Mergers & Acquisitions

PROJECT TYPE

RED FLAG / PRE CDD

CLIENT

Private Equity Fund

MAIN CHALLENGE

Lack of deep market insights, knowledge of competitors & KPCs

Situation: A client considered the acquisition of a provider of software solutions for the leisure industry that would have complimented a company in their existing portfolio, focusing on a different geography.

Task: Bell & Holmes was tasked to gather insights into the target’s customers’ perception, benchmarking and its competitors along with key purchasing criteria and regional market outlook.

Actions: The interviews campaign covered a series of questions aimed at gathering the required data.

Result: Despite Covid, our team provided over 40 interviews with customers and potential customers of the target within five days, supporting the client’s eventual decision not to proceed with the acquisition.

Strategy / Market Entry

PROJECT TYPE

STRATEGY / MARKET ENTRY

CLIENT

Private Equity Fund

MAIN CHALLENGE

Lack of Language capabilities

Situation: A boutique consultancy was evaluating the market potential of a new potential innovation by its client. The invention in question was a newly developed material for which a list of various industry applications were to be evaluated.

Task: The client reached out for help in benchmarking the product against what was already available on the market and also evaluating the market potential.

Actions: The first phase focused on benchmarking the new material against those that it might substitute. For this, manufacturers that utilize the established materials were interviewed, focusing on KPI & KPC. In phase two, three industry-product combinations were identified in which the new invention outperformed existing materials.

Phase two subsequently covered potential customers in nine European countries and focused on questions evaluating the market potential and questions related to a possible market entry.

Result: Over the course of the project, the client gathered enough data to formulate e better opinion about the success of launching this product.
