Our Mission
Our mission is to develop and implement pragmatic process and technology solutions that enhance portfolio company operational and fiscal performance leading to higher enterprise valuation, maximizing Private Equity returns throughout the ownership lifecycle.
We are not your typical consultants. The way in which we go about our business is a key differentiator for PIP, and we will never stray from the principles we were founded upon.
Our Values
Doing What is Right for our Client, 100% of the Time
Our core values dictate that our clients always come first, regardless of the financial impact to our firm. We strive to build trusting, long-term relationships with our clients instead of just one-off engagements, resulting in a unique relationship that is mutually beneficial for both our clients and our firm.
Exclusive Private Equity Industry Focus
We know your business. For almost a decade we have had worked exclusively with Private Equity firms and their portfolio companies, so our work is always carried out with your best interests and potential exit strategy in mind, benefiting both Private Equity firm and their portfolio companies. PIP lowers the risk information technology poses to portfolio companies.
Accountability & Integrity
PIP’s business model is dependent on long-term relationships with our clients, thus our values can never, ever be compromised. PIP always recommends only what is appropriate, knowing that if we produce great work, more business is likely to follow.
Pragmatic, Effective, Efficient Process
PIP is brutally pragmatic. We recommend proven solutions, which minimize implementation risk and provide exceptional value.
Present Multiple Options & Limit Project Scope
We will present you with the facts and all the options, and give you the tools and assistance to make the correct decisions. We deliver only what is appropriate for each portfolio company’s needs; not every business needs a Ferrari to be successful. We believe making existing technology work more effectively to meet highest priority needs is often a better solution than a complete IT overhaul.
Set Realistic Expectations & Provide Candid, Honest Analysis
We determine “up front” if a project can be successful and implemented in a timely fashion. We want your investment to be successful, so during an engagement, we state the facts as accurately as we know and as we see them, regardless of client bias. No sugar coating here and no complicated “consultant speak”.
Leverage the Internal Organization & Make Clients Self Sufficient
At portfolio companies, our goal is to work in partnership with the existing organization, not in place of them. By involving the IT organization throughout the engagement process, we aim to leave behind an adequately prepared IT function capable of effectively carrying forward our work on their own.
Documented Experience, Reliability and Attention to Detail
We always deliver what we promise and strive to exceed expectations. PIP has successfully completed over 700 due diligence and implementation projects in over 30 industry sectors during the last several years. We are the “go to” IT consulting firm for the vast majority of our clients and are consistently told by our clients that the level of detail of our work is vastly superior to what they have seen from our competitors.
Knowledgeable, Veteran Business People
We are senior business & operations people with a proven track record; who are experts in technology. We have sat in the seat of the CIO, CTO, COO, CFO and CEO, and simply know how to leverage technology to improve business operations, enabling the entire organization to run more effectively and profitably.
