Business Description
This opportunity represents the acquisition of a long-standing
structural engineering firm with more than four decades of
successful operations and an excellent reputation throughout
Tennessee and the Mid-South region. The company delivers
comprehensive engineering services, including concept
development, detailed structural design, construction
documentation, value engineering, and specialized seismic
evaluation and remediation. Its diverse project portfolio spans
healthcare, airports, institutional, and multifamily
developments. The business has cultivated a highly loyal,
repeat client base, of which over 90% of revenue comes from.
The company has developed a particularly strong niche within
the healthcare sector, contributing to large-scale, complex
projects and positioning itself as a trusted partner in a
specialized and high-barrier-to-entry market. Operations are
supported by a lean, highly experienced team of 3 senior
engineering professionals and an administrator. The current
owner is involved in project oversight, client relationships, and
business management, and is seeking to transition out of the
business as part of a planned retirement. In order to transition
the new owner into their role, the seller has offered to stay
with the business for 1 year in addition to carrying 15% of the
purchase price!
Priced at $550,000, this opportunity is well-suited for a
strategic acquirer or industry professional seeking to expand
geographic presence, enhance technical capabilities, or enter
the attractive healthcare engineering space. Key growth
opportunities include scaling the firm’s healthcare practice,
expanding into additional geographic markets, increasing
staffing to support higher project volume, and implementing
more proactive marketing and business development
initiatives to further accelerate growth.
