^{International Consulting Services (ICS) is a management consulting firm based in Richmond, Virginia.  The goal of ICS is to provide a set of management services that adds value while allowing individuals and the organization to learn and grow.}

^{Our intention is to bring high quality, no nonsense service to our customers.  In achieving this it is important that we and our customers understand and agree on any  required service and how that service is to be delivered.  This we achieve by first listening to our customers and then by the  development of a Statement Of Work (SOW).  The SOW is a tool we use to ensure all  parties have a clear understanding of the service to be delivered.  The SOW details the objectives, approach and deliverables.  It is primarily used before the start of an engagement but will be kept current during the length of service.  Should the desired service change for any reason then the SOW would be amended accordingly.  This process brings to the table a level of  performance based consulting to help protect our customer’s investment.}
