Engineering Labor Without the Payroll

Business Plan

TechVisor Group operates as a strategic roll-up of profitable automation firms, built around a centralized engineering talent model.

We serve small and mid-sized U.S. manufacturers who need automation to stay competitive but can’t afford full-time engineering staff.

Revenue Streams Include:

• Automation equipment sales ($10K–$250K per system)

• Engineering integration services (billed at 3x cost)

• Consulting and audits

• Recurring revenue from maintenance contracts

Financial Highlights:

• Combined $11.3M revenue and $1.56M EBITDA from targets under negotiation

• 20–25% gross margins

• Scalable business model with recurring revenue

• Strong investor fit for those interested in high-margin, M&A-driven manufacturing tech

Team
Led by seasoned experts across engineering, finance, and operations:

• Steve Dobson, P.E., Chairman
  40+ years in industrial automation, 300+ projects delivered

• Deb Dobson, CEO & CFO
  30+ years in manufacturing finance, post-M&A financial leadership

• Jeff Cichocki, COO
  23+ years in IT/ops, expert in bridging IT and engineering for manufacturers

• TBA, Managing Director
  Acquisition partner bringing operational expertise from target company

Competitive Advantage
TechVisor isn’t just selling automation. We’re selling labor relief—and that distinction is key.

What sets us apart:

• Central Engineering Pool: Shared talent reduces costs, increases project bandwidth

• M&A Strategy: Roll-up model accelerates growth and multiplies value

• Customer Loyalty: 20-year client relationships based on quality and trust

• Recurring Revenue: Maintenance and service contracts build long-term stability

• Execution Track Record: 300+ projects, highly profitable acquisition targets

Why Now
The U.S. manufacturing sector is at a turning point.

• The CHIPS Act, Inflation Reduction Act, and reshoring trends are pushing production back to U.S. soil

• Labor shortages have become a critical bottleneck, threatening growth

• AI and automation adoption is surging—but most SMEs still lack the resources to implement it

TechVisor sits squarely at the intersection of this opportunity, delivering the labor-saving technology U.S. manufacturers need—at a price point they can afford.
