The DCA team brought several assets to the business relationship that in my sense separated them from others in their field. First, they became subject matter experts in the unique aspects of our field, products, model, and market in remarkably short order. Second, they pushed us in focusing on every detail that increased our chances of success. Finally, their tireless effort and mindset resulted in a successful outcome for Synovia, the shareholders and the for the buyer.

Dave Dolan and the DC Advisory team came into this transaction with a strong reputation for prior experience in this industry and it clearly showed throughout the process as they deftly guided Synovia to a tremendous outcome for all employees and shareholders. The DC Advisory team committed tremendous resources to this process and went well above and beyond from the beginning of the deal to the ultimate closing.
