Our Story

Founded in 2019 by Clay Tippins, The Virtus Solution was built on a simple but powerful belief: that a select group of clients—those who prioritize stewardship, quality, and genuine partnership—deserve more than just advisory services. They deserve a consulting partner who approaches every engagement with unwavering commitment, integrity, and a relentless focus on delivering measurable results.
At Virtus, we combine the rigor and analytical precision of Tier 1 consulting with deep, hands-on industry experience. This dual perspective allows us to not only develop forward-thinking strategies but also ensure their practical implementation and lasting impact. Our team works alongside clients as trusted partners, navigating complex challenges, uncovering opportunities, and translating insight into action. Every project is approached with a balance of strategic vision and operational know-how, ensuring that the solutions we deliver are not only smart but sustainable.
From optimizing business operations and driving transformation initiatives to leveraging advanced analytics and emerging technologies, Virtus is dedicated to helping clients achieve outcomes that matter. We measure our success by the tangible value we create and the trust we build, believing that true partnership goes beyond advice—it’s about delivering results that endure.
