Principals of engineering, technical consulting and industrial services firms

Engineering & Technical Services

Technical services firms are built on expertise, which makes them dependent on principals and exposed to project cycles. Recurring work and a broader leadership bench change both the economics and the valuation.

The commercial challenges

  • Project-based revenue with little visibility.
  • Principals who are both lead engineer and lead seller.
  • A few industrial clients carrying the business.
