Business Sale - Industrial Engineering
We were commissioned to support the sale of a well-established industrial manufacturer in central England during COVID-19 lockdown controls and to expedited transaction timeframes.
We performed environmental due diligence on the business including:
- A site inspection to observe current manufacturing practices and site features
- Identification of areas of weakness in relation to environmental practice
- Identification of environmental compliance status and required improvements
- Provision of advice on possible improvements to make the sale of the business more attractive to a buyer from an environmental perspective
In addition, we reviewed corporate environmental procedures, practices, policies and records to identify possible red-flag areas where a potential purchaser could seek to revise their offer.

Solution
Through adapting our robust H&S practices and risk assessments, our approach allowed the rapid assembly of a team and for the project to be completed within the timescales specified by the client, permitting discussions to be held with prospective purchasers.
