Run your business like a company ten times your size, without hiring one.
Business Performance Services gives growing companies and lean internal teams direct access to senior-level audit, controls, strategy, technology, and operations expertise, without the cost, timeline, or risk of a full-time hire.
No pressure. No sales pitch. Fifteen minutes to talk through what is actually going on.
You built the business. You should not have to run every part of it alone.
Compliance deadlines do not wait for you to have time. Audit requirements grow. Important processes may still run on spreadsheets and whoever remembers how it worked last time. A full-time audit, risk, technology, or operations leader is a significant investment, and the wrong hire can cost you time you cannot get back.
More Responsibility Than Capacity
Compliance, controls, technology, and operations keep growing. Your team and your available time do not grow with them.
Flying the Plane and Fixing It
You are the one who would know if something broke. That is a lot to carry alone, indefinitely.
Rigor Should Not Require Scale
A growing organization deserves the same discipline as one ten times larger, without ten times the overhead.
Two perspectives. One stronger business.

Jocie and Vernie bring complementary experience across audit, internal controls, risk, strategy, technology, and operations. Jocie helps organizations identify exposure, strengthen controls, and execute important audit work. Vernie helps leaders structure priorities, improve operations, and move complex initiatives from strategy through execution.
They founded Business Performance Services to give growing companies and lean internal teams direct access to experienced support without adding permanent headcount.
Jocie
Audit, Internal Controls & RiskJocie brings extensive experience identifying control weaknesses, assessing risk, and helping organizations address issues before they become more significant.
In a prior engagement, Jocie identified a risk that, left unaddressed, could have led to a serious safety incident. The finding was escalated and resolved before it caused harm.
Jocie identified that an employee was approving erroneous purchases. The finding stopped the ongoing losses and closed the control gap that allowed it to happen.
During an audit, Jocie found that a former employee had never been removed from the payroll system and was still receiving paychecks. Her work identified the overpayment and supported corrective action.
Vernie
Strategy, Technology & OperationsVernie brings extensive experience as a chief of staff and operations leader. She specializes in bringing structure to complexity and turning a leader's vision into an executable plan.
Vernie led an initiative that gave finance teams real-time visibility into working capital — what cash is coming in, what is going out, and what is tied up in unpaid invoices — supporting faster, better decisions.
Vernie has served as a right-hand chief of staff to senior executives, assessing where an organization stands today, setting a clear target for where it needs to go, and building the plan and milestones to track progress.
Vernie has led work to elevate customer delivery models, improving the customer experience in ways that supported revenue growth.
Together, these perspectives allow BPS to address both the controls that protect an organization and the strategies, systems, and operating structures that help it move forward.
