100-day plan
The potential, quick wins and quick fixes identified in the course of due diligence must be implemented. With our 100-day plan, we develop a roadmap of processes and structures for your target, which makes the exploitation of the potential – or the implementation of quick wins/fixes – as effective and efficient as possible.

Full Value Creation Plan and Execution
As part of a complete consulting project, we support you in the actual exploitation of the potential previously identified in a due diligence.
Our core competencies here are the creation of digital strategies and the operative implementation of digitization projects. This can range from building up reach, generating leads, managing e-commerce or customer relations to business planning or the design of minimum viable products.
Already in 70% of the cases our clients from the M&A sector make use of our services in this area.

Add-on Acquisitions
You already own a company in a specific market and would like to complement this company with a suitable add-on? Or do you manage a company yourself and see potential or synergies that you could realize together with an add-on?
We support you in your search for a suitable investment that meets all criteria and offers the perfect complement for your purposes.

Target Pitch for PEs
Whereas companies were dependent on the favour of a single investor in the past, they can nowadays often choose from a large number of potential investors. This puts them in a position to choose precisely the investor who best meets their requirements. In such cases, the decisive factor is not the amount of the investment sum, but rather the question of the added value that an investor can offer the target company. This includes, among other things, the network of the potential investor, industry-specific activities as well as specialist expertise.
It is our task to present the target companies in a structured and individually tailored manner with the advantages they will experience with you as investors. We represent you professionally and analytically and make sure that your target has all the critical information it needs to evaluate you appropriately in its decision-making process. We work with you to develop a specific strength profile for the acquisition in question, which must then be continuously emphasized – for example, in management presentations.
