Owned, Operated, and Designed for YouAt StepWise Utility Advisors, we do one thing: solve financial problems for water utility and wastewater utility enterprises.  All of our consultants are financial experts.  We are MBA’s, accountants, and economists working with a singular focus that you simply will not find with large firms that try to be all things for all people.  We are financial experts for water and wastewater utilities, nothing more and nothing less.Our small and focused approach is a win for you:

True IndependenceWhen you have an issue with your rates and charges, the last thing you need is someone working for you who has more interest in your spending than in keeping rates low.  Firms that have a vested interest in your agency’s spending have no problem solving your pricing issues by raising rates until the spending plan will work without fail.  As an independent and specialized firm, our interests are clear: we solve financial issues at the least cost to rate payers.
Clear PrioritiesAt StepWise, your project is managed by someone with a direct stake in your success.  Our principals are literally owners of the firm and are directly responsible for not only finishing your project to your satisfaction, but also making sure that your experience with us is so good that you will want to come back to us for all of your water and wastewater financial needs in the future.
Best ValueOur small size means that we keep overhead costs out of your invoice, out of your costs, out of your life!  Our most experienced consultants have a lower hourly billing rates than entry-level analysts at larger firms. Our hourly rates are the best because we run a tight business, but we do even more by packaging our services to further reduce your professional services budgets while sacrificing nothing in between.
