Diligent Consulting Inc is a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business delivering IT services to government clients with CMMI-DEV Level 3 and ISO 9001:2015 certifications. The company operates four business lines: Professional Services, Cybersecurity and Intelligence Solutions, Software Development and Application Modernization, and Logistics Systems. Access to their services runs through GSA MAS and ENCORE III contract vehicles, providing streamlined procurement for federal agencies nationwide. The cybersecurity and intelligence practice works with Microsoft Sentinel, Elastic SIEM, and Zero Trust Architecture implementations. Their technical stack includes Python and PowerShell for automation, Logic Apps for orchestration, and CI/CD pipelines. They handle Risk Management Framework compliance work - the kind of unglamorous, essential security infrastructure that government systems actually run on. The team also applies their proprietary Evolution Solution to document, map, and transform legacy systems, addressing the technical debt problem that plagues federal IT modernization efforts. Their software development operation spans the full lifecycle, from legacy system transformation to modern application development. CEO David Cerminaro leads a company structure built around repeatable process - CMMI-DEV Level 3 accreditation means documented practices for requirements management, project planning, and quality assurance. The veteran-owned designation and contract vehicle access signal deep familiarity with federal procurement mechanics, security clearance processes, and the specific compliance requirements that govern government IT work.

In 2012, Par Pacific Holdings began with a vision to bring together decades-long histories of established energy businesses: Wyoming Refining Company, US Oil, Par Montana, and Par Hawaii. The founders recognized that traditional energy companies were overlooking complex markets where local communities needed reliable, dedicated fuel providers. They saw an opportunity to combine deep industry experience with financial acumen to serve these logistically-challenged markets that larger competitors often neglected. Today, Par Pacific owns and operates one of the largest energy networks in Hawaii, with additional refining and logistics assets across the Pacific Northwest and Rockies. The company operates four refineries with 219,000 barrels per day of combined capacity, owns 549 miles of pipeline and 13 million barrels of storage, and runs retail brands including Hele, 76, and nomnom. Under the leadership of CEO William Monteleone, Par Pacific continues to pursue operational excellence while expanding into renewable fuels and maintaining a commitment to the communities they serve.

Crosslake Technologies conducts technical due diligence and risk assessment for private equity deals where software and infrastructure are material to valuation. Since 2010, the firm has evaluated over 6,000 technology investments for 500+ PE firms globally, focusing on threat surface mapping, technical debt quantification, and operational security posture before capital commits. Their proprietary TechIndicators® platform benchmarks target companies against $30 billion in transaction data - measuring everything from cloud architecture hygiene to identity management maturity across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments. The threat model here is investor exposure: acquirers inheriting unpatched systems, weak access controls, or compliance gaps that crater post-close valuations. Crosslake's practitioners - former senior executives averaging 20+ years in the field - assess Active Directory configurations, EDR/MDR deployment, and authentication frameworks like Office365 and G Suite to surface hidden liabilities. They also deploy interim CISOs into portfolio companies during integration windows when security leadership is absent or transitional. Beyond diligence, the firm provides strategic advisory on technology integration and value creation post-acquisition. This includes rationalization of overlapping security tooling, remediation roadmaps for critical vulnerabilities, and infrastructure consolidation across merged entities. The work is empirical and transactional - no vision decks, just concrete risk registers and benchmarked security postures that shape deal terms or kill transactions outright.
