NIBC Investment Partners supports CostPerform in its growth ambitions

Thanks to more than 20 years of experience, its global partner network and unique software platform, CostPerform has become the leader in cost and performance management software.

CostPerform was founded in 2001 and is located in Vianen. The software allows CostPerform’s customers to allocate their cost base to individual products, departments or other dimensions, to create insight in profitability and steer management decisions.

The Assignment

CostPerform’s management shareholders were looking for a partner that is able to support the company’s future growth strategy. With its financial expertise, broader portfolio of fast-growing companies and experience with internationalisation, NIBC Investment Partners is able to support this growth strategy, whilst the management shareholders were able to increase their shareholding and founders were partially bought out.

Adding Value

As a partner, NIBC Investment Partners will support the growth strategy of CostPerform together with Arches Capital by acting as a (strategic and financial) sparring partner to the management shareholders, with experience in successfully rolling out both an organic growth strategy as well as executing a buy and build strategy.

Delivering Results

Organizations throughout the world increasingly face challenges in the field of cost management, both in a downward market to rationalize costs as well as in an upward market to optimize product and service portfolios. NIBC Investment Parters is convinced of the market potential for CostPerform, given the clear added value of CostPerform for profit optimization as well as for fiscal and regulatory reporting with specific opportunities for regulatory costing in Telco and Financial Services.
