Consulting Services
IHM provides consulting through a wide range of services, including
operations reviews, market assessments, feasibility studies, valuations,
and financial restructuring. Operations
Reviews and Market Assessments
This analysis creates the identification of opportunities for improvements
(e.g. pricing, operating costs, staffing levels, controls, sales
& marketing efforts) We compare the subject operation to industry
benchmarks and standards specifically generated for the property,
focus on the problem areas identified, assess the each situation
in detail and provide practical solutions with detailed implementation
plans.
Feasibility
Studies
We are frequently asked to provide market and financial feasibility
studies to support financing applications for new developments and
for property repositioning. The purpose is to identify any “make
or break” issues that would prevent the business from being
successful in the current and emerging marketplace. Our feasibility
studies address three fundamental issues; the Marketplace fit, specialized
Operational Expertise, and Economic Viability.
Valuations
Business valuations are prepared when we are retained on behalf
of financial institutions and law firms. In preparing the valuation
we examine the market and financial performance of the operation
with a view to determining a value for the business on a going-concern
basis.
Financial
Restructuring
We use our experience in financial and business structuring to analyze
a company’s debt replacement plans; financing proposals, and
corporate/tax restructuring plans are considered on an engagement-by-engagement
basic.
