Command: Higher Order Capital's Execution Engine
At Higher Order Capital, we believe systematic execution is as crucial as strategic vision. Higher Order Command (Command), our operational transformation group, turns insights into outcomes through precise implementation of our automation playbooks. By embedding deeply within portfolio companies, we don't just advise—we execute.
Beyond Traditional Consulting
Command isn't a typical consulting group. Our team of operators, automation experts, and technology leaders work as an extension of your business. We combine deep operational experience with cutting-edge technical capabilities to drive measurable transformation. Through our automation playbooks, we provide battle-tested frameworks that systematically create value.
Our Core Functions

At the heart of Command's mission is the continuous development and refinement of our automation playbooks.

Our team systematically captures learnings across our portfolio, ensuring each company benefits from our collective experience.
