private equity Consulting
“It’s clear to me when you do private equity well, you’re making companies more efficient and helping them grow and become more profitable. That success means our investors – such as public pension funds – benefit, which contributes to the economic wealth of society.”
– David Rubenstein
The Focus
Businesses that are undervalued where:
- The business hasn’t been aggressively managed and is underperforming or its potential isn’t readily apparent
- The Private Equity Group can take outright ownership and control
- The value can be uplifted in 2 to 6 years and the business can be sold
The Problem
Besides financial and governance engineering, sources that add value to the acquired firm include:
- Increasing revenue
- Additional acquisitions
- Reducing costs
A firm that hasn’t been aggressively managed will generally have weak processes, lack transactional and operational standards, have low asset effectiveness and underachieving supply chain management. Business value adding undertakings can severely stress or cripple the vestiges of the underperforming enterprise and cause the time for value creation and realization to be unnecessarily dragged out with lower returns.
The Solution
Surgical, focused intervention that includes skills transfer for sustenance and organic continuation. Private Equity Groups are lean and aggressive organizations by design, SBTI supplies the short-term experienced bandwidth to change specific underperforming areas and boost the income statement and balance sheet:
- Create effective, standardized processes
- Develop primary management accountability and feedback systems
- Rationalize and increase asset effectiveness and maintenance
- Improve supply chain reaction and performance
How Can We Help?
SBTI provided project management to move a factory resulting in a seven-figure cash infusion from the asset sale, lower piece part production costs and increased customer service.
