For private equity and portfolio operators

Install the operating system across your portfolio.

TMI standardizes operations across every holding, raises enterprise value and the exit multiple, and gives you one roll-up view of every company: its Intelligence Score, how much still runs on the owner, and live metrics.

The thing that raises the multiple is the same thing that de-risks the hold: every company running the same way, on systems, not on one owner.

One view
every company on one screen
One standard
the same operating system
Higher multiple
value that survives the owner

Standardize the operation, and the exit takes care of itself.

The portfolio problem

Every holding runs on its own owner.

You bought companies, not operating systems. Each one runs a different way, on a different stack, held together by a founder who is the only person who understands it. The value you underwrote is trapped in people who can walk, and you cannot see any of it until the monthly package lands.

That is concentration risk on every hold, and it is a discount at every exit. A buyer pays less for a company that depends on one person, and you feel it across the whole portfolio at once.

Every company runs on a different stack
Value concentrated in owners who can leave
No standard way to operate across holdings
No live view across the portfolio
Reporting arrives late and never compares
Owner-dependence discounts every exit

What TMI installs across holdings

One operating system, every company.

The same infrastructure installed in each holding, so every company operates to one standard and reports the same way, from day one of ownership.

Standard operating system

Every holding runs the same way.

Install one operating system across the portfolio, so companies stop being one-off stacks and start operating to a single standard you control.

Digital workforce

Reduce owner-dependence.

Capture how each company operates and move it into systems and a digital workforce, so the value stops living in one person's head.

Value creation

Raise the exit multiple.

A company that runs on systems earns a bigger multiple. Install it early and the value compounds across the whole hold.

Live metrics

See each company clearly.

Revenue, cash flow, and operations live in each holding, so you are not waiting on a monthly package to know where a company stands.

Intelligence Score

Measure operational maturity.

Every company gets a score for how much of it runs on systems versus on the owner, so progress is a number you can hold a team to.

Playbook rollout

Repeat what works.

Once a holding is running on the system, the same build becomes a playbook you install in the next acquisition faster each time.

The roll-up view and diligence

Every company on one screen.

A single roll-up across the whole portfolio, and a way to score a target before you ever sign.

One screen shows every company's Intelligence Score, how much still runs on the owner, and the metrics that move the value, side by side and always current. You see which holdings are compounding and which still carry key-person risk, without chasing a report.

Diligence mode

Score a target before you buy.

Run a target's operational intelligence during diligence, see exactly how much of it depends on the owner, and model the post-close build before you commit capital.

Standardize the operating system across the portfolio, and enterprise value stops depending on which founder stays.

Raise the multiple across the whole portfolio.

Apply for an Intelligent Company Audit on a holding or a target. We map where the company still depends on its owner and hand you the build plan to standardize it, and the exit that follows.
