At Sage, we often find ourselves assisting clients in understanding the significant environmental risks and liabilities associated with a proposed transaction. We also assist in understanding the culture of the target entity, the governance practices employed, and any emerging regulatory issues. Sage can help perform the following:

Strong pre-planning and assembly of the proper environmental disclosures can expedite most mergers and acquisitions. In these transactions where time is of the essence and setbacks can cause concern, Sage is happy to help. For example, early recognition of a deal’s potential liabilities and assets can aid negotiating teams in reaching early consensus. Early transparency reduces last minute surprises. Sage can help formulate your divestiture plan by performing the following:

Business Divestiture Strategy Development

"Sage has provided key environmental assistance to several Mohawk Business Units including multi-national acquisition work, major source air permitting and numerous other projects. Mohawk has always found Sage's team approach, putting the best resources to ensure the success of the project, and to be very cost effective. I would highly recommend Sage's services to any of my colleagues."
