We’ve recently launched MeridianSVP, our business line focused on enterprise readiness for private businesses.
MeridianSVP prepares owner-managed businesses for acquisition, investment, and succession. Owner-managed businesses often face structural gaps that become apparent through an external diligence.
We work with owners and leadership teams to build and maintain the structural condition and readiness of their business ahead of the moments that determine its value. We collaborate with business owners through 3 distinct engagements.
1/ Structural Assessment
A scored evaluation of a business’ enterprise readiness, delivered in 3 weeks with a clear view of the current condition and areas for development.
2/ Enterprise Build
The active implementation of what the Structural Assessment identifies. We work directly with the business to build operational, financial, and organizational infrastructure.
3/ Readiness Index
An annual health check and benchmark that tracks the condition of the business over time, identifying what has improved and what requires attention.
