Biography

Richard D. Voreis is Chief Executive Officer of Consulting Collaborative, a management consulting firm specializing in the construction and building products industry with offices in Dallas, TX, Annapolis, MD, Atlanta, GA, Indianapolis, IN, Los Angeles, CA, Nashville, TN and Pittsburgh, PA. Consulting Collaborative offers a wide array of in-depth consulting services backed by over three decades of solid experience gained from working with industry-leading companies. Clients include architects, general contractors, subcontractors, engineers, building product manufacturers, distributors and industry trade associations.

The consulting firm is always in contact with dozens of clients, so they know what works and what doesn’t work in today’s challenging business environment. They provide their clients with how “best of class” companies operate as well as “best practices” specific to their business and industry. Very few people have the opportunity to see what they see on a continuing basis; thus, their clients always benefit from the newest and proven strategic advantages.

Domestic and international clients are primarily building product manufacturers or companies supporting that industry. Their annual sales range from about $2 million to over $20 billion.

Before founding Consulting Collaborative, Mr. Voreis was Chief Operating Officer of United States Aluminum Corporation near Dallas, TX, President and CEO of Hebel Building Systems in Atlanta, GA and Vice President of Marketing and Sales for the Kawneer Company at its corporate office in Norcross, GA.
