As a vastly experienced team of 10-plus consultants to the design industry — whether it be architecture, engineering, or construction — we see every situation as an opportunity to help you realize your goals and potential.
Founded — and consulting to design firms ever since.
Principals and key consultants across every discipline.
Architecture, engineering and construction firms are our practice.
Service areas, combined into engagements built for your firm.
Every engagement is bespoke. We use history, analysis, and a clear view of what’s ahead to help you weigh the choices in front of you — because any one question has more than one answer, and every firm is different.
Our consultants have led design practices, taught, written, and advised through four decades of change in the profession. That experience shows up as perspective you can act on, not a template you have to adopt.
Examples of engagements are broad and bespoke for each client. We encourage you to explore the more complete list — here is a distillation.
Where the firm is going, what it will take to get there, and how leadership lines up behind it.
Positioning and pursuit strategy that fit how design and construction clients actually buy.
Ownership and leadership transition and succession, structured so the firm outlasts the people who built it.
Valuation, fit and negotiation — plus the integration work that follows the signature.
Compensation, incentives and org design — the systems that decide who stays and who advances.
Project delivery, staffing models and financial management, measured against performance goals.
Unleash creative juices — the talent, collaboration, culture and process behind a firm’s design work.
Most engagements begin with a conversation about what’s actually in the way.
Entrust our business consultants for architecture, engineering, construction and other professional firms.
For any situation there are choices. We explore those options with you and help you reach the decision that is right for your firm — one you are motivated to pursue.
We start with where you are today and where you want to be tomorrow — from the people who run the firm and the people who make it work.
Our approach is not formulaic. Every situation is an opportunity to combine years of wisdom and understanding with a passion for creativity.
Our goal is a dialogue that lets you build a strategy that is both effective and comfortable — an answer you actually believe in.
The consultant’s role is not to run your firm. We enable you to realize your goals and potential. The results will always be your achievement.
The year the firm was founded — and the reason we have seen this cycle before.
Since the firm was founded in 1967, The Coxe Group has remained a focused group of highly effective consultants working to improve the lives of our clients and their people.
Through listening and understanding where clients are today — and where they want to be tomorrow — we provide perspective, insight, tools, strategies and actionable information to help you succeed in your chosen path.

The partners of a highly successful, single-market firm wanted to sell the firm as a means of extracting some of the considerable value that had been created. They also wanted to gain the organizational and managerial support that they hoped the buyer would provide. They asked for our help in finding the buyer and in structuring the deal.
Martin was one of two 50-50 owners in a 20-person architecture firm when he decided to depart the firm several years before “normal” retirement – so that he could become more involved with a real estate development company.
