Valuations of government contractors vary widely and are driven by certain qualitative and quantitative company-specific factors. Understanding both sides is critical to an owner in order for that owner to effectively maximize shareholder value over the long-term.

What are the top value drivers, qualitative and quantitative, that support value in the government contracting marketplace?
How do you successfully increase those value drivers over time?
What is a realistic timeframe for you to map out?
At what point will thoughts about an exit event change your strategic planning?
What questions or concerns do you have on such topics?
