Mike Riffel

As the leader of the firm’s transformation services practice, I set the practice strategy, support our growing team, and ensure clients receive excellent service. I work with our team to help clients modernize their technology and transform their operations. We’re industry leaders in learning about our clients’ situations, understanding their vision, and representing their best interests so they can achieve their individual and organizational strategic goals.

My clients know I invest the time to understand their unique working environment. In general, our specific projects are usually one of many initiatives that our clients are undertaking. What strengthens our relationships is our ability to convey that we understand their challenges and that we’re here to help.

I’m a member of the Government Finance Officers Association, Illinois Government Finance Officers Association, Massachusetts Municipal Association, National Association of State Controllers and Treasurers, Association of School Business Officials, International City/County Management Association, and the Public Technology Institute. I earned a B.A. in international relations and an M.S. in public policy and administration from Michigan State University. I’m a certified government chief information officer through Rutgers University’s School of Public Affairs and Administration.

With more than two decades of professional experience, I believe my greatest accomplishment is my family. Everything I’ve accomplished professionally and personally I truly owe to the ongoing support and encouragement of my family at home. In my free time, I enjoy college football tailgating at Boston College with friends and family.
