Hello Searchfunders, I'm looking for investors familiar with not only GovCon but some of the set-aside contracts associated with being an SDVOSB and 8(a) firm. The target has signed my LOI, and I'm heading towards closing. I'm seeking investors that know the space and understand the complexities of equity ownership with these certifications. I have a structure outlined that will work, but I'd like more capital infused with experience in the space. The acquisition is currently selling in a 100% commercial environment now. After the close, the goal would be to learn all of the clients, and employees, then begin to route the certifications for SDVOSB and 8(a) status. I look forward to partnering with organizations in the healthcare, construction, or technology space to create joint ventures that we can both benefit from. From what we have studied in the GovCon space, this is not a prime target for being a Prime contractor but an excellent target for teaming agreements. And as a manufacturer, our NAICS Code limit is not based on revenues but the headcount of people in the organization.
I'm open to any ideas, and thanks for listening.
I also want to take this time to tell you that I’m not done in the slightest. I’m amazed at how much I have learned and how many opportunities there are in the world of small business M&A. I have used all of my best faculties on this journey, and it brought me joy to be fully engaged in a complex project. It even introduced me to wonderful people like yourself in the SearchFunder community. I can’t wait to dust myself off and get back on that ride again. In the famous words of Arnold Schwarzenegger, “I’ll be back!” If you know of any opportunities that may be a good match for me as a 25-year engineering and sales management submarine veteran from a swank MBA school, please feel free to reach out to me and chat.
