Welcome to Sustainable Operations Management

Sustainable Operations Management works with small to medium enterprises to build wealth by improving systems, processes and returns, thus increasing the value of businesses, allowing them to be sold at a premium price.

Statistically, the majority of businesses in Australia are sold for a fraction of what they could be worth because owners cannot demonstrate to potential buyers that profits can be sustained after they cease involvement. This results in most small to medium enterprises being sold for 1 to 2 times their annual net profit.

With a comprehensive analysis and action plan, business owners can significantly increase the value of their company, between 4 and 6 times annual net profit. This, at the same time as improving their monthly profits through our unique profit building program. The difference could be thousands or even millions of dollars. Your return on investment is likely to be better than any other investment you could make.

Our consultants perform what we call Vendor Due Diligence on your business, applying the same scrutiny to the areas that a potential buyer will be looking at when evaluating your business and making the decision whether to buy it or another business. We identify areas that require attention and work with you to put in place the necessary systems, processes, structures and documentation so that your business will stand up to the most detailed review by a buyer. This in turn significantly increases the amount a prospective buyer will pay for your business.

Your business should be viewed exactly the same as your house - an asset that holds a certain amount of equity. Even if you're not planning to sell your business in the near future, you should be aiming to hold as much equity as possible in your asset, just like your family home. Businesses that make good returns and have all the necessary systems, processes and documentation in place are worth more money, and therefore contain more equity.
