Effective supply of companies or skills (feed-in)

Strategic expansion of your company portfolio

„You see things and ask ‘Why?’, but I dream of things and say ‘Why not?’“

George Bernard Shaw, Irish playwright, politician and pacifist (1856-1950)

Many companies take for granted that they have gaps in their portfolio, that they do not have certain skills or that they are not represented in some attractive target markets. Through targeted acquisitions, you can ease competitive situations and strengthen your own negotiating position in markets.

It often requires an external impetus to specifically cover such obvious gaps through company acquisitions or the acquisition of teams (feed-in). To meet expectations, feed-in projects must be strategically planned and carefully executed.

The more clearly the goals to be pursued through company acquisitions are defined, the greater the benefits can be expected. The success of a company acquisition does not only depend on numbers, data and facts, but also largely on the fit of the corporate cultures. The importance of careful preparation and supporting people in this process should not be underestimated.

Your challenge

  • Would you like to grow your company in attractive markets, but cannot achieve the desired growth organically on your own?
  • Would you like to expand your operational capacities?
  • Do you want to achieve scaling effects through volume growth?
  • Would you like to exploit operational synergies?
  • You want to improve operational delivery security (disaster recovery)
  • Do you want to create the conditions to specialize locations?
  • Would you like to improve proximity to sales markets or close gaps in market presence?
  • Would you like to gain access to important technologies or skills?

My offer

Together with my team, I would be happy to accompany you throughout the entire process with the following services:

  • systematic search for relevant business units or locations (targets).
  • contacting the shareholders of attractive units to check the general availability of these targets.
  • support with careful due diligence
  • Support in the negotiation phase up to the conclusion of the contract (signing) and the takeover (closing).
  • If it makes sense and is desired, we will also support you methodically and hands-on with post-merger integration, including well-thought-out communication management (internal and PR).
