For Private Equity - Sponsors - Operating Partners
You diligence the financials. Growth is the one system nobody instrumented.
RevGrowth OS scores a company's entire organic growth engine against 200+ mid-market industrial and B2B companies, then converts the gaps into a quantified plan.
You underwrite growth in the model. Then you own a company where growth runs on three good salespeople and one long relationship. Not because the team is weak. Because nobody ever scored the machine that produces revenue.
Two days gets you a score, a peer position, and 20 to 30 named opportunities with dollars attached.
One hour. Your data. Zero cost.
The Gap in the Diligence Stack
Quality of earnings. Then quality of growth.
QoE, operations, IT, legal, insurance, environmental. Every one of them gets instrumented before close. Commercial diligence gets a market study and a customer call list.
That tells you the market is attractive. It does not tell you whether this company can take it. Those are different questions, and only one of them is in your model.

drivers of sustained growth, scored individually, benchmarked against peers.

The 4 - 11 - 37 Framework
Four non-negotiables. 11 critical factors. 37 drivers of sustained growth.
Every element of an organic growth engine, scored against a dataset of 200+ mid-market industrial and B2B companies.

Drivers of Sustained Growth
Each driver gets a score. Each score gets a peer comparison. Nothing is a matter of opinion, because nothing is scored against opinion.
Frameworks give you opinions. Benchmarks give you position.
Score Position Tracks Growth Rate
Companies that score higher grow faster. Consistently.
Across the benchmarking dataset, growth rate moves with growth-engine score in a straight line.
The score is not a proxy for size, sector, or cycle. It is a measure of how deliberately the growth engine was built.
That is the part a sponsor can actually change during a hold period.
Where It Fits
Four entry points. Same instrument.
PRE-LOI
Price growth on evidence.
Score the target’s growth engine before you price growth into the model. Know which part of the thesis is real and which part is a hope.
FIRST 100 DAYS
Start at day one, not day 60.
Skip the discovery phase. Day one of the plan starts with a benchmarked position and a ranked opportunity list, not a listening tour.
MID-HOLD
End the argument in an afternoon.
When a portfolio company stalls, the argument is usually about whose function is at fault. A score ends the argument in an afternoon.
EXIT PREPARATION
Show governance, not tenure.
Show a buyer a growth engine that runs on governance instead of tenure. Durable growth carries a different multiple than lucky growth.
One hour. Your data. Zero cost.
Portfolio-Wide Comparability
One score. Every company. Same scale.
You already compare portfolio companies on margin, working capital, and net debt. Growth is the line item you compare on anecdote.
RevGrowth Benchmark scores every company on the same 37 drivers, so a distributor in Ohio and a specialty manufacturer in Texas sit on one chart. Capital, attention, and operating partner hours follow the gap that pays the most.
Founder & CEO
Six things we hold ourselves to on every engagement.
Great client experiences build longer, more profitable client relationships. These are the standards we run on.
Day One: RevGrowth Benchmark
The score and the peer position.
The company's growth engine is scored across 37 drivers and positioned against peers.
Day Two: Architecture and Engine
The plan, sequenced and priced.
Action planning through the RevGrowth Architecture and the RevGrowth Engine. The output is a benchmarked, quantified growth plan carrying 20 to 30 specific opportunities, sequenced, with owners and a cadence.
For companies that want the cadence held after the room clears, RevGrowth Assurance provides continued support at every step.

Specific growth opportunities per engagement
For Operating Partners
This is an instrument, not a replacement.
Your operating partners know what good looks like. What they lack is a way to prove where a company stands before the debate starts, and a way to compare two companies without relitigating both from scratch.
Benchmark first. Argue second. The argument gets much shorter.
For Operating Partners
Questions sponsors ask.
How is this different from commercial due diligence?
Commercial diligence assesses the market. RevGrowth Benchmark assesses the company’s ability to capture it, scored against companies of comparable size and model.
Does the management team resist it?
The score is objective and the comparison set is peers, not an ideal. Most teams engage with it because it finally makes the growth conversation specific.
What do you need from us to start?
The Simulation runs on the company’s own data in a single hour. No preparation, no data room, no cost.
Can this run pre-close?
Yes, with target cooperation. With management access, the full Benchmark runs as it would post-close.
Without that access, the scoring is limited to what the data room and customer conversations support — a directional read on the growth engine rather than a complete position. We will tell you which drivers we could not score.
For Operating Partners
Run one company thought it. Decide from there.
The RevGrowth Simulation is a one-hour working session using a portfolio company's own data.
Bring one company, or a target you are underwriting now. In an hour you will see where its growth engine scores, where it sits against peers, and what the gap is worth.
If it earns a second conversation, we will have one. If it does not, you have spent an hour.
