Situation

Geodynamics, LLC (“Geodynamics”) is a North Carolina-based leading provider of oceanic geospatial surveying and data analysis to the marine construction and offshore engineering industries. After being awarded a large contract from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (“NOAA”), Geodynamics found itself on the radar of larger consulting firms.

 

ZS Role

After working with Geodynamics for a number of years to prepare for a potential exit, Zachary Scott was engaged as the exclusive financial advisor to represent the shareholders of Geodynamics in a potential sale to NV5 Global Inc. (“NV5”), a publicly-held technical engineering and consulting services company headquartered in Hollywood, Florida.

 

Result

Geodynamics was acquired by NV5, helping NV5’s continued growth strategy to strengthen its geospatial surveying capabilities and service operations.
