Crisis ridden enterprises need a strong decision maker and leader to implement the necessary steps. Changes in market conditions are often recognized too late by the company’s management. Crisis management requires the examination of the strategy and the consequential profit plan development. New business models will be created and management needs to take extraordinary measures. Critical questions have to be answered:

• Do existing business units generate enough profit?
• What should happen to unproductive or non profitable units?
• How can we strengthen our financial power (liquidity, cash flow)?
• In which segments should we invest in the future?

By our set of M & A-measures profitable changes can be reached fast and successfully:

• The investigation of acquisitions, mergers or company sales
• Spin off or spin on of business units, products or production facilities
• Building up an industry concept or a common production platform
• Buy and build-strategies or cooperations in marketing and distribution
