GPI provides acquisition search services to public and private companies and portfolio companies of private equity groups. Our principals have been retained by a variety of strategic acquirers including Fortune 500 companies, high growth Nasdaq companies and middle market private firms. We have executed hundreds of searches in a wide number of industries.
A typical GPI client has a board level mandate to rapidly increase shareholder value through acquisition. Management needs to achieve these goals in the shortest possible time frame but may not have the available staff to execute a structured search. The optimal solution is to leverage management by retaining an experienced, fully-staffed acquisition search firm. The client benefits in that search activities begin immediately, its cost is variable, management is not disrupted from running the day-to-day business, and internal corporate development professionals can focus their valuable time evaluating and closing transactions, not searching for deals.
