Message From Founder...


A Message from Braintree's Chairman and Chief Project Consultant
When I founded Braintree Solution Consulting, Inc. in 1998 I had a clear idea of what I wanted the firm to stand for - and against. I saw a need for an organization dedicated to systematic and objective analysis, one which balanced these impersonal tools with a deep and abiding commitment to service.

Our trademarked icon of a tree within a "@" symbol swoop embodies the philosophy and practice of the company. The swoop represents the information and resources that flow in and out of a system or organization, originating from and arriving at tangible resources - symbolized here by our tree. The tree, of course, is an icon of many expressions, most relevant to Braintree as "the tree of knowledge" and our production of "decision-trees," not to mention its branches, roots, leaves, seeds and fruit as metaphors of life, its processes and permutations. But also contained within the tree, capping the top, is a phoenix - symbol of new life and rejuvenation - potentially in flight and yet inseparable from the tree. Taken together, these three images - the swoop, tree and phoenix - represent Braintree's organizational function: to revitalize neglected or sub-optimized solutions, to resurrect and apply information and knowledge, to renew the commitment of organizations and partners, and to transform individuals, organizations and communities. These commitments define our existence.           Braintree Logo Icon

I hope you give Braintree the opportunity to serve you so that you can find out for yourself the difference we can make together.

Sincerely,
Nicholas (Colin) Newlin
