Project excerpt

omegaconsulting is advising the HÜBNER Group on the sale of GERSYS GmbH

Omegaconsulting GmbH advised the HÜBNER Group on the seller’s side during the structured sale process for GERSYS GmbH. AMiT Transportation has signed an agreement to acquire 100% of the shares in the specialist in on-board electronics for rail and special-purpose vehicles. GERSYS is to continue as an independent brand.

A key contribution from omegaconsulting was its combination of transaction expertise, in-depth industry knowledge, and a robust network within the electronics industry. This was made possible in particular by Jean-Claude Baumer’s many years of operational leadership and transformation experience in technology-oriented industrial companies, as well as the experience gained from successfully executed projects in the industry. This enabled the targeted identification of suitable strategic acquirers and their evaluation not only in terms of economic viability but also with regard to their technological, strategic, and cultural fit.

The omegaconsulting approach known as “People as Corporate Value” was also of particular importance . As part of the transaction support, a structured knowledge transfer process was therefore prepared and managed at an early stage. The goal was to systematically preserve business-critical knowledge—some of which was tied to specific individuals—and thereby support continuity for clients, employees, and the new managing director.

“A successful transaction requires more than just a strategically suitable buyer. It is crucial that technological expertise, customer knowledge, and the experience of key personnel are effectively preserved even after the change in ownership. At GERSYS, we were able to specifically combine our industry expertise and our network in the electronics industry with a structured knowledge transfer,” explains Jean-Claude Baumer, Managing Director of omegaconsulting GmbH and project manager.

omegaconsulting would like to thank the HÜBNER Group for the trust they have placed in us, as well as everyone involved for their professional and constructive cooperation.

Succession Plan for System Providers of Control and Monitoring Technology for Railroad Companies

omegaconsulting successfully supported the succession process of a medium-sized electronics company in the rail industry. The sale of the company required the full range of consulting expertise in the sales process – from the identification and acquisition of the buyer to transaction preparation and handover through to the integration phase after the handover. Of particular importance in this complex transaction were the technical and legal requirements placed on the team of consultants as well as their project management and communication skills. Thanks to the existing experience and expertise, the sale of the company to a strategic family-run market companion was successfully realized while safeguarding the interests of both parties.

Purchase software company in the embedded software sector

As part of the strategic development and integration of the company after the handover (post-merger integration – PMI), strategic acquisitions are an important element in order to efficiently develop the acquired company and quickly close strategic gaps. The basis for this is initially a stringently managed strategy process that includes a company acquisition as an option for action. The precise description of the company to be acquired (“profiling”) is the guarantee for the successful completion and integration of the company to be acquired. On this basis, omegaconsulting is commissioned to identify a company in the embedded software environment and to accompany the potential acquisition process. In this project, too, the combination of in-depth technological understanding and expertise in the implementation of the M&A process enables the best possible efficiency in the takeover process.
