Clearwater has advised Lonsdale Capital Partners and P2 Consulting (P2) on its sale to Waterland-backed Valcon Group (Valcon), a pan-European consultancy providing strategy and operational solutions with innovative technologies and data.

P2 is a UK centric Consulting organisation focusing on digital transformation from strategy execution to go-live implementation and all the programme and project management challenges that are essential to delivering well controlled and agile change for clients. P2 has a 200 strong workforce helping clients in a broad range of industries across the UK in their digital transformation, with notable strengths in financial services, utilities, retail and government.

The combination of P2 and Valcon’s current UK operations, which has a team of 100 experts focusing on data and technology, significantly strengthens the Group’s UK capabilities enabling the business to deliver end-to-end consulting solutions.

It has been a pleasure to work with the P2 team over the past five years and we wish them all the best as part of Valcon Group. Clearwater have provided invaluable support on this transaction. Their in-depth knowledge of the market, strategic buyers and sector experience gave us confidence throughout the whole process. Thank you to Rich, Paul, Dan and James for their support to get this transaction over the line.

We are really excited to become part of Valcon, through our discussions it is clear that Valcon have similar values to P2 and seek to add value to their clients by providing transformation support and Subject Matter Expertise in PMO, Testing, Data and Engineering. Our existing clients have been asking us for more help around the technology, data and cloud services that Valcon bring, and we are confident that Valcon’s European clients will benefit from P2’s transformation experience.

I am very excited about P2 joining us. We have known P2 for some time and are impressed with their track record and their people. The combination of P2 and our Valcon UK practice gives us the ability to help our joint clients even better and on a broader scale. Furthermore, we can also leverage P2’s experience in the Fincrime consulting area to our broader Dutch and Scandinavian client base.
