For the strategic acquirer

Corporate development

is a full-time job.

You already know acquisition is the fastest path to the growth you want. What you're missing is a team whose full-time job is finding, qualifying, and closing the right ones.

The problem

Most acquisitions stall inside the acquirer.

The CEO or Head of Strategy is running the business. Inorganic growth becomes a side project. Bankers send teasers, most of which do not fit, and the ones that do arrive already shopped.

By the time a target reaches the table it has been vetted by ten other buyers. You lose on price, or you lose on speed, or you never see the deal at all.

The alternative (hiring a Head of Corp Dev, two analysts, a paralegal, and an integration lead) is real headcount, six figures each, and a year to ramp.

What you get

A full corp dev bench, on a fixed engagement.

01

Thesis and pipeline.

We work with you to sharpen the acquisition thesis, then run proprietary outreach against a defined universe of targets, not a list of what's on the market.

02

Qualification and diligence.

Every conversation is filtered through your economic and strategic criteria before it reaches you. When a target arrives, it is real, ranked, and ready.

03

Execution to close.

Valuation, structure, LOI, diligence coordination, and negotiation. We stay in the room through signing and hand off cleanly to integration.
