Parkland's skill working with under performing businesses and organizations in an environment that requires significant change in short time frames translates well into the public sector, where shrinking tax bases and increasing demands for services and accountability pose a significant strain. Parkland has adapted these skills and techniques to assist government and non-profit organizations, most notably, Public Housing Authorities.
