A&M combines finance, tax and operations expertise along with comprehensive planning and execution services to support building products companies’ buy- and sell-side transactions across the entire deal lifecycle. From strategy to diligence, and planning to value capture, we work with our clients to prepare for and execute transactions that improve enterprise performance and the competitive health of the business.

We have extensive experience supporting transactions in the building products industry including:

DUE DILIGENCE: We combine deep building products expertise with an integrated financial accounting, tax and operational due diligence approach to eliminate surprises and identify value drivers.

TRANSITION SERVICES: A&M scopes and develops detailed and well-governed transition service agreements (TSA) as well as practical plans and contract governance for TSA-exit.

SYNERGIES: We help clients identify and capture the synergies in distribution networks and fleet operations; direct and indirect materials and labor; and both headcount and non-headcount SG&A categories.

STRANDED COST REDUCTION: A&M provides systematic analysis to identify and quantify stranded costs. Then, we help develop a detailed plan of action to mitigate or eliminate them tax-efficiently.

TECHNOLOGY: A&M develops solutions to advance technology and digital capabilities while mitigating tech-related barriers to synergies and stranded cost reduction.

TALENT: Losing talent during a deal is more likely and expensive than ever. We help clients navigate the people side of transactions to preserve deal value. 

INTEGRATION AND CARVE-OUT MANAGEMENT: The value of a deal hinges on your ability to execute. We help companies plan for and execute integration and separation activities across all functional areas to maximize deal value and achieve results sooner.
