PE-backed power tools manufacturer

Integration at speed

30%European G&A cost saving

Based in Asia, this PE-backed power tools manufacturer had acquired a European business. As a result, integration of the HQ and back-office functions was required across both continents. The engagement focused on operating model design, headcount reduction, and tactical digital deployments, for example to improve payables and receivables processes, driving efficiency and improved working capital and cash management. It delivered a 30% cost saving against the European G&A cost base.
