Restructuring and Turnaround Consulting Services
Restructuring and turnaround projects can push any business to the brink. Choosing the right consultant and restructuring team is crucial to stabilizing and yielding positive OEE improvements.
Strong Leadership Through Critical Times
When a business is no longer viable, swift and confident action must be taken to preserve remaining value. Turnaround strategies can be as simple as improving the performance of a facility through the implementation of robust management operating systems. More dire situations require dramatic changes including liquidation of facilities, consolidating footprints, and discontinuing underperforming product lines.
The most important first step for a restructuring & turnaround consulting firm is to grasp the core issues and clearly understand the viable options given the available financial runway. Solutions must be carefully tailored to address the situation and plot a path forward.

Our Approach to Restructuring and TurnAround
• • • • • • • • •
RESTRUCTURING
Keeping customer focus in a firm moving through the bankruptcy process is essential for preserving value for creditors. Our restructuring consultants have decades of experience identifying and separating segments that can be profitable from those that cannot. The difference between on-paper approximations and the reality of day-to-day operations can be millions of dollars. Seraph’s focus on production and delivery systems operates on the principle that clients have responsibility for outcomes, not just strategy.
TURNAROUND
A turnaround requires tremendous amounts of energy and focus to execute. The scale and level of risk mean that each day counts. Tensions build when a dramatic new strategy is introduced, and our team’s objective view can keep the focus on the challenge at hand, without the complications from years of being entrenched in the old business. Seraph engagement managers and turnaround consultants have led transformations as executives in the industry as well as projects supporting our clients as consultants.
