Of course, Saw Mill is an equity investor — but that is only the beginning.

We will work hard to understand your business. We are disciplined, research driven investors. Saw Mill won’t invest in your business until we thoroughly understand its issues and opportunities. We will proceed only when we are convinced that we can jointly help the company realize its full potential.

We provide unique resources to which you may not currently have access. Our partnership model consists of company management, the Saw Mill Capital team, and a group of experienced executives who serve as independent board members or advisors, with specific operating or industry expertise in areas such as lean business practices, sales and marketing, business development, product pricing strategies, operations, and global market development and sourcing.

We have a structured process. The key to success for any of our acquisitions (both pre- and post-closing) is focus. Both management and employees must have clearly defined goals as well as a means for achieving them. Saw Mill’s first task is always to work with management and the board to develop and agree on a strategy and a plan of action. Together, we work to identify opportunities that will drive growth, improve operating efficiency and enable strategic acquisitions. A specific, actionable game plan will help our companies focus on what is important and allow us to measure our collective success.

We believe business improvement is a journey, not a destination. There is always room for improvement in any organization. It is a best practice to always be on the lookout for the opportunity to implement programs that target productivity gains and improvements to quality in areas such as reliability and safety. Once such an opportunity has been identified, a team of employees takes the responsibility of realizing its potential. These initiatives are reviewed on a regular basis by senior management and the board to assess their viability, efficacy and progress, and serve as benchmarks of performance for the team and its members.
