Nick Bosch • Director of Global Product Development & Management

We can test things out without taking on additional headcount. It de-risks every potential opportunity. Catalant experts required significantly less oversight than traditional consultants, eliminating the need for excessive project management.

Suzanne Roeder • Chief Business Operations Officer

In a hyper-growth startup, sometimes you err on the side of speed and benefit of the doubt and cut corners, but Catalant helped us move fast without sacrificing quality.

The experts required significantly less project management than traditional consultants.

Business Case

Achieves 21,675% ROI with $2M Savings on M&A Inventory Analysis

Perch

Perch, a hypergrowth ecommerce startup that quadrupled in size and hired 80+ employees in one day, lacked an HR department and risked overpaying for acquisitions. Through Catalant, they found an HR leader within 4 hours who started 30 hours later, creating their first parental leave policy and securing legal authority in 10 states. An expert analyst discovered a manufacturer's inventory was valued at $3M not $5M, saving $2M on a project costing just $9,185.

Key Results
  • 21,675% ROI on inventory analysis project
  • $2 million saved on acquisition (was $5M, actually $3M)
  • Project cost only $9,185
