For Growing Teams That Feel Out of Control
We help scaling companies get the right systems, tools, and people in place — so the founder stops working weekends and the team starts working together.
You hired fast, bought software the sales rep swore would fix everything, and brought on an ops person who was supposed to hold it all together. Six months later, nothing talks to anything else, the team still lives in spreadsheets and Slack, and you're the one approving every expense and updating every tracker. You're working harder than you did when you were half this size — and you're starting to wonder if growth was even worth it.
"Matt is an inspiring and thoughtful leader who lifts the abilities of those around him."
"Matt is a leader you trust, respect and want to follow."
For founders who know something's broken but can't pinpoint what. A focused diagnostic that tells you exactly where the gaps are — and what to fix first.
Book a Session →We audit your tools, your workflows, and your team structure — then build an ops architecture that actually fits how your company works. No more shelfware. No more workarounds.
See How It Works →For companies that need more than a plan — they need someone in the seat. We embed with your team to implement, train, and hand off a system that runs without us.
Learn More →You don't need to hire ten more people — you need to automate the work that shouldn't require a human. We identify repetitive judgment calls, document reviews, and routing decisions eating your team's time, and deploy AI solutions that handle them.
Explore AI Solutions →Growing from 15 to 50 people breaks everything that worked when you were small. We restructure your ops, roles, and workflows so the foundation holds — before the growth cracks start.
Prepare to Scale →If your team still makes decisions by digging through spreadsheets, you don't have a reporting system — you have a guessing system. We build the dashboards, data flows, and single source of truth that let you lead with real numbers.
Fix Your Data →"Matt's calm and composed demeanor, coupled with his ability to bring clarity and direction in times of uncertainty, creates an environment where teams can thrive."
No more shelfware. We match the stack to the workflow, not the other way around.
Clear roles, clear systems, clear expectations. Your next ops hire succeeds because the foundation is already there.
No more four tools for one job. Everyone knows where to look and what to update.
When the data is clean and the dashboards are real, you stop guessing and start leading.
Scale from 15 to 50 without the wheels falling off. The system grows with you.
You built this company to have a life, not to be trapped inside it.
Most consultants sell you software. Most ops hires inherit a mess they can't untangle. The reason it keeps breaking is that nobody connects the three things that have to work together: your tools, your people, and your processes.
We do all three — because we've been on both sides. Our founder has scaled engineering teams from 24 to 57 in regulated, high-stakes environments (health, defense, utilities) AND built a company from scratch as CEO, handling everything from product roadmap to P&L to go-to-market. That means we understand what it's like to be the founder who can't let go, AND we know how to build the organizational system that makes letting go safe.
We assess what you have, design what you need, and stay until it's running. Not a recommendation deck that collects dust — a working system your team owns.
Learn About Our Process →If our Operations Clarity Session doesn't give you a clear, actionable path forward, you don't pay. We've seen too many founders burned by expensive promises with nothing to show for it. We won't add to that list.
For regulated industries: If you're in health, defense, utilities, or another compliance-heavy environment, we've been there. Our team has delivered in HIPAA, NIST SP 800-53, and DoD-regulated environments. Your ops overhaul won't create a compliance problem — we build with those constraints baked in from the start.
Before we advised anyone else on operational systems, we built one ourselves. FunFangle is a production SaaS platform with integrated RFID hardware that replaced the clipboards, cash envelopes, paper sign-in sheets, and binder-based medication logs at camps and community organizations across North America — with one connected system.
The organizations we built FunFangle for were facing the same problem you are: scattered tools, manual processes, no single source of truth, and staff spending their time on admin instead of the mission. We didn't hand them a recommendation deck. We shipped a nationwide distributed system — offline-capable, modular, role-based — that serves tens of thousands of users with support calls under 1% of the total user population.
"We went from cutting paper pony bucks and keeping handwritten tallies to a fully cashless operation where every transaction is tracked and every parent can see balances in real time."
"The parents could see what was going on with their child's account. They started coming to us and offering their remaining balance for kids who didn't have accounts."
What this means for you: The consulting approach we bring to your company isn't theoretical. It comes from building, shipping, and supporting a real operational platform for real organizations — and from being a founder who had to make every decision, write every line of code, and make every dollar count.
See FunFangle →JP Greze Co is led by Matthew Vahlberg — a technology executive with 15+ years scaling engineering organizations in regulated industries (health, defense, utilities) and a founder who built and ran his own SaaS platform end-to-end, from product architecture to go-to-market to P&L.
Matt has personally lived the journey these clients are stuck in. He's been the founder doing everything — closing deals, writing code, managing finances, making every decision — and he's been the senior director who scaled a team from 24 to 57 professionals in seven months while establishing the management processes and engineering practices that made the growth stick (with over 95% team retention).
He is a named inventor on two US patents in data systems architecture and has deployed AI/ML solutions in enterprise environments that replaced hundreds of manual positions with automated systems. The people who've worked with Matt describe him as someone who "brings clarity and direction in times of uncertainty" and "lifts the abilities of those around him." That's not an accident — it's the approach. We don't just hand you a playbook. We get in the room with you, diagnose what's actually broken, and stay until it's running.
We diagnose what's broken — tools, roles, workflows — so you stop guessing and start with clarity.
We design an ops system built around how your company actually works. No cookie-cutter playbooks.
We implement alongside your team, train them to own it, and hand off something that runs without us.
