Industries in Focus

Industrial services, manufacturing, distribution, healthcare services, and tech-enabled B2B operations. Our expertise spans multiple sectors, but we're particularly drawn to businesses with complex operational requirements where our experience can drive meaningful improvement.

The Amalgam Playbook: Creating Measurable Value

Our approach to value creation is systematic and proven, leveraging SLKone's data-driven methodologies to identify and execute operational improvements:

1

Operational Assessment & Strategy

We comprehensively review operations, market position, and growth opportunities. Using SLKone's proprietary frameworks, we analyze:

  • Supply chain and production flows
  • Product mix and customer profitability
  • Sales effectiveness and pricing strategies
  • Organizational structure and talent gaps
  • Cash flow cycles and working capital optimization

This assessment forms the foundation of a 100-day plan and long-term value creation roadmap.

2

Execution with Impact

Our team doesn't just recommend changes – we implement them alongside management, focusing on high-impact areas like:

Supply Chain Redesign

At an electrification manufacturer, we reduced lead times by 30-50% and improved gross margins by 1% through optimized sourcing lanes and SIOP process improvements

Manufacturing Efficiency

For a $75M plastics packager, we reconfigured shop-floor layouts and rationalized low-margin SKUs, delivering a 20%+ profitability improvement

Long-term Strategy Enablement

For a $100M healthcare organization, developed and supported the implementation of a roadmap, including organic and inorganic (acquisitions) doubling of the business

Strategic Repositioning

Our work with a $150M pharmaceutical division identified a 50% EBITDA upside through cost modeling and site consolidation

Sustainable Growth

With a stabilized operational foundation, we focus on accelerating growth through:

  • Strategic add-on acquisitions (as demonstrated with MechanAir)
  • Technology modernization and digital transformation
  • New market entry and customer diversification
  • Talent development and incentive alignment

Throughout this process, we maintain the unique culture and customer relationships that made the business successful in the first place.
