This isn't just a transaction to us. You've spent years building your business, and your people show up every day because they trust you.
When we acquire a business, the name stays. The team stays. We spend our first 90 days learning: the processes, the customers, the people, how the business really works, where the friction is, and what excellence looks like from the inside.
Building on what you've built isn't just a promise. It's the foundation of our value creation plan.
Two operators. Thirty years of combined experience. One business at a time.
Kolawole Alawaiye
DC, Maryland and Virginia
Kola is an industrial engineer who spent years running programs worth over $200M at Northrop Grumman, building and leading teams across Microsoft and PepsiCo. He has managed the kind of operations where a missed deadline has real consequences for real people.
Before Harkright, Olaniyi managed field infrastructure across more than 300 sites at Crown Castle, coordinating crews, subcontractors, and equipment across multiple states. He knows what breaks at 6am on a job site and what it costs when it does. He has also advised businesses on strategy and growth at BCG and led acquisition work inside a Fortune 500.
The first ninety days are about learning, not changing. We want to understand what made this business worth buying before we presume to make it better.
02
We are here for the long term.
We are not building toward a sale. The business we buy is not a stepping stone. It is the thing we are building.
03
We are still in the room
After the check clears, we are still showing up. The people who bought the business are the people running it.
Our focus
What we look for
B2B service businesses that other businesses depend on: industrial services, environmental services, and government-adjacent services
