Operational Value Creation
Whether the focus of the acquisition is buy-to-sell, buy-to-grow or buy-to-kill, our operating partners are hired to accelerate value creation.
Main functions include:
-
Ensure businesses stay on track post-acquisition, with everyone working toward a successful exit.
-
Balance cost-cutting and revenue growth initiatives to accelerate IRR.
-
Detect early warning signs of business performance deviating from the investment case and promptly take appropriate recovery actions.
-
Create value beyond the investment case.
-
Strike a balance between support and challenge, develop a more active ownership approach, and interact with management teams and investors to ensure transparency of performance, clarity of decision making, and ultimately higher exit returns.
Where We Excel
-
Simplicity and Clarity: We understand what needs to be done. We outline a simple strategy and mobilize teams.
-
Gumption: Getting things done and adding muscle where needed.
-
Accountability: Taking ownership of problems and their solutions.
-
Focus: Knowing what to ignore and what to address. We recognize that the portfolio leadership team has finite bandwidth.
