Strategic Planning is a Process that incorporates a number of important steps:

• Assessment of the External Environment
• Evaluation of Internal Conditions within the organization
• Determination of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats
• Development of a common Mission and Vision for the future
• Formulation of Strategic Options
• Formalization and Finalization of the Strategy(s)
• Organization Agreements on: Goals; Tactics; Projections; Financial Plans; Organization Structure; Responsibilities; and a formal Timeline
• Finalization of the Strategic Plan in a Written Document
• Communication to the Organization and Other Key Stakeholders

Acquisitions - Buy Side

When undertaking Buy Side assignments, a detailed plan is developed to define company objectives;

a search is undertaken for available companies in the defined market segment(s); lists of potential candidates are organized; communication with candidates; letters of interest are developed;

valuation of selected company(s); due diligence management is undertaken; negotiations; and work

with buyer accountants and attorneys.  In addition, as required, post acquisition integration

assistance is provided.

Divestitures - Sell Side

When Sell Side Assignments are undertaken, a detailed profile of the client company is developed,

often referred to as “the book”; a search is initiated for buyers in the defined market segment(s);

lists of potential candidates are developed; communication with potential candidates is conducted;

letters of interest are reviewed; due diligence process management; negotiations; and work with

seller accountants and attorneys.

HGB Partners has had numerous type and size companies as clients over time.  Although we can work with

most any size or type of company, specific industry experience has included packaging, foodservice, and

wholesale distribution.
