We have sat in the chair.

Small and senior by design.
Benchmark Solutions is a boutique gaming and hospitality consultancy. Three principals with more than two decades each in integrated casino resorts, backed by a network of specialists we have worked alongside for years. The people who win the work do the work.
We have sat on the other side of the table.
Most gaming advisors are career consultants. They build the feasibility study, hand it over, and are gone long before the property breaks ground. We have lived the full arc of billion dollar resort developments:
- RFP and bid preparation, and operator selection
- Design development from concept through SD, DD and CD
- Owner's budgets: FF&E, OS&E, systems, gaming
- Pre-opening planning and execution
- Opening, ramp-up, and stabilized operations
- Renovation and expansion on operating properties
That operator's seat is the whole difference. It is why our recommendations survive contact with the real world, and why owners bring us in when the stakes are real.
The hardest problems show up after the model is signed off. We work the entire life cycle because we have had to answer for what happens next. The same rigor the category's leading firms bring, grounded in the experience of having actually opened and run these properties. We advise operators, developers, investors, and governments across the United States, the Caribbean, and Asia.
