What Our Clients Say
“Al Rafay Consulting was an outstanding partner in developing our internal pipeline tracker. They took a detailed upfront inventory of the team's existing tools and processes, as well as areas our overall system could improve. ARC was extremely communicative throughout the development process and instrumental in the successful launch.”
Adam Goldblatt
Director, Investments
BioMed Realty
“BioMed Realty engaged ARC 7 years ago originally to kick start an internal SharePoint campaign with the goal of increasing productivity through workflow automation. We've now grown our work with SharePoint into a full blown Business Intelligence platform that has created tremendous efficiency and value for our organization.”
David Hsiao
Senior Vice President, CIO
BioMed Realty
“When we were looking to design and implement our new website, ARC was an invaluable partner. ARC assisted us in selecting a flexible platform and implementing our design ideas into a website that we can easily manage and update as we grow our business.”
Catherine Hastings
Chief Financial Officer
Innovative Industrial Properties
“Al Rafay Consulting went above and beyond to give us the Event Management tool that we needed to take our organization to the next level. Ali and his team developed an events management platform for San Diego Theatres, sat side by side with us while learning our industry and business model, and through it all exhibited patience, collaboration, and resolve to get it done.”
Kelly Bargabos
CFO/COO
San Diego Theatres
“Working with ARC over the past 3 years has been nothing short of exceptional. The team has everything that you would look for in a consultant and then some. A vast knowledge of their core business as well as a hunger to learn new industries and skills has proven to be a critical aspect of our partnership.”
