Developing an effective carve-out plan is key — and PE firms often need to kick-start the process far before putting pen to paper. It is critical for PE firms to begin evaluating strategic partners during the due diligence phase, with an eye towards securing the best talent to execute the separation. Often talent with experience in orchestrating carve-outs and other M&A activities is essential for driving value in the face many complexities. It's difficult to overstate the value of having prior experience at the wheel.
I am an independent consultant specialising in Post-Merger-Integration, Carve-Out, IT Due Diligence, and PE Portfolio Performance Improvement Programs.
On the one hand, I bring expertise in advising CXOs, but I'm also able to roll my sleeves up and work across project teams in Consulting Type Engagements, offering more than a typical Management Consultant does.
There are limited consultants in the space with end to end knowledge in Carve-Out, PMI, IT DD and Portfolio Improvement projects. PE Operating Teams value independent expertise with these all-round capabilities who can flex style to advise CXOs/PE Investors and at the same time can do hands-on work where needed.
