The process of restructuring a company is complex. While a number of issues are common, no two situations are ever the same. There is however a logical sequence of events which are typically undertaken to begin the process.

Our experience in the stabilizing and rebuilding of troubled companies in all situations comes from a large number of such projects we've carried out over the past 30 or more years. Dealing with the problems for the business owners and allowing them to focus on running the business itself.

When is the best time to do a financial restructuring on a company? During the good times, when it is earning the most and profitable. That is when the most waste occurs, yet appears inconsequental and is easily afforded, and ignored – causing potential future issues and making problems larger.

When are the majority of them requested? During financial downturns, either in the economy or due to issues at the company itself. Then the issues have caused their damage and are more difficult to change.
