Private Equity Programs

Improving EBITDA by an average of 10-30%.


ISG works with over 25 Private Equity firms and hundreds of projects with portfolio companies. We were an early pioneer in the application of Fortune 500 Strategic Sourcing best practices in a Private Equity environment. We aggregate common expenditures across the portfolio for 15-35% cost reduction, and we work with individual portfolio companies to drive significant EBITDA improvements for company-specific spend.

Few match our ability to drive collaboration and support among portfolio executives. Unlike many large consulting firms, our fee structure is flexible and we often work on a Performance Basis where fees are a percentage of savings. Above all, we understand the mid-market and how to work effectively with your often thinly stretched management teams.

Beyond Strategic Sourcing, our Private Equity offerings include:

  • Cross-Portfolio Spend Analysis designed to identify opportunities and gain buy-in.
  • Pre-Acquisition Due Diligence providing solid post-acquisition savings projections before you buy.
  • Post-Acquisition On-boarding / Merger Integration capturing synergies from acquisitions or add-ons in a matter of weeks.
  • Our World Class Office Supplies Consortium, a no-cost quick hit.
