Business & Professional Services
People, contracts, scalability
Service businesses are valued on people, client relationships, contract quality and the scalability of delivery.
Our role in the sector
We assess revenue concentration, utilisation, margins and key-person risk, and support growth capital, succession and acquisition transactions.
Delivery and client relationships remain with management.
What we examine
Areas of interest: technical, professional and outsourced service businesses.
- Technical services — engineering, inspection and specialist services with recurring contracts
- Professional firms — advisory and consulting businesses with diversified clients
- Outsourced services — business-process and facility services with scalable delivery
- Succession and consolidation — owner transitions and platform acquisitions
Options we assess
Senior debt from banks and institutions — subject to each lender’s own decision.
Private credit and structured credit where banks step back.
Mezzanine and quasi-equity bridging the funding gap.
Institutional, strategic or co-investment equity, case by case.
