Consult Disrupt, an equipment finance advisory and technology consultancy, is celebrating its fifth anniversary.
Founded in 2020, Consult Disrupt was born from Jesse Johnson’s conviction that true success comes from doing the right thing, building trust and creating sustainable results for clients. That guiding principle has fueled the firm’s steady growth.
In its first five years, Consult Disrupt has partnered with financial institutions, independent lessors and technology providers to navigate complex digital transformations. Key milestones include:
- Guiding a U.S. bank through a complete loan and lease origination system modernization, resulting in a 32% reduction in turnaround time and improved compliance confidence
- Supporting multiple fintech scale-ups with go-to-market strategies and operational frameworks that align technology with purpose and profitability
- Advising community banks and independents on platform evaluations, vendor selection and process optimization
- Co-leading strategic platform reviews with trusted partners such as Liventus
“Five years in, we’re still guided by the same principles; transparency, long-term partnership and a belief that greed doesn’t drive wealth,” Johnson said. “Our clients trust us because we play the long game by helping them make smart, ethical, sustainable decisions in a fast-changing market.”
