Project SAFA
Company Description & Background
———————————————-
“SAFA” is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of a large international technical services and research company. The firm has been in business since 2002 and has delivered 200+ engagements to clients helping organizations engineer alignment and action at defining moments. Annual revenues are $3-5M a year in contrast to the corporate parent ~$1 billon revenues/yr. The original founders of the firm are still with the organization and are recognized and published experts in using a proprietary formula to solve complex problems. The proprietary approach, grounded in systems science, has been used to get large teams unstuck, aligned, and on a clear path to meeting key objectives in a remarkably short period of time.
Transaction Descriptions & Process
———————————————
Recently, the parent company has changed corporate strategy while the principals of SAFA have adapted their business model to enable a virtual delivery model post-COVID. The principals of the firm are looking to build on its recent success in delivering virtual engagements and develop its platform as a remote workforce collaboration system to solve complex problems at scale.
The management team of SAFA is seeking an equity or strategic partner to accelerate its pivot to a deep collaboration technology enabled services provider & support its long-term growth strategy.
The parent is supportive and assumes any transaction will be a change of control (majority recapitalization, 100% acquisition, etc.).
The parent plans to launch the process in March 2021 and is open to working with advisors experienced in high end consulting services and remote workforce collaboration tools.
