The Abilene Management Group Approach

Internationally, we have earned the trust of venture organizations, large corporations and investors by giving problems senior-level attention; by researching and understanding the facts before drawing conclusions; and by commitment to objectivity. Our multi-phased process can be summarized in three steps: Viability Analysis, Implementation and End Game Scenarios. We accomplish these steps by:

 

  • Deploying a Abilene Management Group SWAT Team
  • Stabilizing the existing management team
  • Rationalizing the mechanics of cash flow
  • Nurturing technology/intellectual property assets
  • Focusing on valuation appreciation, transition and/or liquidation of business assets

 

  Viability      Implementation      End Game

 

Viability Analysis

Solving complex financial and operational problems requires an objectivity and appreciation that must be obtained from intense review of the business fundamentals, including technology and financials, TAM (total available market) verification, and successes to date.  We assess and diagnose the external business environment, competitive position, key success factors, strengths and weaknesses of current management, and achievability of business goals.

Implementation

Working with management of a company, we develop a plan that addresses challenges and opportunities, and builds on the core strengths of the company.  We can 1) focus on strategies to improve P&L/ BS/growth, 2) conduct  product and customer reviews, 3) undertake downsizing and personnel changes, and 4) assume senior operating roles as required. We can assess and fix resource allocation dynamics and initiate aggressive transformation activities. From restructuring to supplementing or supporting existing management teams, the Abilene Management Group brings stability and a fresh, systematic perspective to facilitate action.

 

End Game Scenarios

Delivering results depends on leadership capable of executing the strategic plan. Successful M&A or transformation plans need a focused and experienced effort.  We work to achieve solutions to optimize value for investors through timeline and budgetary adherence, assist in the technology to business process integration, the building of a permanent and stable management team, and forging strategic partner relations.
