What We Stand For
We Listen And Build Trust
Everything we do is guided by our unwavering commitment to underwrite our clients' business success. We believe the foundation of engaging with our clients is trust, reliability, integrity, and honesty. This is why we listen all along the way to what is on our clients' mind, and then provide consistent positive experiences and agreed business outcomes. Furthermore, we are guided by a sincere desire to get the job done for our clients and by "holding our client's back" at all times.
We Act With Transparency
In everything we do we strive to be honest, trustworthy, and reliable. Our authority and expertise along with our unravelled integrity, professional ethics and competence are at the heart of our activities. In our field of work, information asymmetry is common, and we do all we can to remove it, so clients know from the outset what outcomes we can bring, and how, and what business upside we can deliver. We never engage if we think we cannot deliver on our promise.
We Seek Maximum ROI
Return on investment is a financial metric used to measure the profitability of an investment. When addressing our clients' business problems, we take upon ourselves to find and to deliver solutions with maximum benefit (or ROI) and quickest possible payback while minimizing risks, considering market environment and opportunity costs. In doing so, we don't cut corners, but partner with our clients, research their business and its financials, and deploy the best tools and expertise.

Interim Management And Finance Solutions

SaaS Financial Accelerator
The global Software as a Service (SaaS) market size is projected to grow from $250 billion in 2022 to $880 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 19.7%. It is not surprising that many businesses are attracted to this market, not only because of its growing size but also very high profitability relative to traditional “brick” businesses. Despite the immense profit potential of the SaaS model, its execution is notoriously difficult and thus success is not guaranteed. The underlying reasons often have to do with SaaS business’ inability to properly manage its financial performance through different stages of the SaaS business life-cycle. We help overcome this challenge through the deployment of our proprietary 5-Pillar SaaS Financial Framework, focusing on Growth, Retention, Gross Margins, Profitability and Sales Efficiency. Our approach is holistic, as we deliver not only a world-class SaaS financial model but do so within a project & change management framework which increases exponentially the commercial and financial opportunity available to your SaaS business while minimizing disruption to your organization.
Interim Financial Management
Whether a business is a large corporation, a start-up, a scale-up, or whether it is a not-for-profit organization, there are times when it needs expert help, without delay. Our professional interim manager we can step in and be very effective in resolving business and finance problems or help seize business opportunities, whether this is due to a change in direction, climbing out of a “hole”, invigorating business growth or dealing with an unexpected or special situation. Whether managing a financial crisis, delivering a critical project, facing a crunch in the supply chain or operations, facing the need to restructure, or simply lacking in-house capability to drive business growth, your business can benefit from our interim management solution to meet your critical and immediate business needs.
Merges & Acquisitions Support
M&A Advisory - Sell Side
We help companies exit their business or sell part of it to finance future growth. Our sell-side advisory services can support you with business succession, managing stranded cost, carving out part of your business, and increasing overall deal value while enhancing your business’ credibility in the deal and minimizing disruption brought by it. Our services include selecting of a suitable M&A strategy, preparing your business for sale, tuning your financials to maximize sell value, preparing compelling marketing material, long-listing and approaching target investors, reviewing incoming preliminary offers, shortlisting most attractive potential buyers, coordinating due diligence, negotiating final sales contract, seeking most favourable terms and conditions, and handling all closing procedures.
M&A Advisory - Buy Side
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) bring together companies through complete changes in ownership, and they have been used by companies for centuries and remain a major way to expand business rapidly. The main advantages of M&A transactions include business extension, building new business capabilities, increasing market power, increasing operational efficiencies, improving financial performance and optimizing its tax position. We help our clients define a successful M&A strategy, identify target companies, build a business case and financing modelling, find and approach targets, conduct due diligence, negotiate the deal and execute the transaction, and conduct successful post-merger integration to ensure the company reaches its cost and revenue synergy targets.
Post-Merger Integration
Conducting a post-merger integration following a merger or acquisition is an immensely challenging task. To ensure the company reaches its cost and revenue synergy targets, and to increase the value creation of your M&A deal, we offer a simple and comprehensive 3-phase approach that focuses on integration strategy, detailed integration planning, and on rigorous implementation and monitoring of the business integration. For the integration of two businesses to be successful, it needs a plan and the right skills to ensure that change occurs at both the executive level and among the delivery team. We treat thus each business integration as a project with appropriate governance, resourcing, scope definition, and the optimal business set up that converts the opportunity into success.
Operational Excellence & Governance Solutions
Operations & SCM Advisory
Getting products and service from the supplier to the end customer involves a very complex set of activities and relationships required to design, source, produce, and deliver a product or service. And a well-managed supply chain is critical to ensure that products are delivered on time, at the right quality, and at the lowest possible cost. We help businesses optimize their supply chain and manufacturing activities through a comprehensive framework that focuses on improving your supply chain management strategic capabilities, improving your organizational performance by simplifying processes and their reliability using lean six sigma and DMAIC methodology, applying business process management (BPM) to implement or optimize specific business processes, among many other things.
Project/Change Management
We help you create a holistic approach within your organization that tackles both project management and change management simultaneously. We believe that one should not come without the other. On one hand, project management focuses on defining and implementing projects that will change your organization's structure, job roles, processes, and systems. On the other hand, change management focuses on helping individuals impacted by these changes to adapt and be successful. Far too often, we have noticed that many companies underestimate the importance of change management. The main problem is that if the employees and managers in your organization do not adopt and embrace the new changes, your projects will rarely achieve their expected return on investment.

Our Independent Board Membership Services provide organizations with highly qualified board members who bring fresh, objective perspectives and versatile industry experience to the boardroom. Our board members offer strategic guidance, ensure compliance with best practices in corporate governance, identify and mitigate risks, and provide expert financial oversight.

I had the privilege and the pleasure to work with Natalia Meissner between 2021 and 2023 when she was the CFO of Eaton’s Energy Transition, Digital and Services division. Natalia is a very reliable and business-driven finance executive, continually looking for pragmatic solutions to serve the teams. On top of the daily business, Natalia was also in charge of the financial integration of two of my companies, Green Motion and Evpass, which had been acquired by Eaton at that time. I also underline Natalia’s great people management skills.
