—— ABOUT
We reveal the hidden leverage points and dynamics, while actively resolving the contradictions between the disciplines.
Different experts have different perspectives. We actively integrate knowledge and perspectives from multiple disciplines to address a problem that no single discipline can solve alone. We inform decision-makers with clarity.
Special Situations and projects are complex, have high uncertainty and no single discipline solves them alone. They must be navigated as they unfold.
This requires an interdisciplinary role. Someone who understands the stakeholders, the experts ánd the situation. We translate that expertise into orientation that produces a viable path forward that works for everybody as the situation unfolds.
Behind the Firm
Lennart Huisjes
Special Situations Director
Reality is unaffected by appearances or preferred narratives. It rewards the ability to read the signs and understand the terrain.
Reality speaks its own language. The skill is knowing how to translate it and see the hidden pathways.
Definition: A special situation is a non-standard event with a potential to alter a company’s future trajectory, and materially impact its value. This may be positive (a major investment, a new opportunity) and negative (conflict, drift distress). In either case the playbook breaks down.
—— OPERATIONAL DOMAIN
Examples of situations we help with
01
Pressure from regulations, inspections or government
An inspection flagging violations, trouble meeting tightening regulations and standards or deteriorating government relations can cause serious disruption, delays, penalties or worse: shutdowns.
02
Large investment in production assets or technology
Large capital expenditure committed: new production capacity, facility upgrades and technology acquisition. Stakeholder expectations must be maintained while being under pressure.
03
Site closure and transfer of capital assets
Divesting physical assets or closing down a facility involves negotation, risk transfer and a large number of stakeholders that need to be in on your way out.
04
Disruption or crisis
An organisation experiencing disruption, struggling to function, over-reliant on a single resource, or unable to identify and address the underlying root cause.
05
External threats
Pressure from a competitor or activist group systematically undermining your regulatory standing, or unintentional harm from external activity forcing a response.
06
Teams unable to make progress.
Teams tasked with breakthrough innovation or a critical operational challenge — locked under pressure, struggling to move forward despite effort and resource.
