New Private Equity Partnership Expands Our Potential for Positive Impact

Today represents an important mile marker in Consor’s journey. After eight years with Keystone Capital, we’ve transitioned our private equity partnership to New Mountain Capital, a leading growth-oriented investment firm. This shift provides an opportunity to build on our legacy with a great pool of resources. Our commitment to delivering a better experience—for our people, partners, and communities—remains the cornerstone of our practice, now enhanced by more opportunities for our team members to grow as technical experts and engage in portfolio-defining projects.

“New Mountain is our ideal partner. They not only believe in our long-term vision but also bring extensive industry experience that will help us expand our potential,” said Chris Rayasam, CEO of Consor. “We’re excited about the many ways New Mountain will help support our growth through long-term strategic planning, technological expertise, and operational efficiency. This partnership will help us cultivate more career opportunities for our team members and make an even greater impact on the communities we serve.”

While our roots go back as far as 1980, the Consor name manifested in 2018 when several consulting firms joined forces to create a unified brand. The vision for Consor was simple, yet unique: assemble local leaders across North America to create a national infrastructure consulting firm with an entrepreneurial spirit and culture of collaboration and knowledge-sharing. Since then, Consor’s expansion has rippled from north to south and from coast to coast, filling out its North American footprint and adding complementary services to its tool belt.

Lars Johansson, Managing Director at New Mountain, said, “Our investment in Consor is the result of New Mountain’s long-standing effort investing in infrastructure services and technology businesses. Chris and the leadership team have built an outstanding business with expertise in key end markets we believe in and that have continual growth opportunities. We are excited to partner with the entire Consor team to continue their strategy of building a legacy as the team of choice for delivering infrastructure solutions.”

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Consor to continue to elevate their brand as industry leaders,” said Joe Walker, Managing Director at New Mountain. “We are looking forward to helping Consor expand its geographic reach and service offerings, through a combination of best-in-class organic growth and strategic M&A, to achieve its long-term vision.”

With increasingly complex infrastructure challenges on the horizon, it’s more important than ever to develop solutions that reflect the unique fabric and context of each local community. We believe this ability to bridge local insights with industry-renowned technical experts is one of our key strengths.

Ever committed to growth and innovation, we’re entering this new chapter with a renewed drive to solve complex infrastructure challenges that will positively impact communities from the inside out.
