Corporate Services

Large corporations today are looking for one source to provide a variety of surplus asset solutions.  Great American Group has combined its world-class services into an integrated offering  to provide a seamless approach to help our clients identify, value, redeploy and dispose of surplus and idle equipment and inventory. 

These services are provided by experts in our various business units and delivered in a centralized program that gives direction and control to our clients.  This suite of services can be individually utilized or as part of an overall package. 

Asset Identification

We provide facility audit and inventory reporting services.  Companies’ resources today are stretched thin.  When changes occur within an organization (acquisitions, divestitures, consolidations, mergers, outsourcing), there is often a need for reconciliation of installed or stored assets.  This allows the stakeholders to gain greater visibility into their manufacturing or inventory base. 

Appraisal and Valuation

Whether for asset-based loans, leasing, boot collateral financing, tax purposes or international asset transfers, the need for valuation and appraisal requirements is ongoing.  Our professionals deliver these services with experts in a variety of asset classes. Our practice expertise covers the following areas: Machinery and Equipment, Real Estate, Intellectual Property, Wholesale and Industrial Inventories, Financial Reporting and Tax and Advisory Services. 

Asset Redeployment

Surplus asset visibility is very important in today’s changing corporate environment.  We provide an easy-to-use tool, “Asset View,” that helps clients simplify this process.  It allows assets to be posted and then viewed via the web by interested parties within an organization. 

Disposition

We provide a variety of tactics to dispose of surplus assets and inventory.  Our core strength is the understanding of most asset classes and developing the right method to extract maximum value.  Our flexible processes and technology allow us to handle the sale of single assets as well as multiple facilities.  We utilize live/webcast auctions, online sale events, liquidations and sealed bid sales in a variety of combinations.  Tailored marketing programs use both traditional and the newest web strategies to attract a global buying audience. 

By combining these services into an end-to-end solution for managing surplus assets, clients drive the highest use and value for their equipment and inventory.  Our best practices give us the ability to deliver these services across our client’s enterprise.
