The practitioner's lens.
Not the consultant's pitch.
Beanz Consulting was built on one conviction: the best advisory comes from people who have carried real accountability — not people who have only observed it. Every engagement we take reflects that.
Start a Conversation →The gap no one was filling.
Independent. Practitioner-led. Conflict-free.
Most advisory firms either sell you a methodology or a headcount. Beanz was built to do neither. Every engagement starts from the practitioner's lens — from someone who has carried the P&L, managed the attrition numbers, and sat on the other side of the vendor contract.
No Conflicts of Interest
We don't place staff. We don't take referral fees. We don't have vendor relationships to protect. When we recommend something, it's because it's right for you.
Built from the Inside
20+ years inside Fortune 500 organisations — not advising from the outside. Every framework we use was stress-tested in environments where the outcome actually mattered.
Capability Transfer, Not Dependency
We don't design engagements that keep you coming back. Every piece of work is structured to leave your team stronger and more self-sufficient than when we arrived.
Most consultants talk about GCCs.
Viraj has actually built one.
The story begins not in a consulting firm, but on the inside. Twenty years across three Fortune 500 organisations — Procter & Gamble, General Mills, Kraft Heinz — building, scaling, and fixing operations across three continents. Supply chains. GBS functions. Manufacturing transformations. Not advising from the outside. Carrying the P&L, the headcount targets, the attrition numbers, the board presentations.
the tree takes care of itself."
Then came the defining chapter: building Kraft Heinz's first-ever Global Capability Centre from a blank page. No template. No predecessor to follow. A mandate, a timeline, and accountability for the outcome. The result: 1,000+ capacity, 20+ Centres of Excellence, and under 5% attrition against an industry average of 20%.
That experience is not the backstory to Beanz Consulting. It is Beanz Consulting. Every framework, every recommendation, every engagement draws from what was learned — and what was earned — in those years. Not borrowed methodology. The real thing, with real accountability behind it.
Beanz Consulting exists because Viraj saw a gap the industry wasn't filling: independent advisory with no conflicts of interest, no staff augmentation business to protect, no vendor relationships to preserve. Just the practitioner's lens — on your side.
We don't offer quick fixes.
We build things that last.
Foundation First
Every great capability starts with the right bean — planted with intent, not expediency. We refuse to shortcut the fundamentals.
No Conflicts
We carry no vendor relationships, no staff augmentation business, no incentive to recommend anything other than what is right for you.
Designed to Exit
We optimise for the time when your organisation no longer needs us. That is the measure of success — not the length of the engagement.
Transparent Pricing. Always.
No ambiguity. No scope creep. No incentive to make the work last longer than it needs to. You know the price before the work begins.
