About Our Firm:

In a world where 70% to 90% of all Mergers & Acquisitions (M&As) fail to achieve strategic and financial objectives with reasons often attributed to HR-related factors, Optimatum is here to solve the issues in this market which continues to grow despite today’s volatile business climate.

We are a New York City-based vendor management firm that focuses exclusively on the HR supply chain. Our turnkey solutions improve the financial and operational performance of health care plans for our clients located nationwide through our unique multidisciplinary approach, which includes forensic analysis and the maintenance of existing vendor relationships, while at the same time increasing transparency and accountability.

The net impact of our work is meaningful reductions in cost while at the same time improved plan performance and vendor optimization. Our employer sponsored health care group enables clients to reap direct efficiencies of 10% to 12% on their healthcare costs within one year, and 5% to 7% in subsequent years while maintaining existing vendors and current benefits without shifting costs.

Our team thinks and acts both strategically and tactically in the development of new business. We deliver clear bottom-line business value propositions to establish effective relationships with CEOs and CFOs to execute against sector, target and account strategies. Through our HR Transitional Services for Acquisitions & Divestitures, we are at the epicenter of the M&A due diligence and integration process delivering expedited deal closure and accelerated harvesting of post day-one synergies which all reduced target employee integration risk.
