WHAT WE DO

our APPROACH

At Nash & Arrow, we partner with investment teams, corporate leaders, and founders to unlock clarity in complex, fragmented markets — with a clear focus on engineering and IT services. Our approach is modular, rigorous, fact-based, transparent, collaborative, and focused on execution.

Below is how we typically support our clients:

Market RESEARCH & Growth Dynamics

Rigorous analysis to quantify the total and relevant market size, identify segment opportunities, and understand growth drivers and macro resilience. We provide the strategic baseline for prioritizing growth bets.

Voice-of-the-Market Research

Targeted outreach to market participants — customers, vendors, and competitors — to extract real-world insight on buying behavior, competitive positioning, and demand dynamics. Synthesized into actionable strategic themes.

Competitor intelligence & market Positioning

Detailed mapping of competitors and value propositions, paired with customer feedback to assess true differentiation. Helps clients understand relative positioning and competitive intensity.

Software Vendor Deep Research

End-to-end market mapping and benchmarking of software vendors — from large incumbents to niche innovators supporting integration strategy design, capability development, partnerships, and tech buy-vs-build decisions.

Deal Sourcing & Origination

Development of structured, proactive acquisition strategies aligned with growth theses. We conduct thematic scans, identify high-signal targets, and facilitate initial outreach when relevant.

M&A Target Profiling

In-depth profiles of potential targets, including client exposure, leadership, differentiation, company culture and fit with strategic goals.

Buy-Side M&A Advisory

Comprehensive support through the full acquisition lifecycle — including strategic rationale validation, diligence readiness, valuation logic, and integration planning. Ideal for acquirers lacking internal corp dev bandwidth.

Commercial Due Diligence

Targeted commercial assessments covering the strength and weaknesses of a target’s value proposition, markets in which it participates, competitive differentiation, and availability of growth and expansion vectors.

Synergies Evaluation

Objective evaluation of potential synergies across revenue, cost, and capability areas. We focus on what’s real, achievable, and strategically aligned — not just spreadsheet assumptions.

Post-Merger Integration Assessment

Early integration planning support across culture, leadership, GTM strategy, and operating model alignment. Helps reduce friction and accelerate value creation in the first 12 months post-deal.

EXIT READINESS

Exit readiness advisory services for companies looking to optimize and prepare for a potential exit in the next 12 to 18 months.
