WHAT IS STRATEGIC CAPACITY?
The Fundamental Driver of Business Value Creation.
It measures the business’ ability to deliver profits, growth, and transferable value - without founder dependency... What buyers want, and sellers need to succeed post-close.
Not just a measure of current business performance, but also a predictive measure of potential business value.
A business strong in Strategic Capacity commands higher valuations, reduces earn-outs and post-close risks, attracting more buyers and stronger offers.
