M&A Deal Origination
Finding acquisition targets that fit your vision
Finding the right acquisition targets is one of the most critical stages of any M&A strategy. At CJPI, we support investors, corporates and entrepreneurs in identifying and evaluating opportunities that align with strategic objectives. Using structured market mapping, intelligence gathering and tailored origination support, we help our clients uncover the right deals before competitors do.

The M&A Challenge
Many organisations and investors struggle to find the right targets. Internal teams often lack the bandwidth or reach, and traditional approaches can be reactive, leaving the best opportunities undiscovered. Without a structured process, buy-side efforts risk being inefficient, costly and misaligned with long-term strategy.
We combine rigorous research, market intelligence and sector expertise to deliver a tailored origination process. Our team works closely with leadership to understand strategic priorities, investment criteria, thesis and value drivers. We then conduct structured market scans, competitor and sector analysis, and direct outreach to identify, qualify and engage with potential targets.
Find Great Opportunities
We help identify and assess opportunities aligned to your long-term goals, whether platform plays or bolt-ons.
We start by looking at sector scans, target profiling and building a research-led market map that identifies off-market targets and the key decision-makers behind them. Using real-time signals and deep commercial insight, we can enhance this process by including early indicators of potential interest or change.
From there, we run discreet, personalised outreach campaigns, engaging targets directly, assessing interest and strategic fit – presenting qualified opportunities that merit your attention.
