Private Equity Consulting
The composite expert consultants at BHC Associates create value for private equity companies working in the plastics manufacturing industry in many ways. Private equity firms evaluating acquisitions or mergers often see strong value in our team of technical professionals because we bring fast, practical clarity to complex manufacturing risks and opportunities. As a manufacturing technology services company, our manufacturing support capabilities are highly complementary to private equity companies that have their own practices for rationalization of operations, balance sheet restructuring, or implementing new sales strategies.
Discussions often start first with due diligence inspections. Our team can assess the true condition and capability of composite manufacturing assets. Well-maintained or upgrade-ready equipment is a pure asset while equipment may also require capital expenditure or bring with it output, quality, or versatility limitations. We can also provide independent, data-driven evaluations of upgrading concepts involving process efficiency, throughput potential, and scrap reduction. This includes helping investors validate upside cases, EBITDA improvement plans, and post-close value-creation roadmaps with technical credibility. Finally, our experts understand the products, the raw materials, the supporting infrastructure, and other tradeoffs specific to composite manufacturing resulting in well informed evaluation of a target’s equipment, technology, and know-how can realistically support growth, margin expansion, or platform-level synergies after the transaction closes. Our technical assessment feeds into a strategic capital equipment plan and all of the tactical decisions and implementation work that follows. These capabilities are just as useful for the renovation of stand alone manufacturing companies as they are to efforts which combine multiple manufacturing organizations or rationalize multiple manufacturing locations.
