MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS
SCALA helps UK and global businesses to greatly minimise the business risk associated with mergers and acquisitions (M&A). We offer a Due Diligence approach that identifies and quantifies improvement opportunities and ensures supply chains are resilient and fit for purpose in an environment of ever-developing markets and changing social behaviours.
Supply Chain often makes up a large percentage of company costs and our Due Diligence service covers:
- Raw Material and Component Sourcing
- Manufacturing
- Shipping & Transportation
- Warehousing
- Inventory Stockholding
- Customer Delivery
- Cross company supply chain synergy
Post-acquisition, we can help businesses gain from increased profits, better-optimised end-to-end systems and contractual procedures, product and supply benefits, as well as ensuring continuous improvement and achieving best practice, scale and synergy benefits
SCALA has assisted numerous Private Equity and other companies involved in M&A across a number of sectors, such as manufacturing, retail and medical services. Over our 20-year history this has included optimising sourcing arrangements, relocating manufacturing, implementing improved supply chain management, routes to market and optimised logistics networks.
Given the challenges presented by business and geo-political uncertainties, our Supply Chain Due Diligence service offers our clients a reliable way to mitigate the risks involved with M&A and to maximise the potential opportunities. As a result we are able to provide companies with clear assessments and quantifications of the synergy benefits and an optimal supply chain that supports the business strategy and potential future scenarios whilst also addressing the practical realities, the challenges to be faced and timescales involved.
