THE FINAL VERDICT: ARE YOU BUILDING AN ASSET OR A JOB?

Asset or Job?

We have mapped the 100-day Blitz. We have identified the EBITDA levers. Now we apply the scale.

This Scorecard is the final diagnostic. If you cannot check at least 4 of these boxes, your exit

multiple is actively shrinking. In Private Equity, predictability is the only currency that matters.

■ IS YOUR FOUNDER DEPENDENCY UNDER 20%?

■ CAN YOU VERIFY MARGIN INTEGRITY IN REAL-TIME?

■ IS YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN NEAR-SHORED AND RESILIENT?

■ IS YOUR ADMINISTRATIVE BOILERPLATE AUTOMATED?

■ IS YOUR DATA ANALYSIS EVIDENCE-BASED?

If you checked fewer than 4 boxes, your exit is at risk.

I am opening 2 slots for a confidential Operational Audit in May. DM 'BLITZ' to secure a review.
