Outsourced Corporate Development

We provide corporate development services to larger middle market companies that have a reoccurring need for merger, acquisition and divestiture research, financial analysis, modeling, execution and post-transaction integration services, but cannot afford to divert key employees from their normal responsibilities or cost-justify employing staff to provide these key services.

In this role, we assist management by providing industry landscape assessments and strategic alternative studies in order to thoroughly evaluate merger, acquisition, divestiture and other growth opportunities from a strategic, economic, tax, financial accounting, rating agency, regulatory and governance perspective. We also assist management in successfully executing these opportunities while reducing the risks and uncertainties that usually accompany transactions.

More specifically, we:

• Assist management in identifying key value drivers and challenging assumptions about future performance of target acquisition candidates


• Assist management in identifying business units which should be divested, as well as the best process to use in executing the divestiture


• Suggest processes which improve our clients' negotiating positions, minimize disruptions to ongoing operations and improve the likelihood of closing


• Work with management to minimize value leakage and accelerate transaction value during the post-transaction integration period
