In the case of the sale or acquisition of an underperforming asset, we mobilize various techniques of a legal, operational or financial nature.

Insolvency & Liquidation

Insolvency Services - We support our clients throughout their collective insolvency proceedings, helping them prepare and manage everything from insolvency notices and operating and cash flow forecasts to business, backup, recovery and disposal plans.

CRO Office

Role of CRO office – We set up a “crisis unit” with a team spanning all functions (operations, purchasing, legal, HR, finance, etc.). In a limited timeframe, we develop an action plan to restore your company’s financial and operational health with local teams to ensure mobilisation.

We set up a tight, action-oriented governance including recurring working meetings and alignment with function managers.

Our approach is based on short decision loops based on regular short and productive sessions with senior managers. Finally, we build a financial model that takes into account the impact of revenue and cost trends to help senior management make the right decisions.

Our Chief Restructuring Office Support

A recovery plan is a process to preserve value. It follows a pragmatic, cooperative and holistic approach. With proven experience, we rely on 3 pillars that guarantee fast, thorough and sustainable results.

Speed is of the essence!

Permanent restructuring can risk dissipating the remaining strength needed for the turnaround plan. We help you establish a sense of urgency to eliminate decision-making bottlenecks, reduce timeframes and promote the rapid implementation of solutions.

Hands-on action

We guarantee success by helping you apply the 80/20 rule, analyse key indicators, develop strategy, and act accordingly, empowering leaders, and clearly defining roles, such as the CRO, programme manager, and so on.

Accountability

We help you create an action-driven environment, put experienced and determined implementers in charge, and define and assume accountability for outcomes.
