Who we serve

Private Equity

Build the value creation plan from how the company actually runs.

Designed for

Deal teams, investment committees, operating partners, value-creation teams, and portfolio company leaders.

Overview

Most of a deal's return is made after closing, in how well the company runs. Cerenovus reads a portfolio company's own systems, from e-mail and chat to the ERP and CRM, and shows how work actually gets done: where it should be automated, where teams pull against each other, and where the plan depends on one person. Operating partners and management build the value creation plan from evidence they can check.

Coverage

Work covered for this team

01

Operating partners start the hundred days with evidence

About a week after read-only access, Cerenovus returns a ranked register of opportunities: work to automate, duplicated effort, misaligned teams, and bottlenecks. Each one is sized from named inputs and cited to the records behind it.

02

Deal teams see how the company runs before they own it

Where a data room or early access allows, Cerenovus tests management's account of how the business operates against the documents themselves, and lists what the evidence cannot yet show.

03

New leadership gets a first-hand read of the organization

When a CEO, CFO, or CTO changes, Cerenovus gives the incoming team a picture of how work really flows, who holds critical knowledge, and where earlier fixes stalled, without relying on the accounts of people with a stake in the answer.

04

Boards see whether initiatives show up in the work

Re-running the same questions each quarter shows which initiatives are changing how the company runs and which exist only in the deck.

Client decisions

The fund and board decide what to invest in and how to oversee the company. Management chooses and leads the operating changes.
