HR Carveout Assistance for Lower-Middle Market PE Firm

A lower-middle market PE firm required an HR consultant experienced in HR carveouts to support their project. The client needed assistance in negotiating a Transition Services Agreement (TSA) within a three-week timeframe and guidance in managing the interim transitions of insurance, benefits, and payroll.

The client was undergoing an HR carveout involving a tech/SaaS business with upwards of eight figures in ARR. The carveout involved merging two businesses previously combined by another PE firm, with the client acquiring one segment. The client sought an HR consultant to provide expertise in negotiating the TSA and managing the interim transitions.

BluWave promptly presented the client with several options of specialized HR firms experienced in carveouts. The client engaged a consultant with deep knowledge in their niche. The service provider worked closely with the client to negotiate a robust TSA and provided guidance on managing the interim transitions of insurance, benefits and payroll.

With the HR consultant’s help, the PE firm successfully navigated the HR carveout process. The service provider’s expertise and proactive approach facilitated a seamless transition of insurance, benefits and payroll, while the negotiated TSA provided a solid foundation for post-close operations.
