You have become an expert at running and growing your business, to a certain size--and now you are ready to take another big step, a step that involves a "step-change" in scale and scope. As practitioners and operating managers we've worked in large and small organizations to accomplish growth, transition/succession, and design/construction. The experts at MMG can help.
Business expansion and transition projects - construction, succession planning, divestitures and acquisitions - all share one common characteristic: These activities require teams of specialized professionals working in concert, harmoniously and in alignment, to produce valuable business results.
Most business owner/ operator/ managers face these kinds of "discontinuous" growth/ transition events only a few times in the life of their business. Most operating companies and organizations are not normally engaged in the expansion, acquisition or divestiture businesses. Retaining the various professional experts needed to optimize these types of complex projects can be expensive--and although current (employed or contract) company resources may be able to do some of the work, they may not be the best choice for specific tasks, or for assembling/ coordinating the specialized portfolio of capabilities best suited to deliver needed business results.
Companies that either try to internally juggle a large project or merely bid the work out to the lowest bid often get poor results and create scenarios and outcomes non-optimal for the owner's interests.
A company taking on a relatively small new construction project is faced with challenges in design, permitting, financing and construction along with the complexity of project management. Bad projects with their cost and schedule over-runs have gotten so much attention that many people assume that they can have no faith in a construction budget or schedule.
Even modest projects command deep expertise in many bodies of subject matter expertise, when the architects, engineers of various disciplines, construction cost estimators and construction management people are all assembled.
