8D Consulting provides clear, data-driven market visibility to help investors understand industry dynamics, competitive landscapes, and emerging disruptive forces. We analyze how automation—across AI, robotics, workflow digitization, and advanced analytics—is reshaping value chains, cost structures, and customer expectations. Our insights help private equity firms identify where automation creates risk, where it unlocks margin expansion, and where it signals entirely new investment opportunities.
CASE STUDY: We analyzed the impact of automation for a PE-backed portfolio company based on mix of services, financial model, differentiation attributes and investment in technology infrastructure.
We partner closely with investment teams to refine, validate, or pressure-test deal theses. Drawing on domain expertise, market research, and operator-level experience, 8D Consulting evaluates the strategic soundness of the thesis, its alignment with market realities, and the levers that will ultimately drive returns. Whether you’re exploring an emerging sub-sector or building conviction around a complex growth narrative, we deliver the clarity and strategic confidence needed to move forward.
CASE STUDY: We worked with a reputed PE firm to validate its investment thesis on front end revenue cycle management services.
Our team supports private equity firms throughout the M&A lifecycle—from proactive deal sourcing to rigorous commercial and operational diligence. We identify high-potential targets that align with the firm’s strategic focus, validate performance and growth assumptions, and uncover risks that may impact valuation. 8D Consulting equips investors with a complete view of market positioning, customer sentiment, competitive threats, and value-creation upside to support informed investment decisions.
CASE STUDY: A PE firm hired us to identify complimentary services for its portfolio company and formulate an action plan to deliver against a pre-exit EBITDA target
8D Consulting helps portfolio companies accelerate growth and improve profitability through structured value-creation planning and hands-on transformation support. We design and implement initiatives across go-to-market optimization, operational efficiency, digital enablement, automation, product strategy, and organizational alignment. Whether the goal is rapid EBITDA expansion or long-term strategic repositioning, we work closely with management teams to translate strategy into measurable, sustainable results.
CASE STUDY: A PE backed portfolio company, offering medical records retrieval services, hired us to identify and execute an RFP for offshoring its client delivery and operations functions including defining the scope, risk and ROI
As companies prepare for a sale or IPO, 8D Consulting ensures they present a compelling, credible story to potential buyers. We sharpen the equity narrative, validate growth levers, highlight operational improvements, and prepare robust supporting materials for diligence. Our team identifies and closes gaps that could create friction during the exit process, helping management teams maximize valuation and position the business as a high-quality, low-risk asset for the next owner.
CASE STUDY: A PE firm hired Arvind Ramakrishnan as the CEO to develop and implement a readiness plan for an exit in 24 months. The company had a successful exit in 18 months.
