Where this gets hard
PE due diligence runs on a clock most consultancies aren't built for, and the cost of a soft diagnosis isn't a bad recommendation, it's capital committed to a thesis that doesn't hold. We work the way the deal team does: fast, direct, and honest about what we don't yet know.
Ownership is where the real work starts. A hundred-day plan that isn't tied to the specific levers in that specific business is just a template, and it shows up in the numbers by month six. We build value creation plans that are boring, specific, and executable.
