DeLima Associates is a management consulting firm established in Marin County California in 1985. Our main office is located in McLean, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, DC within 15 miles of the U.S. Capitol and federal government agencies and national research institutes and laboratories. Our multi-year repeat consulting contracts are a result of our deep understanding of our clients’ needs, our collaborative working style and our responsiveness to changes in their needs.
Our staff brings fresh thinking to client issues, along with the experience and research to know what really works. They deliver practical, evidence-based solutions that are tailored to your organization’s culture and goals.


Putting clients first is our core value.

Putting clients first means many things. Sometimes it means moving mountains. Often it means moving quickly. It always means identifying and meeting clients’ needs and measuring our performance by the standards they set. Building strong client relationships and consulting with clients, not at them, to deliver clear value for money, sets us apart from our competitors.

Excellence in all we do.

Put simply, this means striving to be the best in whatever we do. It also means assembling the ideal project team of knowledgeable staff and consultants. Our clients rightly expect work of the highest quality-accurate, valuable, on time, on budget with no surprises.

Creativity, innovation and diversity of thought.

We support creativity and innovation. We respect thought leaders, not hierarchy. We welcome new ideas and help our staff and consultants to deliver world class solutions for clients. We roll up
our sleeves and attack problems with all the energy, resources and innovation the situation requires.

A collaborative, multicultural environment where people can learn and grow.

We believe that the best solutions are developed by working together seamlessly in integrated multidisciplinary teams. We make it happen for clients by making our global partners available when specialized offshore skills are needed at short notice. We learn and grow together. We share knowledge, ideas and solutions and partner with clients to solve problems. And we have fun doing it.

Integrity in all our dealings with clients and with each other.

DeLima Associates is a place where personal and professional integrity is paramount. This means we trust and respect both our clients and colleagues and actively defend our principles.

We provide research and consulting services to private industry, R&D organizations and the federal government in the areas of Environmental Health and Energy End-Use.
