Surgical, operator-led business intelligence company specializing in business turnaround consulting, performance optimization, and contract risk advisory for owners, boards, universities, athletic departments, and high-visibility leaders across the United States and in select global situations — delivered with quiet, confidential analysis before the cameras and lenders get involved.
Read the risk. Rewrite the outcome. Powered by Buxtelligence™.
Buxtel Consulting Group is an operator-led business intelligence company and success consultancy leveraging its proprietary Buxtelligence™ methodology. We help owners, boards, and programs avoid avoidable failures and perform better over time through business turnarounds, performance optimization, and contract risk advisory.
If your P&L is sliding, margins are tight, or growth has stalled, we build a simple, survivable business turnaround and performance plan grounded in real cash, not wishful thinking.
If your board is anxious about a contract, buyout, or headline risk, we turn emotion into clear contract risk math and give you defensible options before you announce anything.
Business Success Track
For funded and scrappy founders. We design runway, pricing, and operating models that can survive real-world pressure, not just pitch decks—business turnaround thinking built in from day one.
Business Success Track
For owners in visible or quiet distress. We stop the bleed in restaurants, hospitality, manufacturing, and service businesses before it turns into a public failure—and give lenders and stakeholders a believable, operator-led turnaround plan.
For healthy operators
For stable businesses ready to grow or exit. We tune revenue, margins, and systems so your business performs like it should before you step into M&A conversations.
For buyers, sellers & platforms
We show you what the deal will feel like in real operations, ensuring the P&L and culture match the pitch book so your transaction actually creates value.
For owners & investors
Buy, lease, or expand with numbers, not emotion—especially in growth markets like Nashville and Tampa. We apply the same operator lens to your location and build-out decisions for multi-location retail, hospitality, and service footprints.
For executives signing big agreements
We translate complex commercial agreements into lived reality so your future self—and your board— can live with what you sign today.
When there are too many voices, too much pressure, and no clear path forward, Buxtel provides a sober, operator-led second set of eyes for your board and ownership group.
Governance Track
For owners, family boards, and institutional governance. We translate metrics, narratives, and politics into clear options so boards can act before a crisis forces their hand.
Governance Track
When you’re not sure if it’s a turnaround, a governance issue, a deal problem, or all of the above, we turn noise into 2–3 real, sequenced choices you can explain to your stakeholders.
We help universities, athletic directors, and high-visibility figures see the real downside of major contracts—before they’re announced and before they’re questioned at the podium.
Contract Success Track
For Presidents, ADs, and Boards worldwide. We act as an operator-led turnaround consultant for universities and athletic departments, converting emotion, politics, and pressure into clear contract risk math before you announce a coaching or staff decision.
Contract Success Track
For head coaches, athletes, and high-visibility talent. We sit beside your agent and counsel as the operator-strategist, making sure your life, taxes, and runway work across 10–20 years.
Our philosophy is simple: your decisions should survive worst-case scenarios and still produce durable success. We bring P&L leadership, board-level governance, and contract risk advisory to every engagement.
Buxtel Consulting Group was founded by Adrian Jackson, a success consultant and operator with deep experience running large P&Ls across restaurants, manufacturing, and service groups, and working alongside universities and athletic departments on performance and contract risk.
His portfolio includes seven- and eight-figure turnarounds, performance work in complex multi-unit operations, and direct exposure to high-visibility contract and buyout dynamics.
We sit next to owners, presidents, and ADs when the room gets quiet before a big decision.
Buxtel Consulting Group provides business turnaround consulting, performance optimization, and contract risk advisory out of Nashville, TN and Tampa, FL, serving clients nationally.
A quick, numbers-first read on your current operating risk. Answer three questions and we’ll place you on a simple red–yellow–green band: Stop, Caution, or Go.
The Buxtelligence™ meter doesn’t replace a full engagement, but it shows quickly whether you’re in Turnaround, Optimization, or Deal Prep territory.
Stop
Critical: lender pressure, shrinking runway.
Caution
Tight: flat cash, thin buffer, rising strain.
Go
Healthy: clear runway, room to optimize.
These are the questions we hear most from owners, boards, and athletic departments before they hire Buxtel.
We are an operator-led business intelligence company and success consultancy specializing in business turnaround consulting, performance optimization, and contract risk advisory. We help businesses, boards, and programs fix P&L issues, manage turnarounds, and avoid contract decisions that are hard to defend later.
Our clients are operators, owners, and leaders facing high-stakes decisions: a founder whose runway is tightening; an owner dealing with slipping margins; a university president or athletic director anxious about a massive coach buyout clause; or an athlete building a long-term financial plan around their next deal and seeking contract risk advisory for athletic departments and sports programs.
No, we serve clients nationally. While our operational base is in Nashville, TN, and Tampa, FL, our work— especially for performance turnarounds, contract risk advisory, and M&A support—is delivered remotely across the United States.
We don't provide legal advice; we provide numbers-first analysis. We use Buxtelligence™—our operator-led risk intelligence—to run scenario modeling (win/loss records, early exits, incentive triggers) and calculate realistic cost and downside exposure over the lifetime of the agreement. This is contract risk advisory grounded in lived operating reality.
