Project Vanguard
Project Vanguard is a buy-side acquisition initiative led by a high-performing MSP platform backed by a strong private equity firm. Project Vanguard is known for its concierge-level service, pod-based delivery, and 94%+ client retention.
Project Vanguard embraces a client-first approach with weekly meetings and tailored solutions that sidestep cookie-cutter methods, while rewarding dedication with accountability and loyalty. What sets them apart even further is their strong team cohesion and mentorship, cultivated through in-office collaboration, creating a vibrant, aligned culture that fuels their outstanding success.
The ideal partner is an MSP with strong recurring revenue, a loyal client base, and a team that values quality over volume. Project Vanguard prioritizes cultural fit, client intimacy, and operational excellence, and offers flexible deal structures including equity rollover, staged exits, and long-term alignment.
