Restaurant Magic, a series of popup innovation labs designed and implemented with Florida Virtual Campus, and the State of Florida's Enterprise Architecture completed in a three-month engagement. Bowie State University's work centered on addressing a decline in newly enrolling freshmen, pointing to enrollment and organizational challenges as another area the consultancy has taken on. Together these examples suggest a firm that moves fluidly between fast-moving private clients and slower-moving institutional ones, applying the same design-thinking and integration toolkit to both.
