Miami-Dade · Broward · Palm Beach

We move business through South Florida government.

A public affairs firm specialized in the tri-county corridor. Strategic communications, government relations, advocacy, and economic development advisory.

AB Consulting Solutions is a South Florida public affairs firm. We help businesses, developers, nonprofits, and community organizations work with local government: approvals and agenda items, coalitions and community support, and the communications that carry them. The practice is built on a decade spent inside city and county government, and it treats three counties as one market.

Palm Beach County

39 municipalities, each with its own process.

From the county commission to the smallest town council, we prepare clients for the room their issue will actually be decided in.

Process

How an engagement runs.

01

Start with the real problem.

Every engagement opens with the outcome you need, in plain terms. Then we map who decides it and what they care about.

02

Find the door that opens.

Most issues have several possible paths. We pick the one with a live process, a receptive audience, and a realistic timeline.

03

Move it. Then measure it.

We work the plan and report in plain English. Success is counted in approvals granted, items passed, and commitments kept.

Why us

Built on a decade inside local government.

The practice comes from years spent inside South Florida city and county government: writing the staff memos, briefing officials, running the community meetings, and watching where good requests stall. Clients get that experience with a defined scope and a deliverable attached.
