BDO Brings Fully Integrated Services to PE Client
In November 2020, a long-term private equity (PE) client acquired a home healthcare company based in the Midwest. Shortly after the acquisition, the PE firm turned to BDO for assistance in preparing its portfolio company for a transformative transaction. BDO went to work learning the company’s needs and bringing the appropriate services to the table.
BDO’s Management Advisory Services (MAS) team stepped in to fill key roles at the company, including Chief Accounting Officer, Controller, and Chief People Officer, and then developed a roadmap to prepare the company for the transaction within 6 months.
BDO offered a suite of fully integrated services to the company. MAS brought together a holistic team which included Business Services & Outsourcing for interim staffing and Accounting Reporting & Advisory Services for lease standard adoption and technical accounting services. The company also engaged BDO’s Risk Advisory Services to perform IT general controls and internal controls and Valuation & Business Analytics to provide healthcare valuation services.
What Differentiated BDO
BDO’s single point of strategic leadership at the C-suite coupled with a deep breadth of services made BDO a valued strategic partner to the PE firm. The MAS team provided both strategic and tactical resources to the company, while simultaneously developing strategic plans and managing execution. BDO was able to develop a plan to adopt Lease Accounting and then execute on the plan to deliver a full operating solution to the company. Similarly, the BDO team crafted solutions for core areas such as procure to pay and payroll and then provided resources to implement and operationalize solutions.
What’s Next
BDO will continue working with the firm as they complete this transaction and support the continued mergers and acquisition growth planned for the company. BDO’s ability to provide targeted solutions and resources to meet the needs of the company is key to the long-term relationship continuing throughout the PE firm’s investment cycle.
