“You don’t get paid for the hour. You get paid for the value you bring.”

Jim Rohn

Pre-Acquisition Due Diligence

  • Remote or on-site operational reviews at short notice (its always at short notice).
  • Coordination and report out of other operational experts: EH&S, IT, Environmental.
  • Identification of value creation opportunities and risks.
  • Assisting the deal team in developing its investor thesis.

100 Day on-boarding

  • Preparation of robust 100 day plans.
  • Execution of operational on-boarding.
  • Frank, honest feedback to management and sponsor.
  • Timely course corrections.

Value Creation Plans

  • Assisting deal teams with initial Investment thesis.
  • Helping management teams own that thesis and create their own Value Creation Plan.
  • Best in class Value Creation Plan template.
  • Candid, constructive guidance as reality unfolds.

Project Management of platform add-ons

  • If you are building a platform, you probably don’t have the resource to execute the first add-on.
  • Especially as they never happen at the right moment for management.
  • As they said in the Navy “Perfect prior preparation prevents p*&% poor performance”.
  • Can step in as full time project planner and manager until management has the bandwidth to take over.

Portfolio wide programs

  • Development and coordination of portfolio wide programs.
  • Such as EH&S, CSR, Import/Export Compliance.

Exit Preparation

  • Aligning strategic plans with exit options.
  • Assisting management and deal teams with the inevitable tidy up projects.
  • “On the day” close assistance.
