The person behind the certification.
Allen is the founder and principal consultant of The CINC Group LLC: a service-disabled U.S. Army veteran who served in the Presidential Escort Honor Guard, and an MBA-trained business operator with more than 16 years of hands-on experience in professional services.
Before launching The CINC Group, Allen built and operated an accounting and tax practice, served as a Classification Analyst at CalPERS, and led multi-state training and consulting programs for veteran entrepreneurs through an SBA-funded Veterans Business Outreach Center. In 2017 the Sacramento Business Journal recognized Allen as one of the region’s Top 40 Under 40 professionals.
The CINC Group reflects Allen’s belief that government contracts deserve the same operational discipline he learned in the Army: clear accountability, reliable execution, and no shortcuts. Every engagement is led personally by Allen, never delegated to junior staff.
