Case Studies
Client
Our client was a firm that was entering new local markets by acquisition of smaller, regional competitors
Assignment
We were tasked to evaluate the relationships the acquisition target had with critical clients within a short time frame prior to deal closing as a part of the due diligence process
Solution
We were able to confirm not only the size of the client relationships, but also able to establish that the acquisition target was the vendor of choice for this service. No other vendors were used unless the customer was doing business outside their service area. In addition, we were able to locate an additional large client that hadn’t been disclosed, who was equally pleased with the vendor. We were able to identify employees of the target who were critical to retaining key customer accounts.
Client
An environmental services company wanted to better understand the Recycled Fuel Oil (RFO) market.
Assignment
They needed guidance on determining the potential customers, competitors, and pricing in various geographic markets.
Solution
We performed research and analysis that provided insight into customers,
pricing, competition, and potential mar¬ket that helped this client formulate effective strategies on how to compete better in this marketplace.
Client
An industrial services company needed to develop an understanding of market opportunities in the retail business sector.
Assignment
We were commissioned to study the stream of toxic waste generated by retail operations.
Solution
Through a combination of primary and secondary sources including on site interviews and observation, we were able to provide the client with an analysis of various retailers’ toxic waste policies and levels of internal compliance. This helped the client develop effective strategies to approach potential clients.
