An Atlanta-based management and consulting firm that employs veteran fighter pilots and special forces soldiers wants to open a network in Birmingham.

Jim Murphy, founder and CEO of Afterburner Inc., said the networks will allow businesses in each city to have access to consultants who use military training and procedures to improve business operations.

He said he hopes to launch a Birmingham network during the first half of this year.

Murphy, a former Air Force pilot, said his firm, with staff of more than 50, employs entirely former fighter pilots, U.S. Navy Seals and anyone who has served in special operations groups such as the U.S. Army Special Forces. He said his firm employs what he calls the “flawless execution model,” a method that he said pushes businesses to make as few errors as possible to improve productivity, increase sales and save costs.

“Our model can be applied to almost any business," he said. "It accelerates individual team and organizational performance."
