ABOUT

COLE GLOBAL ENTERPRISE

Cole Global Enterprise, Inc. was established in 2004 with a foundation in operational improvement, enterprise technology, and operational consulting. That experience informs CGE’s approach to acquiring and improving manufacturing and industrial companies.

CGE focuses on businesses where disciplined execution and targeted modernization can materially improve performance. Our operating approach brings together business process expertise, supply chain and enterprise systems knowledge, AI, automation, robotics, analytics and performance management.

Rather than pursuing broad, unrelated investment strategies, CGE is building a focused platform around the areas where its operating experience can be most relevant: manufacturing, industrial operations, and technology-enabled value creation.

HISTORICAL EXPERIENCE AND CURRENT STRATEGY

CGE’s historical operating and consulting experience informs its investment approach and provides valuable industry knowledge. However, this historical experience should not be interpreted as a track record of the Spring Ahead strategy unless specifically supported by the applicable investment documentation.

Spring Ahead represents a distinct current investment strategy focused on established manufacturing and industrial businesses. Its investment approach, objectives, and performance should be evaluated separately from CGE’s historical operating and consulting experience, based on the applicable investment documentation.

APPROACH

The CGE approach to creating value focuses on unlocking potential that others cannot see. CGE provides advantage through a disciplined investment focus on companies that provide mission-critical industrial and technology-enabled solutions and offer opportunities for growth and improvement in their operations. We partner with world-class management teams across our companies, which aim to grow and reach their full potential, and utilize our dedicated team of operational experts to generate lasting value through the implementation of best practices.

CGE brings engineering-like process, focus, and discipline to the value creation process. We have created a scalable model by developing best practices that help improve a company’s efficiency and profitability and enhance its growth opportunities. Best practices are created by and for CGE’s management teams, and touch on all aspects of growth and operational strategies, and seek to capture and share collective learnings across the CGE ecosystem.

We believe the market opportunity for investing in industrial and technology companies remains strong. The pursuit of operational excellence, demonstrated execution capability, and patient capital remains CGE’s winning combination for long-term success.
