About DW&A, Inc.

DW&A operates upstream of execution to prevent avoidable loss before capital or public funds are exposed.

DW&A, Inc. is an execution governance and human capital strategy firm founded by Dr. Dana D. Wells. The firm supports organizations making high-stakes decisions by identifying capital, people, and resource risks before capital, public funds, or reputational trust are committed.

DW&A’s work examines a recurring execution risk that emerges when execution governance is absent, and decisions proceed without verifying that an organization can execute at scale without destroying enterprise value. This condition exposes capital, leadership, people, and resource risks to predictable loss long before results miss targets.

Through independent, diagnostic-first advisory services, DW&A helps organizations assess execution readiness, strengthen decision discipline, and establish governance conditions that increase the likelihood that strategies deliver intended outcomes. The firm’s focus is on protecting outcomes before failure becomes costly.

All DW&A services are advisory and governance-focused. DW&A does not manage programs, deliver services, or assume operational authority.
