Deal Rationale

For the sellers, the deal provided full liquidity to exit the business and establish a succession plan.

For Atturra, it allowed them to expand their capabilities by integrating an advisory business into their traditional IT services model, enhancing their overall service offering.

SCD Approach

Exent engaged SCD for advisory services due to our deep knowledge of the digital transformation and consulting landscape, as well as a sell readiness workshop (“prep4sale”) completed 2 years prior. SCD was tasked with finding an acquirer that provided both strategic growth opportunities and cultural alignment, with a primary objective of liquidity for the founder. SCD led the preparation and execution phases, focusing on acquirers that fit Exent’s strategic goals.

SCD Value Add

SCD’s previous “prep4sale” assessment allowed for a quicker process, while our strong relationship with Atturra, having completed a prior deal with them, helped facilitate a smooth transaction. SCD’s ability to act quickly ensured that the process was completed within 2 months, despite the intense due diligence phase and the tight timeframes. Our efforts ensured a strong strategic and cultural fit with Atturra, delivering a successful financial outcome for the founder.
