The value creation gap

Only 23% of PE firms systematically track value creation plan execution.

Board meetings generate commitments. Nobody tracks whether they get done. The gap between “decided” and “done” is where value creation stalls.

150+

board-level commitments per quarter across a typical mid-market portfolio.

CEO hires a new CRO. CFO restructures reporting. Operating partner deploys a procurement playbook. Each commitment has an owner and a deadline. But no system of record.

Based on 15 portcos, 10-15 commitments per board

2 days per week

The average portfolio operations team spends on manual coordination: compiling board follow-ups, reconciling VCPs, chasing commitment owners across portcos.

Commitments evaporate

Board agreements are forgotten within a quarter. Without a definitive record, the next board deck is the first time anyone checks.

VCPs go stale

Value creation plans in Excel are last updated two board cycles ago. The gap between plan and reality grows silently until the quarterly review.

How In Parallel helps

From board meeting to value creation plan. Automatically.

01

Automatic board commitment capture

In Parallel joins your portfolio company board meetings and extracts every commitment, owner, deadline, and full context. No manual minutes. No disputes about what was agreed.

02

Living value creation plan

Your VCPs update themselves from board signals. When the CEO commits to a sales restructure, the value creation plan reflects it immediately. No more stale Excel files.

03

Cross-portco visibility

One view of every commitment across every portfolio company. See which playbooks are deployed where. Know which commitments are slipping before the quarterly review.

04

Scale without headcount

Adding 4 portcos next fund? In Parallel scales with your portfolio, per-portco pricing, no additional overhead. Your ops team stays lean while coverage grows.
