Strategy & Corporate Finance

Even the best product needs a strong capture strategy to guarantee its success. By helping clients assess when to bid, how to price, and how to structure their business-development operations, we can increase the likelihood of winning market share.

With budgets tightening, A&D companies want to optimize working capital and increase available cash. In cooperation with experts from our Strategy and Corporate Finance Practice, we guide them through this process.

Margin expansion is critical, especially in competitive industries such as A&D, but it sometimes gets overlooked in the push for growth. Working with companies, we evaluate operating models and identify strategies for building leaner cost structures—for instance, by considering options to streamline corporate function support.

We help companies accelerate their growth strategies by taking a comprehensive look at opportunities—both organic and inorganic—in their core business and adjacent markets. By balancing risks with potential gains, we identify the big moves required to accelerate value creation.

Through our independent assessments, we help businesses, private-equity firms, and other industry stakeholders understand critical markets, including the size of the opportunity, growth prospects, and competitive forces. Our insights give clients a fact-based perspective on the market, including recent trends and the impact of new technologies.

With markets shifting—and sometimes taking unexpected twists—even the most effective portfolio strategy may become obsolete. With our guidance, clients can rebalance their portfolios and adjust their investment strategy, doubling down in some areas and retreating in others.
