How a large private equity platform enabled 12 portfolio companies to scale faster, cut operating costs, and retain autonomy through custom offshore teams.

 

Overview

A large, private equity–backed technology holding company partnered with Connext Global Solutions to support rapid growth across its portfolio. With each operating company maintaining its own culture, systems, and workflows, the firm needed a staffing model that delivered scale and cost efficiency—without centralization or disruption.

Rather than using a traditional BPO, 12 portfolio companies built dedicated offshore teams through Connext across IT support, engineering, accounting, and back-office operations. The result: faster scaling, meaningful cost savings, and a repeatable staffing framework designed for decentralized private equity platforms.

Key Highlights

  1. Tailored Offshore Teams for 12 Portfolio Companies
    Each business unit operates with its own dedicated Connext team—no shared labor pools, no forced standardization, and complete alignment to their workflows, tools, and quality expectations.
  2. Broad Functional Coverage Across IT, Finance & Operations
    Connext supports a diverse set of roles, including IT help desk technicians, NOC and automation engineers, AP/AR specialists, collections teams, and back-office staff—providing true multi-discipline scalability.
  3. Significant Cost Savings & Accelerated Scaling
    Portfolio companies achieved up to 60–70% labor cost savings while rapidly deploying specialized roles that are expensive or difficult to hire locally—allowing them to scale efficiently without compromising quality.
