A firm built around one idea.
That governance, properly understood, is software. And software, properly built, is compiled.
Dartmouth Advisory Partners is an institutional advisory firm. We serve pension boards, family offices, foundation investment committees, outsourced chief investment officers, and the partners who advise them. We do not chase a logo strip. We do not publish a client list. The engagements we accept are private, and the artifacts we compile inside them are owned by the institutions we serve.
We are a small firm by design. The work we do is not labor-intensive in the way traditional advisory engagements are; the platform is. A Dartmouth engagement looks more like the adoption of a long-lived infrastructure decision than like a year-long consulting project. We have written our economics to make this difference explicit: the platform pays for itself, or it does not get paid.
What we are not
We are not an asset manager. We do not take discretion. We do not participate in investment performance, and our commercial primitives are deliberately designed to avoid the regulatory triggers that come with performance participation. We are not a SaaS vendor in the conventional sense: we sell capability transfer rather than seat licenses, and our recurring economics replace a consulting line that institutional buyers already pay, rather than adding a new one.
We are not a generalist technology consultancy. We do not build dashboards. We do not run change-management workshops as our deliverable. The deliverable is a compiler — a live, signed, audited mechanism by which the institution’s governance documents become its operational reality, automatically, the same business day they change.
What we are
A firm that built the compiler and runs the runtimes. The compiler is Living Policy Architecture. The runtimes are Overture (in production), plus FALCON and Resolve Exchange in active development. Each consumes its own family of governance documents and emits its own runtime behavior. The compiler is what the institutions we serve are buying. The runtimes are how the compiler proves it works.

SS&C GlobeOp (2018–2021). First dedicated Canadian lead. Scaled the Canadian territory 5x, managing fund-administration and technology-licensing relationships with pension plans and family offices.
Burgiss / MSCI Private Capital Solutions (2022–2025). Drove Canadian growth from USD 746K to USD 2.74M ARR (267% increase). Delivered USD 22.7M in new-logo and upsell engagements across pension plans, endowments, OCIOs, and general partners. Became the primary architect for Canadian institutional data governance.
Orchestration discipline applied to AI. An early Bitcoin adopter (October 2014) with 11+ years of hands-on digital-asset experience. Brendan’s thesis: institutional AI must replace probabilistic judgment with verifiable execution. Every approval, every calculation, every regulatory report must be auditable after the fact.
