Metal Manufacturing Solutions

Asking Price:  $875,000

Business Description:  This twenty year old consulting firm contracts with manufacturers to go into their customers’ facilities to oversee and help manage how their products are performing.  The role of the Consultants is to solve problems and make manufacturing more efficient. Consultants are independent contractors with specific manufacturing expertise.  They perform services that otherwise would be done by full time employees, keeping the full time employee count down.  The concept has proven to be financially and performance efficient.

Operational Strengths:  The Business serves a niche – required expertise without adding to the permanent employee roster.  Their Consultants have a long history of successful assignments.  Customers have continuing needs and are loyal.

Facility:  The Business can operate from anywhere, office or home office.

Reason for Sale:  The two active Owners will retire after a transition period.

Opportunity:  One of the active Owners is in his 70’s and has reduced activity. The other active Owner manages the Business and has chosen not to aggressively pursue opportunities. Growth is available from the current clients and others in similar industries.

Comments:  This is a solid, proven business model with consistent EBITDA, a great reputation and significant opportunities to grow.  Anyone with a bit of knowledge about operating a service business should have an interest.

The Transaction:  Customer Lists and History, Consultant Contacts, and the Owners’ knowledge are the substance of the Business.
