// About
No War Holdings is an operational and technology consulting firm founded by Danny Schaefer. The name is the promise: no war between a company and its software, its operators, or the people it serves.
The deeper reason to work with NWH is what comes after the fix. Over more than two decades, Danny has built a network of trusted subject-matter experts across virtually every discipline of business and technology.
// The operator
Danny Schaefer has spent 24+ years inside the machinery of companies, building them, selling for them, running them, and fixing them, with domain-level depth across healthcare, finance, technology, SaaS, bandwidth infrastructure, unified communications, and contact centers.
That range is the point. Operational problems repeat across industries, and the operators who have seen them everywhere fix them fastest.
// The network
The teardown is the beginning, not the end.
Once a teardown is complete and the operational foundation is secure, Danny opens his network. When a client hits a problem outside the core engagement, he taps a vetted bench of specialists across industries instead of leaving the client to solve it alone.
// Track record
Founder & COO
A proprietary agentic AI platform that manages unified communication channels, including WebRTC, phone, SMS, email, and WhatsApp. The convergence of Danny's two deepest domains: contact center technology and AI-driven automation.
Founder / Consultant
The consulting practice itself: nearly nine years of operational and technology engagements, now formalized around the EOS and VAM methodologies and NWH's standardized technology stack.
COO & AI Solutions Architect
Chief Operating Officer and AI Solutions Architect building modern LM/ML-ready infrastructure, automations, and SaaS products. Hands-on proof that NWH's technology practice runs on current AI-era engineering, not legacy IT consulting.
COO · COO · Strategic Advisor, Treasurer & Board Member
A concurrent cluster of behavioral-health leadership roles: Chief Operating Officer of two recovery-services organizations while serving as strategic advisor, treasurer, and board member of a third.
Interim Chief Operations Officer
A seven-month interim mandate to optimize the business model, software development practice, and DevOps cycle, including restructuring technology leadership with the replacement of the CTO and chief of product. The hard-edged operational work that defines an NWH engagement.
Chief Executive Officer
Nearly nine years as CEO, building one of Colorado's largest online travel agencies and tour operations providers, a value-added reseller representing IHG, Hilton, Hyatt, and Marriott properties, alongside experiential marketing and consumer brand activations.
Co-Founder, Director of Sales
Co-founded a cloud contact center platform and led sales for over four years before selling his interests back to his business partners. The platform is still operating today, more than a decade later. That durability is what NWH builds toward in every engagement.
Master Agent
Telecommunications master agent and broker representing a portfolio of more than 3,000 technology service providers and managed service providers, a supply-side vantage point that still informs how NWH architects and prices client stacks.
Senior Sales Manager & Regional Channel Manager
Managed outside sales channels and value-added resellers, among the largest sales organizations in telecommunications, while selling directly into enterprise clients across VoIP and carrier platform services, fiber optic internet, and colocation including high-density server environments.
Senior Account Executive & Implementations Manager
Built and deployed more than 476 unique contact center solutions spanning every industry that runs on the combination of phone and internet. Each deployment meant translating a different business's operations into working technology, the pattern that became NWH's consulting-plus-engineering model.
Recovery Manager & Systems Admin
Managing financial recovery operations and administering the firm's systems: the start of a career defined by running both the business process and the technology beneath it.

// The thread
Founder. CEO. Interim COO. Channel leader. Board member. Across 24+ years and every industry that runs on phones, software, and people, the common thread is systems: every one of these companies got better when its operating model and its technology finally matched.
That is the work at No War Holdings: end the war inside a company, set a foundation that holds, and bring in whoever it takes to keep it winning.
