About
About Adama Systems
Adama Systems is a systems and strategy consultancy focused on the space where organizational strategy meets the practical realities of delivery. We work in a small-batch consulting model, taking on a limited number of clients at a time so each engagement gets the depth and attention it needs.

Principles that guide how we work
Clarity before action.
We don't move fast for its own sake. Before we build, advise, or recommend, we make sure the problem is understood — by us and by the people it affects. Most implementation failures aren't technical. They're communication failures that happened upstream.
The people are part of the system.
Every workflow, every piece of software, every org chart exists to help people do their jobs. We design with that in mind from the start, not as an afterthought. Change management isn't a final step — it's built into how we work.
Honest over comfortable.
We say what we actually think. That means realistic timelines, hard feedback, and pushback when something isn't going to work. It also means we're wrong sometimes, and we'll say that too. Trust is built on accuracy and honesty, not agreeability.
Fewer but better.
What we mean by "small-batch consulting" is simple: no matter the system or project, we only work with a limited number of clients at once. That constraint gives each engagement the time and care it needs to be built thoroughly and well.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- What kind of engagements do you take on?
- We work with organizations that need to close the gap between strategy and delivery—whether that's mapping existing systems, designing new processes, advising leadership and product teams, or building tools and integrations alongside your staff.
- How do you work with our team?
- We embed with your people rather than operating in a separate silo. That means joint ownership of outcomes, knowledge transfer as we go, and capability that stays in-house after we step back.
- What's the typical scope of a project?
- Engagements range from short discovery and mapping work to ongoing advisory and multi-phase build. We'll scope something that fits your timeline and goals and iterate from there.
- Where are you based?
- We work remotely with clients across North America and are happy to align with your time zones and collaboration rhythms.
