We used Blue Ops in the diligence process for Atlanta Cheesecake Company. When we acquired the business, we already had the hierarchy pieces built and we already had the data in. We were able to get reporting within the first week or two after acquisition.

Like with other private equity jobs, my job at Louisiana Fish Fry will end when we sell the company. When that happens, I’ll be onto my next CFO job. When I accept that job offer, the first call I’ll make will be to my wife. The second I’ll make will be to Blue Ops.

Obviously, there’s a shelf life to information – the longer it takes to get out, the less value it has. The Catalyst software allows us to ask more time-relevant questions and make more time-relevant changes. We can ask much more pointed questions.
– Patrick O’Neill CFO, Chandler Industries

My only wish is that we would have slotted Blue Ops in sooner than we did… I can imagine how beneficial it must be to get the team involved right from the get-go.

The analyses you’ve worked to provide have made an impact and helped ease the diligence burden on our end. It has been great to work with the team.
