From first conversation to completion.
Every sale follows the same structured process. No surprises, no ambiguity, and complete confidentiality at every stage.
First Conversation
Everything starts with a confidential chat. We want to understand your situation: why you are considering a sale, your timeline, any concerns. There is no obligation and no pressure. Many of the owners we speak to are simply exploring their options.
Understanding Your Business
We take a detailed look at your operation: your contract book, TUPE workforce, accreditation portfolio (IWFM, ISO, SafeContractor, CHAS), the split between hard FM and soft FM, sector diversification, and financial performance. This helps us understand what makes your business valuable and how to position it to buyers.
Your Valuation
Based on our analysis, we provide a realistic valuation range. We explain the methodology, the comparable transactions, and the factors driving the number. You then decide whether to proceed.
Finding the Right Buyers
We approach our register of pre-qualified buyers: PE-backed platforms building multi-service FM portfolios, national facilities management groups expanding geographically or into new sectors, and trade acquirers looking for specific capability or contracts. We create competitive tension by generating multiple offers.
Completion and Beyond
We manage negotiations, due diligence, and legal coordination through to completion. Most owners stay on for a handover period of 3 to 6 months. Your workforce is protected under TUPE. Your contract holders experience minimal disruption.
