## Eighteen partner brands, still trading under their own names.

*Two-way collaboration*

- **18** Regional partner brands under one service standard
- **950+** Employees, most of them long-tenured local technicians
- **18,000+** Customers served across the family of companies

## Resources you couldn't access alone.

*What you gain*

Everything a growing fire protection business needs, without giving up what makes it yours.

### Entrepreneurial autonomy

Your name stays on the trucks. You get guardrails and guidelines, not mandates. The business you built stays yours to run.

### Back office firepower

HR, payroll, technology, sales infrastructure, and operations support: the overhead a small business can't carry alone.

### Marketing & demand gen

Real help penetrating your local market, with campaigns and lead generation built to grow your book of business.

### Network & community

Sister branches 30 minutes down the road you can lean on. You're no longer going it alone when a job gets big.

### Market development

Alarm-and-suppression only and couldn't launch sprinkler on your own? We help you build the line: hiring, guidance, resources.

### Purchasing power

Better platform pricing with manufacturer partners, plus national accounts your size could never win alone.

### Employee benefits

Weekly pay, better holidays, sick time, and a 401(k): benefits stronger than a small business can usually offer.

### Industry experts

Leading experts on the team who shepherd owners through the evolution, step by step.

### ONE Altus

Keep your branding. You join a family of companies, not a rebrand, and your identity stays intact.

## Build on what works. Strengthen what comes next.

*How integration works*

We start where support will make the biggest difference, preserve what’s working, and introduce new capabilities thoughtfully, so your team can stay focused on customers.

Now

### Fix what needs help first

Payroll and benefits move fast: the things that make life better for your team right away.

~Day 75

### Bring in what's working, when it's ready

Sales and marketing come later, on purpose. If it's already working, we don't rush to change it.

~Day 90

### Every part of the business, thoughtfully

By around day 90 we've touched the whole business, without a new sign going up overnight.

## Partners aren't line items.

*The part that matters most*

Selling your business is a big decision, and it isn't only yours. It affects your technicians, your schedulers, and the part-time office assistant quietly wondering what comes next.

We get that, and it is why we emphasize the people part of any partnership and focus on it just as much as the numbers in any integration. Your business is your team, and you've spent years looking out for them. That does not change when you join the Altus Family of Companies.

For your customers, the best-in-class experience you have been delivering stays the same. It's the same local name, the same number to call, and the same technicians they already know and trust, just now backed by a stronger family.

## Backed for growth, built for the long term.

Altus is supported by patient investment that exists to help partner businesses grow, to fund the people, tools, and market development that let a good local company become a great regional one. It's fuel for what you're building, not a change to who you are.
