Corporate Transformation & Reorganisation

Our team are experienced in conducting strategic international reviews and understand the market and business dynamics in key industries. We know the right questions to ask and can support management during this period of commercial transformation and change.  

It is important from the outset to understand the driving forces behind a corporate reorganisation or consolidation, which could include a number of commercial motivations:

• Improve performance –improve performance through operational efficiency, improved operating profits and reduced overheads. 
• Remove Excess capacity – a focus on quality rather than quantity leading to consolidation and/or divestments of part of the business.
• Consolidation – if an organisation has a fragmented or complex corporate structure it may decide to simplify and consolidate its branches, subsidiaries and assets to achieve economies of scale.
