Dear Insider,

With the holiday weekend ahead, we leave you with the most distilled answers to the questions every owner is facing about their exit strategy. 

Too many firm owners in the A/E/C industry wait until they’re ready to retire before thinking about how they’ll exit. As we shared in our recent one-hour webinar, hosted by PSMJ’s Senior Internal Transition Consultant Jared Jamison and M&A Advisor Mitchell Mafra, the best time to start planning your exit is long before you’re ready to step away—but it’s never too late to get your strategy in order.

This fast-paced session explored the full spectrum of exit options available to A/E/C firm owners—from internal transitions to third-party strategic sales or private equity recapitalizations. Whether your goal is to preserve independence, maximize value, or strike a balance between the two, this webinar broke down what each path looks like and how to prepare for it.

The key message? You don’t need to know all the answers—you just need to start asking the right questions.
