The Inside Story
This family-owned company directed the site management and construction for some of the largest industrial plants built in the history of Canada. Founded over 30 years ago, dependability was the hallmark of the company.
The owner’s aspirations to retire coincided with the impending conclusion of a major mandate. The challenge wasn’t just finding a buyer who understood the risk — it was also balancing the owner’s wish to avoid long-term commitments with a buyer’s ambition to pursue new tendering opportunities.
In the end, after concerted efforts to uncover the right buyers, a favourable deal was struck with a group lead by a “shovel-ready” management team. Another win-win outcome.
