About KDC & Associates, Ltd.

KDC & Associates, Ltd. is the Right Resource for the smaller and mid-sized privately held companies. Our difference is three-fold: Experience, Approach, and Services

Experience

KDC principals’ have many years of successful senior management of smaller companies through extraordinarily difficult operating environments in the world’s most highly competitive and volatile industries. These efforts have included complete enterprise renewal, top line rebuilding, joint ventures, M&A, recapitalizations, and effective exit strategies.

KDC & Associates executives have a long history of working directly with private owners and equity funds, senior lenders, and other stakeholders. The firm’s focus on operations revolves around sustainable value creation based on renewing the client company’s unique competitiveness using proven methods tailored to client needs.

Approach

KDC believes that the most effective performance improvements with the highest returns come from working directly with owners and existing senior management in a consensus building manner.

KDC’s approach is direct, hands-on, and practical. We believe that smaller companies are fundamentally different from larger ones. These companies usually have far fewer competitive degrees of freedom and are constantly threatened by larger competitors and much larger customers. Successfully renewing smaller companies requires strong and broad experience in competing with limited resources. KDC provides those skills.

Services

KDC services range from assessments and advice, to training and coaching, to specific projects, to actual turnaround and restructuring management. Our focus is on unique competitiveness and delivered value. We believe in improvement through differentiation and performance. We have a multitude of highly developed tools to employ in these tasks, including methods for determining where and how the company creates value in the marketplace, techniques for rebuilding the top line, and options for solving cost, delivery, and margin pressures.

Other specialized KDC services include company-specific seminars on key operational and competitiveness issues and advice and assistance in forming joint ventures and other collaborations.

Of interest to companies suffering from decline due to commoditization and foreign competition, KDC can provide Chinese manufacturing services to augment local operations and enter Asian markets.
