An outside view for the decisions that shape a business

Most businesses reach a point where the owner or leadership team knows something has to change, and has neither the time nor the outside view to work out what. Growth has stalled. The company has outgrown the way it's run. There's an acquisition on the table, or a market overseas that looks promising and unfamiliar.

O'Neill International Solutions works with owners and executives on those decisions. Our principal, Justin O'Neill, has led international sales for a publicly traded technology company, sits on the board of a company built through acquisitions, and owns and runs an operating business himself.

Services

Strategy and growth

We help you decide where to grow and what to stop doing. That covers new markets, new service lines, pricing, and a plan your team can carry out.

Operations and organization

We help companies that have outgrown the way they're run. That includes financial reporting and controls, management structure, and the systems an owner-led business needs before it can scale.

Acquisitions and integration

We advise owners who are buying or merging with another business on target selection, diligence and deal structure, and on combining the two companies after closing.

International expansion and government sales

We help you choose which markets to enter, find and vet local partners and distributors, and sell to governments in the United States and allied countries. Justin has worked in more than 30 countries and closed more than $200 million in international contracts.

Geopolitical advisory

We assess countries and regions against a commercial decision you need to make: where to sell, who to partner with, and what could derail a deal already in progress. Our view comes from doing business in these markets.

Working with us

Who we work with

We work with many kinds of businesses, from owner-operated service companies to technology firms selling to governments. Our own experience covers defense, technology, telecommunications, healthcare services and construction services.

How we work

Most engagements start with a referral and a conversation. We take on a small number of clients at a time, on a retainer or project basis, and the person you speak with is the person who does the work.

Compliance

In international work we comply with United States and local law in every market where we operate, including the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the UK Bribery Act 2010.
