Acquisition Opportunity Makovich & Pusti Architects was acquired by CPL via BaseRock Partners in late 2023, signaling a transition in ownership and potential cross-sell opportunities with CPL’s multi-disciplinary services to MPA clients and projects.

Growth Gap With a revenue range of 1M to 10M and a small to mid-size employee base (11-50), MPA presents an opportunity for scalable services such as project management optimization, technology adoption, and BIM/AI-enabled design workflows to boost efficiency.

Tech Enablement Current tech stack includes Fullstory, Snowplow, OpenAI, and PayPal on Squarespace, suggesting openness to digital marketing optimization, analytics-driven sales, and AI-assisted design collaborations to win larger public/private sector contracts.

Market Positioning Historical expansion into interior design and a notable acquisition in 1996 indicates a versatile service offering. This positions MPA to pursue integrated architecture and interior design packages for government and commercial clients seeking turnkey solutions.

Strategic Fit As a regional architecture firm with a legacy in Berea, Ohio, MPA could benefit from partnerships with larger national firms, including cross-referral of public-sector bidding opportunities and joint ventures to expand geographic reach and project scope.
