Safe T Professionals' recent investment by a
strategic partner marks Capstone's second transaction in the safety
sub-sector within the past twelve months; strategic acquirers
leading interest
BOSTON, Oct. 8, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Capstone Partners, a leading middle market
investment banking firm, sees growth ahead for construction safety
management space with the recent investment in Safe T
Professionals—a construction-focused safety management consulting
firm—by a strategic partner.
Capstone advised Safe T Professionals on the transaction and
says the deal reflects increasing outsourced safety management
consulting and services among facility stakeholders, which has
directly influenced the sector's M&A environment. This is
Capstone's second completed transaction in the past 12 months in
the safety management and consulting space, following the
acquisition of worksite safety consulting firm HazTek by Code Red
Safety. Both transactions were completed with strategic partners
looking to capitalize on the tailwinds and add complementary safety
expertise to their current service offering.
Capstone's latest Environmental Health & Safety Market
Update highlights the evolving and complex safety regulations
that are increasingly incentivizing facility stakeholders,
contractors and EHS departments to outsource comprehensive safety
management services. Given the elevated demand, the report
projected that strategic and private equity buyers' investment
appetite is expected to continue to rebound into 2025 and beyond.
The current valuation environment has fared well for prospective
sellers as competition among buyers and valuations have remained
strong.
Founded in 2011 and based in Chandler,
AZ, Safe T Professionals is a leader in safety consulting
and manager outsourcing. The company provides safety training,
oversight, reporting, and management of all third-party contractors

"This is the second client providing outsourced safety
management that Capstone Partners has advised in the past year,"
said Chris Cardinale, Director at
Capstone Partners. "We are witnessing intense interest in safety
consulting/management companies from ancillary sectors including
risk management, safety equipment rental/turnaround services,
safety products distribution, and janitorial/sanitation products
and services. This interest reflects the mission-critical nature
these services represent as a jumping off point for related
products and services."
