Ironwood Strategic Solutions

We provide consulting and facilitation services for specific facets of the Fire/EMS industry. In partnership with your agency, we create personalized solutions that generate results. Our team is made up of experienced practitioners who understand that a “one size fits all” approach does not have a place in today’s dynamic emergency service environment. We do, however, believe in getting up to speed on your challenges quickly, understanding the nuances of your agency’s culture, and working closely with your stakeholders to develop solutions that work. We always aim to exceed your expectations. We do that by delivering value and ensuring the benefits reaped from each project are realized time and again as your agency pushes forward.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic has made in-person interactions challenging, Ironwood Strategic Solutions is available to engage a virtual approach for all the services we offer.


I want to share my incredible experience in using Ironwood Strategic Solutions for our last strategic planning process. As firefighters, we are doers and we want to just dig-in and do stuff. Ironwood was able to tap into that natural gift of firefighters while forcing us to pause and look at the big picture. In a few short months, our team was able to take external and internal input and develop a clear road map for Rincon Valley. Furthermore, it allowed our organization to all work in the same direction. Gary and his team really brought us to the next level.
