Business for Sale Overview:
The March Group currently represents a specialist firm in the custom design, manufacture, and installation of world class protective crash-rated perimeter security barriers, gates, and fences for private and public companies as well as government agencies. Major installations include the World Bank in Washington, D.C., the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the New York Power Authority, and many other owners of the nation’s critical infrastructure and key assets, such as military facilities, federal government facilities, state and local government facilities, dams, nuclear facilities, ports, communications infrastructure, and embassies, among many other critical assets. The Company’s top-of-the-line product is designed to withstand the impact of an 80-ton vehicle at 50 miles per hour, which is more than five times the requirement of the State Department’s highest crash rating. Management is committed to complete customer satisfaction and is dedicated to delivering the highest possible quality standards within its manufacturing process. Maintains a well planned and organized Web site, providing a wealth of information on the Company’s history, its crash-rated product line, and the depth of its manufacturing expertise.

Property Features and Assets:
The Company leases 7,000 square feet of office and manufacturing space at approximately $12 per square foot. Lease includes taxes but not utilities.
Market Competition and Expansion:
Management expects to continue to capitalize on its excellent industry reputation and the extremely positive economic factors currently favoring its space. The following expansion efforts are now planned to fully capitalize on the expected future growth in its industry:
Expand and update marketing capabilities
Introduce new products and OEM components
Expand services vertically to provide greater value to facilities’ owners
Standardize parts and materials for greater production cost efficiencies
Capitalize on the Company’s engineering and design expertise.
Thus far, this Company has mostly targeted federal programs, where the government is the facility owner or where there is a federally mandated security upgrade required (such as airports, nuclear facilities, refineries, etc.), often paid by federal grants. The facility owners may be municipal or state authorities that procure through designers and contractors, but may retain purchasing authority.
However, Management now intends to target facility owners directly with its broad range of products and services, to take advantage of its engineering and design strengths. In addition, the Company intends to target more private facility owners with the objective of negotiating sole source agreements which will provide a wide range of design and project management expertise and services, including related security product offerings.
This Company differentiates itself from its competitors by providing custom design and manufacturing when standard industry products are unsatisfactory or cannot be installed. No other competitors’ products can compare to the quality, strength, innovation and reliability of products offered by this Company.
According to estimates from the Chivitas Group, private sector spending on Homeland Security and Homeland Defense products and services is projected to grow at an annual rate of 10% over the next five years, with public sector spending estimated to grow 5% annualized. The total domestic market is forecast between $115 billion and $150 billion by 2013.
