For Private Equity

Technology value creation,
delivered a pace.

We do value creation on IT spend. Operating partners bring us in post-close to support management teams on the technology side of the investment thesis, and we do it with a commercial model that differentiates us.

No cost to engage

Know the value before you know the cost.

Sourcing engagements come at no cost to your portfolio companies. We're

compensated by the supplier ecosystem when a portco transacts and
services are implemented

Where we fit

Useful at every point in the hold period.

Most relationships start with a portfolio-wide spend review or a single portco introduction.
From there, we prioritize the work where there's opportunity and impact.

POST-CLOSE

Portfolio spend review

Baseline technology spend across the portfolio or a new platform. Find the waste, the risk, and the opportunity.

CARVE-OUTS

TSA exit & standup

Stand up independent voice, network, and infrastructure before the TSA clock runs out. Our team augments the portfolio company's team, with discipline and proper planning.

BUY & BUILD

M&A integration

Consolidate vendors, tenants, and contracts across acquisitions. Speed up integration with a repeatable playbook.

HOLD PERIOD

Sourcing & renewal events

Don't let your companies face professional vendor sales teams alone. Treat major renewals as financial events, and ensure every one extracts maximum value.

PRE-EXIT

Exit readiness

Ensure the house is in order before diligence: structural cost out of the run rate, nothing you're paying for that you don't need, and EBITDA delivered back to the bottom line.

The engagement pattern

One introduction.
Then the work compounds.

A real engagement arc from our case study library: a global information services company,
introduced through a PE portfolio-wide spend review.

Entry

Portfolio-wide IT and telecom spend review

Sponsor introduces Resourcive to baseline spend across the portfolio. This portco surfaces $7.4M of addressable spend, much of it uncompeted for years in a post-carve-out environment still carrying TSA-era costs.

Workstream 1

Global voice transformation

Moved 23,000+ users from disparate legacy on-prem voice to Teams, with per-user PSTN analysis that eliminated years of oversubscription.

Workstream 2

Colocation renewal captured mid-term

Renegotiated the colocation agreement, right-sizing the power usage commitment, with zero

Workstream 3

China network redesign

Replaced legacy MPLS with point-to-point connectivity to a Hong Kong data center, cutting China connectivity costs 86%.

Outcome

39% total spend reduction, $2.9M annualized

The portco kept 100% of the savings. No fees, no consulting invoice, no drag on the value creation budget. The relationship is still active.

This pattern repeats across our library: a retail portco went from a rescue engagement to a $5.1M/yr program; a healthcare roll-up engagement scaled from 70 to 90+ locations; a chemical manufacturer went from mobility into managed security.

Easy to work with, by design

Your management teams are going to like working with us.

You bring us in on an immediate need; we become a leave-behind that keeps producing, helping your companies spend better and get more value long after the first workstream closes. Here's how it stays friction-free:

We work alongside portco IT, not around them. The baseline work makes their environment legible to them first. Most IT leaders end up treating us as an extension of their team.
We carry the workload. Sourcing, proposal normalization, negotiation, and implementation project management. The portco team makes decisions; we do the labor between them.
Wins are theirs to report. Savings land in the portco's numbers and the IT leader's track record. We're not competing with anyone for credit.
You get portfolio-level visibility. Consistent reporting across engagements, in EBITDA terms, without chasing each portco for updates.
“By far the most successful of the [sponsor's savings] initiative.”

“I see them as a partner. I can't necessarily say the same about my vendors.”

“They've delivered for me in terms of cost savings, efficiency gains, and consolidation of providers, all the while being in lock step with the market.”

Results across portfolios

Patterns, not one-offs.

Individual results vary by scope and baseline. Client and sponsor names are kept confidential by design.

 

Retail portco · 550+ locations
$5.1M/yr
53% reduction after a rescue engagement

Sponsor brought us in to rescue a failing SD-WAN rollout post-restructuring. We rebuilt the network, moved 7,500 users to cloud voice, and turned a stalled project into the portfolio's flagship cost story.

Locations onboarded during the engagement

An operating partner introduction at 70 locations. We unified voice from serial acquisitions onto one platform with growth-locked pricing, so every new acquisition lands on the same rate card.

Acquisition integration time after cloud migration

Sponsor introduced us to a newly placed CIO. We took the company out of the data center business entirely; acquisition integration went from a six-month project to days.

Firms among the 10 largest in the world by AUM bring us into their portfolios. You won't find their logos here; that's not how we operate. If you'd like to hear how we think, listen to the conversations. If you'd like to hear it from an operating partner, we'll arrange the call.
