Private equity firms know well that dealmaking in today’s market environment is more challenging than it was just a few years ago. They need to take a value-driven approach to the due diligence process, and once a deal is executed, private equity firms must immediately implement a plan to support the portfolio company to ensure a successful post-close transition.
In the Colorado market and beyond, TGRP’s consulting team is the partner of choice for PE firms and their portfolio companies. If your PE firm needs occasional or ongoing help to make your deals a win, our fractional services are an excellent solution. Here’s an overview of TGRP’s end-to-end private equity services:
Due diligence – Avoid surprises with independent validation of your investment decisions. TGRP’s M&A/due diligence services focus on reducing private equity firms’ risk and maximizing value. We collaborate with PE firms and bring industry expertise to the relationship. Our goal is to help firms make good decisions, identify value creation opportunities in their acquired companies, and guide their portfolio companies toward long-term growth.
Post-close transition – The period after close is critical to a successful acquisition, and TGRP’s team is here to help. We work with companies’ management teams to establish best practices for financial reporting that meets private equity firms’ expectations. Also, TGRP’s consultants are experienced with evaluating newly acquired companies’ systems, data management, recordkeeping, and operations and establishing a plan to make improvements.
Integration support – For private equity firms taking a buy-and-build approach to growing a portfolio company by making multiple add-on acquisitions, TGRP offers support on the integration side. We work with the private equity firm and core platform company to create an Accounting And Finance Integration Playbook that serves as a framework for success, from due diligence to post integration.
Alignment of teams – Acquisitions can and do fail when private equity buyers dive headfirst into executing growth initiatives before they fully understand the inner workings, strengths, challenges, and needs of a portfolio company. TGRP consultants can serve as liaisons between PE companies and portfolio company management teams. We’ll help your firm establish a strong working relationship, which makes it easier to execute strategic initiatives.
Operational improvement and strategic growth – Your firm wants to turn every acquisition into a home run, of course, which makes the post-acquisition period especially important. Private equity firms lean on TGRP consultants to support implementing operational improvements, creating value, and establishing a plan for growth. That support might include the following:
- Reducing costs, improving cash flow, improving profitability
- Achieving operational efficiencies
- Tech optimization and process automation improve recordkeeping and reporting systems
- Financial close and accounting process improvement
- Financial planning and analysis support:
- Key performance indicator dashboards
- Budgeting/forecasting
- Financial modeling
