About AVMAR

Senior experience, applied hands-on to your business.

AVMAR Solutions Group was built on a simple idea: small and mid-size businesses deserve the same operational rigor and technology strategy that large enterprises and PE-backed groups get, delivered by someone who stays to make it work.

Meet Shaun

Shaun LaJeunesse is the founder of AVMAR Solutions Group and a technology and consulting executive with more than three decades of experience in IT strategy, business and technology transformation, and solution development, delivery and sales. He has led cross-functional teams that delivered results, grew revenue and built lasting customer and partner relationships.

His work spans the full life of a technology decision: evaluating the market, designing the solution, negotiating complex contracts, implementing it and managing the change so people actually adopt it. That includes HRIS implementations, technology portfolio management, predictive analytics, outsourcing and M&A activity.

One of his biggest strengths is translation. Shaun explains complex technology in plain business terms, so owners and executives can make confident decisions without needing to be technologists themselves.

Why he started AVMAR

Too many growing businesses run on disconnected systems, contracts no one has reviewed in years and manual work that technology could handle. Large companies hire teams of consultants to fix this. Small and mid-size businesses usually can't, and the advice they do get often ends with a slide deck.

AVMAR closes that gap. Every engagement is led by Shaun personally, from the first diagnostic through implementation and results tracking.
