Hello listers - I'm posting this on behalf of a regular lister who wishes to remain anonymous for the time being. His message is below: -----------------------------------------------------------------
If you are an owner or partner in a small Remedy consulting company this may be of interest to you. We are attempting to grow and are exploring our options. Remedy skills are so specialized and niche that it's difficult to grow fast when you are hiring/training consultants. Consequently we are exploring the path of acquiring a small Remedy consulting company. We are also open to purchasing the Remedy division of a regular consulting company that may wish to shift focus to other products or services and no longer do Remedy work. The ideal target for an acquisition would be a smaller Remedy shop - and that is the reason for posting this to the ARS List. We all know the big regional/national partners but I keep meeting people who work for local/regional Remedy consulting companies that no one has heard much from before - either because they are new or because they haven't had the need to get much public attention. These are probably the people we would be the closest match for in the long run. What would you get out of this? You would be joining a growing national BMC/Remedy partner with excellent benefits, etc. And, of course, there is the benefit of having your ownership bought out for a fair market price. We have also always had exceptional employee relations and have had the smallest turnover of any consulting company I am familiar with (3 people in 10 years - the rest are still with us). The actual acquisition would take a look at these factors: 1.) "Goodwill" 2.) Revenue potential 3.) Revenue history 4.) Non-monetary assets including any intellectual property (if applicable) 5.) Debt 6.) Consultant training and certifications Should you be interested in learning more the basic process will be this: 1.) Introduction of the owners to each other an initial discovery to see if the company fits our "basic" match criteria 2.) If interested in proceeding with discovery after initial brief meetings we sign NDA's 3.) Due diligence on our part on financials, company history, etc. 4.) Due diligence on your part on our ability to pay, company history, etc. 5.) An offer will be generated or we will decline to make an offer 6.) You review offer/negotiate/etc 7.) Acceptance and deal closing (or refusal and amicable parting of the ways). This is an American company founded and owned in the US with no offshore/overseas operations. The vast majority of our business takes place in the US with very rare customer visits around the globe. Our primary sectors are Fortune 1000, Federal Government, State government, and the occasional smaller corporate customer. All inquiries will be kept confidential.
