Welcome to the ValueStep
Moving organisations
to the next level
We are a specialist advisory company working to help organisations achieve the next Value Step.
In the private sector, the Value Step is a critical increase in shareholder value which may result from winning a major contract; implementing a succession plan; securing investment funding or completing a sale or acquisition. It is also a Value Step when shareholder value is recovered with a successful turnaround.
In the public sector the Value Step may occur when a programme or Mission secures cross-party alignment with broad societal support; agrees a long-term, financed plan; and/or establishes its organisation and governance structure.
SME Business Advisory
A small team of proven and experienced business leaders, we are prepared to invest our time and capital to back our brains, courage and leadership to deliver our client’s desired outcomes. We judge the degree of intervention to suit the situation… enough to make the difference. Working with a group of associates, we offer a complete portfolio of skills and capabilities to suit the situation including operations, HR, corporate finance and accounting; communications; governance and company administration.
SME Investment Services
As Value Step Capital Partners LLC we invest sweat and cash equity in SME businesses in sectors with long-term potential. We enjoy working in partnership with management teams to generate significant, lasting value and shared reward.
Public Sector Advisory
The concept of the ValueStep applies in the Public Services, where the critical priorities for a policy or programme, have as much currency as in the private sector. We provide senior-level advisory, typically introduced below the competition threshold then procured as sub-consultant.
We have advised the European Investment Bank on a multi-billion Euro investment programme into a Balkan member state; we were part of a specialist research team which analysed the Small Modular Reactor nuclear programme; we are working on the implementation of Missions (in particular Secure Energy) and have contributed to an APPG submission on programme delivery

Commercial
Commercially, we are neither typical £/day consultants nor a traditional private equity house. We offer two approaches: (i) advisory services on a success-based leveraged fee, or (ii) full investment partnership. On each of these, our approach is similar. We put our own skin in the game and take a real share of risk and reward to align ourselves with our client’s successful outcome.
