Reitman Consulting Group

What Reitman Consulting Group does

Reitman Consulting Group, Inc. is a Fort Worth, Texas-based professional services firm founded in 2001 by Mitch Reitman that specializes exclusively in advisory services for the security, alarm, fire alarm, and systems integration industry. The firm operates five integrated service lines: Brokerage (M&A advisory and seller representation from valuation through closing), Transactional Support (buyer-side due diligence and deal structuring), Tax Compliance and Representation (federal, state, franchise, gross receipts, ad-valorem, and sales/use tax matters), Litigation Support (business valuation and expert testimony), and Back Office Support (bookkeeping through fractional CFO services). The team comprises two certified public accountants, nine support staff, and an attorney, collectively representing more than a century of combined industry-specific experience, led by Mitch Reitman whose career includes audit roles at Coopers & Lybrand and senior acquisition roles at Select Security and Protection One Alarm Monitoring.

The firm's underlying technology footprint is essentially nil — it is a relationship-driven advisory practice rather than a software or platform business, with no proprietary technology, APIs, mobile applications, or AI capabilities disclosed. Revenue is generated entirely through professional services fees on project-based engagements and ongoing advisory relationships, with pricing being quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The firm markets itself primarily through Mitch Reitman's leadership positions across the Electronic Security Association (ESA), the Alarm Industry Research and Educational Foundation (AIREF), the Texas Burglar & Fire Alarm Association (TBFAA), and the California Alarm Association, supplemented by content published in Security Sales & Integration and direct referrals from industry partners such as Kirschenbaum and Associates. Client concentration sits within a single narrow vertical — security and alarm business owners, acquirers, and litigation parties — with 300+ transactions completed over the firm's history and named testimonial relationships with entities such as Advanced Security Eureka and FisherBroyles, LLP.

Direct peers

• Sperry, Mitchell & Co. CPA and advisory firm long associated with tax and transactional work for the alarm industry, closely overlapping RCG's tax, due diligence, and succession planning services to the same vertical.
• Stoneridge Capital Partners: Investment bank focused on M&A advisory for the security, alarm, and low-voltage industries, directly overlapping RCG's core brokerage and transactional support practice with a similar seller and buyer universe.

Broad incumbents

• FE International: Mid-market M&A advisor with vertical niche practices; comparable in deal size and sell-side advisory model to RCG for security/alarm tuck-ins and platform deals, though serving a much broader industry set.
• Robert W. Baird & Co. Mid-to-large investment bank that runs M&A mandates for security and building solutions companies, overlapping RCG's brokerage and transactional support offering but with much broader industry coverage and deeper resources.
• Transworld Business Advisors: Large global business brokerage franchise that handles lower-middle-market M&A across many verticals including security services, overlapping RCG's brokerage motion but without the security-specific domain depth.
• VR Business Sales / Mergers & Acquisitions: Established business brokerage network serving main-street and lower-middle-market sellers, overlapping with RCG's brokerage service for security operators but without vertical specialization or tax/legal bundling.
• Sunbelt Business Brokers: Network of business brokerages that intermediates lower-middle-market company sales across numerous industries, comparable in business model to RCG's brokerage line but lacking a security industry specialization.
• Imperial Capital: Middle-market investment bank with a dedicated security and defense technology group that runs M&A mandates for alarm and monitoring companies, comparable in deal type but operating across a much broader sector footprint.
• BMO Capital Markets: Large investment bank with a security and building products practice that executes M&A for alarm and monitoring companies, comparable in transaction type but operating at a scale and geographic scope far beyond RCG.

Emerging players

• PKF Texas: Texas-based accounting and advisory firm with a security and alarm industry practice, competing with RCG on tax compliance and advisory work for the same Dallas-Fort Worth client mix but with a broader services portfolio.
