A Women Owned Small Business, Frontier Design Group is committed to helping governments, communities, and organizations think differently, adapt to change, and manage complexity by harnessing the tools of design and systems thinking. Frontier was founded on International Peace Day to solve the world’s most complex national and human security challenges. We balance rigorous, data-driven analysis of complex systems with the creativity of design tools to build innovative solutions. We have worked with the United States Institute of Peace, the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Omidyar Group, the Social Innovation Fund, Impact Hub DC, Rebuilding Re-entry, the Council on Foreign Relations, and commercial firms. Together, we are tackling the riskiest problems in the scrappiest, most imaginative ways, co-creating solutions with our clients and integrating cutting-edge thinking from disparate disciplines. Our clients value our highly collaborative problem-solving processes as much as the solutions we design and implement together.
