Featured engagement

Multi-brand multi-unit platform

Roughly $550M in system revenue across more than 900 locations

PE-sponsorBig-4 auditedBoard-reported

Multi-year

Outcome

A multi-year value creation program delivered +370 bps of gross margin and +25% EBITDA over two years. The monthly close runs in five days instead of twenty-eight, with a ~$2M EBITDA run-rate benefit attached. Liquidity forecasts hold within 3% across a thirteen-week window. The platform stood up its first enterprise data warehouse and migrated analytics off legacy infrastructure. AI-assisted automation removed the manual workload that had been pulling analysts away from higher-value insight. Three consecutive clean audits closed out a history of material weaknesses. M&A continued in parallel, with diligence run on twenty transactions and more than sixty acquired units.
