Consulting Services for Business Owners

 

 

 

Proper preparation of a business for sale can be a time consuming effort, even when the business owner says that he is ready. A realistic time frame for this activity could easily range from one month to one year. As a service to the business owner considering a future sale and/or retirement, but who perhaps is not quite ready to do so, McLemore & Associates will provide a range of consulting services, with the basic service including all or any part of the following:

  1. An evaluation of the management structure and recommendations with respect thereto;
  2. An evaluation of the physical plant and facilities (inside and out, including necessity of third party registered safety engineer report on OSHA compliance, and/or Phase I environmental audit);
  3. Status and review of corporate books and records;
  4. Status, availability and review of tax returns and financial reports;
  5. Review of equipment and inventory;
  6. Status of title to all assets and real estate to be included in a sale;
  7. Status of all third-party contracts, leases and obligations;
  8. Status of any pending or threatened litigation;
  9. Employee liabilities;
  10. Product liability and warranty claims;
  11. Insurance coverage;
  12. Permits and licenses;
  13. General requirements and recommendations for preparation of a business for sale, and anticipated/expected terms in a contract of sale;
  14. Explanation of the due diligence phase of a sale transaction.
