Streamlining Government – A Platform for Change
I. The Case for Restructuring
Like all states, Louisiana is challenged to meet significant budget crises given the economic conditions. The
2010-11 budget reflects aggressive cuts to address the loss of $1.3 billion in the tax base. The hardship of
the current economy is evident in decreased tax revenues and reflecting the negative financial situations
faced by citizens and businesses .
Engaging a partner with experience restructuring organizations comparable in complexity and scale provides
the State with executive guidance and operational leadership. A&M believes the scope of the restructuring
includes:
 Provide restructuring leadership at a critical juncture where Louisiana faces internal and external
challenges and financial and operational issues
 Rapidly build a robust fact base to include:
 Near-term opportunities to improve its operational and financial state
 Financial analysis that describes the alignment between statutory requirements, costs and revenues
 Near-term operational and financial prospects
 Formulate a comprehensive program of Restructuring Initiatives that includes:
 Assessment of costs associated with delivering statutory requirements (evaluating operating, fixed,
personnel and capital costs)
 Assessment of scope and size of government
 Detailed plans to optimize customer service to citizens improving efficiency and effectiveness
 Timing, resources and anticipated impact of plan
 Overlay the identified Restructuring Initiatives into State strategic plans and legislative authority
to create a revised strategy

New Orleans Public Schools
II. State of Louisiana Case Studies
Background
 In June 2005, the Public Sector group of A&M was engaged to restructure the financial and
administrative operations of the 117 schools in the New Orleans Public Schools system. After
Hurricane Katrina, imperatives changed, from making sure that teachers, administrators and
staff were paid, to preparing and submitting insurance claims on a timely basis, and, most
importantly, addressing the future educational needs of New Orleans children in the wake of
unimaginable destruction of school property and buildings.
A&M Role
 A&M served many interim management positions including CRO, COO and CFO
Public Sector
New Orleans Public
Schools
Outcomes
 Pre-Katrina, A&M set up a system to verify employment of every NOPS employee and
coordinated the staffing of schools. They made sure books and other supplies were in
classrooms. They coordinated 179 bus routes across the city, worked with maintenance
vendors to ensure repairs were made and schools were clean
 Following Katrina, A&M went from financial managers to crisis managers.
 A&M Real Estate Advisory Services and A&M Dispute Analysis & Forensic Services led the
way in working with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to assess the
damage, school-by-school and get buildings into condition to be opened and occupied.
 Through the firm’s oversight, the district was able to avoid defaulting on $279 million in bond
debt, allowing time to receive financial assistance from the federal government.
 Alvarez & Marsal’s IT staff set up a new IT system for all of NOPS

Background
 Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. filed under Chapter 11 on September 15, 2008. Alvarez & Marsal was
hired at 10:30 p.m. on September 14, 2008, just hours before Lehman Brothers filed for the largest
bankruptcy in U.S. history, and began work that same week.
 At bankruptcy, Lehman Brothers listed $613 billion in debts and $639 in assets.
 Bryan Marsal, A&M’s Co-CEO, was designated as the Chief Restructuring Officer. On December 31,
2008, he assumed the role of CEO, supported by a large A&M staff (with nearly 200 FTEs), including
senior professionals from the various divisions across the firm.

Address immediate fire sales impacting asset values and claims.
Identify and retain teams to work the problem.
Determine pre-bankruptcy events giving rise to causes of action or mitigation of claims.
Outcomes-Ongoing
 Since A&M was assigned to the case in September 2008, an orderly wind-down has been in effect.
 The Lehman Estate has also provided job security for about 560 financial professionals (approximately
200 FTEs from A&M, 130 retained from Lehman and 230 recruited primarily from former Lehman and
other marquee name firms).

Representative Client Case Studies
Background
 Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Centers, a distressed health system in New York City, filed for
bankruptcy in July 2005.
 SVCMC, a $1.5 billion not-for-profit hospital system, consisted of five acute care facilities, a
home health agency, a comprehensive behavioral health business and several nursing homes.
 With losses of nearly $10 million per month, the hospital system had major underfunded pension
obligations of more than $75 million, an estimated $190 million in trade liabilities, and between
$80 million and $115 million in trailing medical malpractice liabilities.
Turnaround and
Restructuring
Saint Vincent Catholic
Medical Centers
(SVCMC)
 Management was dysfunctional; there was distrust among and poor communication with all
constituencies including unions, creditors, banks, state agencies, physicians.
 A&M was hired as restructuring advisors
Outcomes
 Working closely with hospital executives, and union and community leaders, A&M quickly
stabilized cash flow, increased liquidity, maintained operations, implemented quality controls,
overhauled management and governance structures, outsourced information technology
functions and third-party revenue cycle collection contracts, and stabilized union relationships.
 A&M professionals spearheaded the closure and sale of four money-losing facilities in Brooklyn,
Queens and Staten Island, generating new liquidity and reducing middle management costs.
 Within just 20 months after entering Chapter 11, and only 14 months after hiring A&M, SVCMC
filed a consensual plan of reorganization, improved annual cash flow by more than $100 million
dollars, achieved positive monthly cash flow of approximately $3 million and was on track to
achieve EBITDA of more than $60 million.
 SVCMC emerged from bankruptcy in September 2007, as a smaller, leaner organization with a
revitalized balance sheet and a long-term vision focused around a new state-of-the-art hospital.

Background
 A&M led the re-designing of a budget that exceeded $14 billion in support of a system that
serves approximately 1.2 million children in 2005.
 A&M was engaged by the New York City Public Schools, the largest public school district in the
country, to restructure and redesign a centrally mandated, top-down, supply-driven organization
to a bottoms-up, demand driven school-based organization
 A&M personnel served in the following roles: Chancellor’s Chief Advisor on Restructuring, Chief
Restructuring Officer (“CRO”) for Finance, CRO for the Office of School Support Services, CRO
of Office of Pupil Transportation, Special Education CRO for Empowerment Schools .

Outcomes
By August of 2006, approximately 25% of the system’s 1,400+ schools had been moved into a
leaner, more customer-focused empowerment structure, over $89M in costs savings had been
realized and devolved directly to schools and their support structure. Other results included:
 A fully functioning, on-line internal market for services where the bureaucracy would offer for sale
services to schools to purchase including professional development, coaching, etc.
 A redesigned special education support structure complete with new roles, responsibilities,
process maps, training and monitoring capabilities of key metrics for this population of children
representing approximately 18% of the total student population and in excess of $3B+ in spend
 A redesigned Office of Youth Development complete with a call center, crisis response teams
and content experts to serve “at-risk” kids struggling with issues of attendance, substance abuse,
drop-outs and under-credited and overage characteristics
 Innovative, data driven restructuring initiatives in non-academic operations designed to save up
to $100M by more efficient & effective management in the areas of Transportation, Facilities
(including custodial, energy conservation, repairs & maintenance) and Food Services.
