Our Services

  • Business Recovery

    Our Turnaround expertise includes extensive experience dealing with difficult people and situations.  Our track record in multi-party dispute resolution and crisis situations allows us to quickly assess a situation, identify core problems and create practical solutions.  Whether we are assisting businesses in financial or operational distress, or assisting investors and financial institutions, we are committed to the rehabilitation and restoration of stakeholder value.

    Court Supervised Proceedings

    Our work encompasses formal proceedings in Canada under the CCAA and the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (BIA), and Chapter 11 and 15 proceedings in the United States.  Services include mediation and arbitration advisory, acquisitions and divestitures, and out-of-court restructurings.

    Financial Remediation

    We will help you achieve balance sheet transformation.  We have a highly regarded track record assisting clients with under-performing businesses and ineffective organizational structures.

     

  • Strategic Planning

    BlueTree Advisors go further than mere suggestions; we help clients develop corporate and business unit strategies that improve operating performance. Our goal is to help senior executives take new perspectives on competitive strategies that build on their own market and competitive insights. We focus on execution of strategies by developing tactics that target implementation, and we oversee that implementation. Accountability for execution and timelines is integral to our solutions.

    Labor Negotiations

    Leading labour negotiations between unionized and non-unionized employees, including the CAW and the United Steelworkers of America and Canada, we have domestic and international experience in multi-party negotiations and dispute resolution.

    Specialized Restructuring Experience

    You benefit from our unique expertise and skills, which are different than those provided by lawyers, investment bankers or accounting firms.  By handling court preparation and appearances, negotiations and meetings, we free your management teams to focus on operations.

  • Investment Banking

    We provide specialized corporate finance solutions by sourcing the appropriate capital structure for your business.  We structure financing alternatives in private and public equity and debt markets.  We advise how to retain maximum ownership and control of your business when dealing with sources of financing. We participate in the structuring and implementation of mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, management and leveraged buyouts, and raising capital for growth or restructuring.

    Organizational Development

    BlueTree Advisors assist in addressing the organizational issues in our clients’ businesses, including executive recruiting and assessment.  We have completed many recruiting assignments in a variety of industry sectors, including energy, manufacturing, industrial, telecommunications, retail, financial services and professional services.
