It is at the heart of the RSM Tenon strategy that the group has acquired accounting and advisory businesses to which it can add value in the form of enhanced performance and accelerated organic growth. Having successfully integrated our most recent acquisitions in the year ending 30 June 2011, RSM Tenon is currently entering a period of organic development, during which it expects to make no further acquisitions as the enlarged organisation demonstrates the benefits of broader services, scale and geography.
The group adds value through its focus on delivering against a set of clear and simple financial and non-financial KPIs. These set challenging but achievable continuous improvement targets related to revenue, margins, debt levels and shareholder return. They also support the enhancement of professional services by tracking and assigning a value to less clear-cut factors such as development and progression of our people, and the return on investments made in training and development.
This strategic approach has, for over a decade, enabled the group to continuously deliver – from a standing start in 2000 to be the UK’s 7th largest professional services firm in 2011. It is currently focused on opportunities for organic development arising from investments in the brand, co-ordinated cross-service line and external initiatives, and leveraging the RSMi global network.
