A Fortaleza management consultancy

Slow, methodical advisory work for organisations that intend to outlast the current leadership.

Who we are, in one page.

The firm was constituted on the sixteenth of November, 2000, and has operated continuously from its office at Avenida Júlio Abreu, 160, in the Varjota district of Fortaleza, ever since. Our primary economic activity is management consulting (CNAE 70.20-4-00); our secondary activity is training in professional and managerial development (CNAE 85.99-6-04). Together, these two lines describe the whole of our practice.

The company also operates a preparatory course division under the previously registered fantasia name CURSO PROF. JORGE HELIO, which delivers structured training programmes for candidates preparing for public-sector examinations in the states of Ceará and neighbouring jurisdictions. That division has been part of the firm since inception and continues to be run from the same Fortaleza office by the same partnership.

We are a small, partnership-run firm — the Portuguese "Sociedade Simples" — organised for durability rather than scale. Every engagement is signed by the company under its own CNPJ and delivered by consultants who are members of the partnership or long-standing associates working under written contract. We do not act as a reseller, as a lead broker or as an affiliate, and we do not operate a franchise network. The trade name "Polis Consulting" identifies this English-language website and is used exclusively by the firm.

Two practice areas, each registered as a distinct CNAE.

How a mandate begins, proceeds and closes.

Five moments, in the same order, since the firm's first engagement in 2000.

  1. First

    Introductory conversation

    An unhurried meeting, in person or by video, so that the client can describe the situation in their own words and so that we can decide honestly whether we are the right firm for the mandate.

  2. Second

    Written proposal

    A short document — usually two to four pages — that sets out the scope, the deliverables, the timeline, the team, the fee and the assumptions on which the whole engagement rests. Nothing begins until the client signs.

  3. Third

    Execution

    Weekly working sessions with the client team, a shared document workspace, and written interim memos at agreed intervals. We prefer visible, incremental progress to grand mid-project reveals.

  4. Fourth

    Closing memo

    A written note summarising what was decided, what was delivered, what remains open, and what the client should keep in mind for the following quarter. This document travels with the client, not with us.

  5. Fifth

    Optional follow-through

    Where the client wishes it, a quarterly review cadence for the following twelve months — priced separately, scoped separately, never assumed as an extension of the original mandate.

Notes from clients we have worked with.

Management consulting · Public-sector agency · Fortaleza/CE
"They spent the first two weeks doing nothing but listening. When the diagnostic memo arrived, it described our agency in terms we had never quite been able to articulate ourselves — and the recommendations that followed were things we could actually put into practice with the team we already had."
H. F. — Deputy DirectorPublic administration client · 2024 engagement
Executive training · Family-owned business · Sobral/CE
"We hired the firm for a six-month management development programme for our middle managers. What we got, in addition to the training itself, was a set of internal routines the team now runs on its own. That was worth every real of the fee."
M. S. — Managing PartnerFamily-owned distribution company · 2023 engagement
Preparatory courses · Individual candidate · Ceará
"The course under Professor Jorge Helio was the reason I felt prepared on the day of the examination. Everything was structured, sequential and — importantly — honest about what the exam would and would not ask."
A. R. — Successful candidatePublic-sector examination · 2024 cohort
