JMH Capital Partners has sold ALL4 to Levine Leichtman Capital Partners

ALL4

ALL4 is a global consulting firm delivering mission-critical technical solutions that enable clients to meet environmental compliance, safety and sustainability goals. By empowering organizations to navigate complex regulatory landscapes, ALL4 helps drive sustainable success. Serving over 900 clients across more than 1,250 sites in the Americas and Europe, the company’s team of 325+ professionals delivers expertise across a comprehensive suite of environmental solutions. These include air quality, environmental health & safety (EH&S), digital and sustainability services tailored to industries such as manufacturing, utilities & energy, pulp & paper and pharma & life sciences.

The Deal

JMH Capital Partners (JMH) made its initial investment in ALL4 in 2018. During their partnership, ALL4 achieved significant growth, completing five add-on acquisitions and three acqui-hires to expand its geographic footprint and enhance its service offerings. The company also invested heavily in internal operating systems, strategic hires and innovative sales and marketing strategies, all of which drove exceptional organic growth. These efforts transformed ALL4 from a small, air quality-focused team into one of the industry’s premier environmental consulting firms.

Having successfully achieved its growth objectives, JMH and ALL4 partnered with Lincoln International to identify the company’s next partner. Lincoln’s targeted outreach leveraged its unique perspectives and deep relationships to target investors with the cultural alignment, relevant experience and resources to support ALL4 through its next chapter of growth. The process prioritized potential partners that could not only strengthen ALL4’s operational platform while maintaining its growth trajectory, but also share the company’s core values and long-term strategic vision. This intentional approach ensured that the selected partner would support ALL4’s continued success and maximize its ability to deliver mission-critical environmental solutions to clients worldwide.

Bill Straub, ALL4 Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Lincoln proved to be the ideal advisor in our search for the right partner. They worked tirelessly to connect us with investors that shared our values and growth vision. From the onset, the cultural alignment between ALL4, JMH and Lincoln was evident, and we’re grateful for their help in connecting us with Levine Leichtman Capital Partners (LLCP), who we believe is an outstanding fit for our organization. We’re excited to collaborate with LLCP and leverage their expertise, employee ownership focus and experience in the professional services arena as we execute our ambitious growth plans in the years ahead.”
