GCE Fractional Integrator Services
Operational Backbone for EOS® Execution
Fractional Integrator Services That Turn Vision Into Execution
A fractional Integrator is an experienced operational leader who runs the day-to-day execution of your business part-time — owning the Level 10 meeting, Scorecard, quarterly Rocks, and accountability that turns vision into finished work.
GCE created the fractional Integrator category in 2016. Today, we deliver more than one operator. We bring the Integrator, the executive bench, the operating process, and written guarantees behind the engagement.
You get senior operating leadership without carrying a full-time executive salary — and without depending on a solo operator to figure it out alone.
Why GCE Is Different
Most firms sell you a fractional Integrator.
GCE delivers business transformation.
Your Integrator is supported by HR, revenue, finance, and recruiting leaders who can plug in when the business needs them. That means when execution exposes a people issue, cash issue, sales issue, or hiring issue, you do not have to go find another consultant – it is already built into the model. At GCE, we’re ultimately focused on execution and driving Enterprise Value.
A solo operator brings their experience.
GCE brings the operator, the bench, and the system behind them.
What Your Fractional Integrator Owns
Running the meeting, protecting the agenda, driving issue resolution, and making sure the room leaves with decisions.
Scorecard Discipline
Building and managing the numbers that show whether the business is healthy before results are missed.
Quarterly Rock Execution
Helping the team narrow priorities, clarify ownership, and land the work that matters most this quarter.
Issue Resolution
Using IDS to stop issues from recycling week after week without a decision.
Leadership Accountability
Making sure leaders own their numbers, commitments, and the conversations required to move the business.
Visionary/Integrator Alignment
Keeping the founder and Integrator on the same page before misalignment spreads through the team.
What Comes With Your Integrator
A GCE engagement includes more than weekly operating leadership.
Access to GCE’s executive bench across HR, revenue, finance, and recruiting
A full-time GCE COO providing oversight behind your Integrator
WINS: our process for sizing the engagement around the outcomes you want
A results-based value report covering the previous 90 days
Scheduled diagnostics across leadership, HR, revenue, finance, recruiting, and process
The Accelerator program at qualifying engagement levels
A vetting standard roughly 2% of Integrator applicants clear
This is how we reduce the risk of hiring one person and hoping they can carry the whole business.

Week Two — Embedded
Your Integrator is running the Level 10 meeting, tightening the Scorecard, and identifying the real bottlenecks.
Month One — Baseline
We establish a leadership baseline so progress can be measured, not assumed.
Day 90 — Right-Seat Guarantee
If the fit is not right, we replace your Integrator free. No restart fee.
What a GCE Fractional Integrator Costs
Most GCE engagements commonly run between $10,000 to $16,000 per month, depending on scope, hours, and business complexity.
That fee includes more than the Integrator.
It includes the executive bench, COO oversight, WINS process, diagnostic cadence, and operating support behind the engagement.
Engagements are typically customized between 5 and 30 hours per week, based on the outcome you are trying to achieve.
Most clients stay between 9 and 36 months, because the work keeps creating value — not because they are locked in.
No pre-payment • No long-term contract • No handcuffs
If you ever decide you want your Integrator permanently in-house, GCE will provide three candidates for a full-time Integrator for a flat $30,000, compared to the $60,000-plus a traditional headhunter may charge.

When You Need a Fractional Integrator
A GCE Fractional Integrator may be the right fit when:
The founder is still too involved in daily execution
Quarterly Rocks keep slipping
Leadership meetings create updates, not decisions
The Scorecard exists, but no one acts on it
The same issues keep coming back
Department leaders are working hard but not aligned
You are using EOS® but not getting the traction you expected
You need senior operating leadership before hiring a full-time Integrator
This is not about adding another consultant.
It is about putting real operating leadership into the business.
Fractional Integrator vs. EOS® Implementer
An EOS® Implementer teaches and facilitates the EOS® framework.
A Fractional Integrator works inside your business to drive execution every week.
Both roles are valuable.
The Implementer helps the leadership team understand and use the system.
The Integrator makes sure the system becomes part of how the company actually operates.
If your team understands EOS® but still lacks traction, the issue may not be the framework.
It may be that no one is truly driving it inside the business.
What People Say About Working with GCE
Frequently Asked Questions About Hiring a Fractional Integrator
-
A Fractional Integrator serves as the operational leader of your business to bring structure, accountability, and execution to your vision. Think of them as your “second in command”: they align your people, processes, and priorities, so your company runs smoothly and profitably. GCE’s Integrators bring deep EOS® experience to keep your business on track and your leadership team in sync.
-
If your business has a strong vision but struggles with execution, a Fractional Integrator can bridge that gap. GCE’s Integrators are highly skilled operators who can quickly assess challenges, provide hands-on leadership, and stabilize operations with proven processes that drive measurable results — without the full-time cost of a C-suite hire
-
It depends on what your business needs right now. GCE supports both fractional and full-time Integrators, and our role is to recommend the right leadership for your stage, pressure points, and goals, not push a specific model. Some companies need senior-level execution without a full-time hire, while others are ready for permanently-embedded leadership. Many start with a Fractional Integrator to stabilize execution and gain clarity, then transition to full-time once the business is ready. If you’re unsure about which model fits your situation, we’ve built an Integrator Assessment to help clarify what your business actually needs based on your personal context.
-
Scaling requires systems, structure, and leadership discipline. Our Integrators identify gaps in people, process, and priorities, then implement strategies that create clarity, stability, and accountability. The result: a business that can grow without breaking
-
In addition to running daily operations, our Integrators coach and mentor your leadership team, supporting individuals as they step into new responsibilities and helping them develop the skills to sustain long-term success. We believe in growing both the business and the people who run it.
-
We don’t drop in to give advice and disappear — we work inside the business and take real ownership of outcomes. GCE Integrators are seasoned executives with real-world experience leading EOS® companies, with perspective shaped by running the entire business, not just the operating system. We pioneered the Fractional Integrator market in 2016 and have worked alongside some of the most respected EOS® Implementers, operators, and founders in the field.
-
No. While we excel in EOS®, our Integrators can bring clarity and structure to any leadership system or company on the growth path. We adapt our proven processes to fit your company.
-
Our proven process begins with a deep intake to understand your goals, culture, and operational challenges. From there, we select the Integrator whose experience, leadership style, and industry expertise best align with your needs. If it’s not the right fit, we’ll replace them — at no cost to you.
-
No. An EOS® Implementer teaches and facilitates the EOS® framework. A Fractional Integrator works inside your business, leading your team to execute on that or another framework every day. Many successful companies benefit from having both roles: an Implementer to guide, and an Integrator to drive execution.
-
Our Integrators work with a limited number of clients so that each one gets deep, focused attention. We operate as an extension of your leadership team: attending meetings, guiding decisions, and driving accountability as if we were in-house. We don’t just advise; we lead.
