TSA Advisory LLC is a 100% buyer-side independent advisory firm. We negotiate, manage, and exit Transition Services Agreements for private equity firms and corporate buyers. Fixed-fee proposals in 48 hours.
Every Transition Services Agreement starts with the same structural disadvantage. The seller's lawyers draft. The seller's finance team prices. The seller's IT team scopes. The buyer signs under deal pressure and lives with the consequences for 18 months.
Cost-plus pricing with 30 to 50 percent mark-ups. Bundled services you do not need. Pass-through costs that are not actually passed through. Most TSAs are quietly priced 20 to 40 percent above fair market.
Extension fees that escalate to 150 percent of base. Service withdrawals if you miss a milestone. Termination clauses that protect the seller, not you. The exit ramp is designed to punish delay.
Service-level commitments without teeth. Governance committees the seller controls. Disputes that drag for months. Your portfolio company's value creation plan is held hostage to a contract no one on your team negotiated.
We work with PE operating partners, portfolio company CFOs and CIOs, and corporate divestiture offices. Every engagement is buyer-side. Every engagement is scoped before work begins. No hourly billing.
Before you sign. Service catalog audit, pricing benchmarks, exit clause leverage. We pressure-test the TSA your deal team is about to accept.
