The Lara Group is a consulting practice specializing in compliance transformation and PMO advisory for organizations operating in regulated industries — fintech, energy, technology, and government.

We are brought in when regulatory complexity has outpaced an organization's ability to manage it: when compliance is a fire drill instead of a function, when decision-making is stalled waiting for governance that doesn't exist yet, or when a major program needs the infrastructure to actually deliver.

Our work is operational, not theoretical. We build the dashboards, workflows, governance cadences, and accountability structures that organizations use to run compliance at scale — not just the frameworks that describe it.

Engagements include:
• PMO buildout — from charter to operating cadence, built for regulated environments
• Compliance transformation — converting fragmented obligations into repeatable operating models
• Risk governance — frameworks that satisfy regulators and inform C-suite decisions
• AI/ML compliance implementation — governance structures for AI systems across regulatory jurisdictions

Selected client work:
• Established the PMO for PG&E's $15B Department of Energy initiative — dashboards, dependencies, and workflows for capital projects and regulatory compliance
• Rebuilt Carrier Digital's investment approval process, reducing C-suite decisions from quarter-long stalls to a predictable cadence (10× faster)
• Designed Google Data Centers' global risk visibility framework across 30+ facilities, improving crisis response and executive coordination
• Operationalized Sia Consulting's Legal Operations service offering, defining scope and delivery model and establishing a new revenue stream

Principal Alejandro Lara is a PMP-certified Senior Program Manager with 10+ years across fintech, energy, aviation, and government.
