Founder

Dennis Strawsacker

Dennis Strawsacker founded JTA3 Solutions LLC to bring a practical, operator's mindset to business acquisitions. Before starting JTA3, Dennis built a career in highway and heavy-civil construction, working as an operating engineer and construction superintendent on demanding infrastructure and utility projects. That experience means long days on active job sites, coordinating crews and subcontractors, managing safety on live roadways, and being accountable for schedules and budgets that don't leave room for guesswork.

Alongside his construction background, Dennis holds a real estate license in New York and has direct experience in property investment, project coordination, and operations — the same fundamentals that make an excavation company, an HVAC business, or a specialty contractor run well.

"I've spent my career on the operational side of businesses like the ones we look at — I understand what it takes to keep a service business running well, and why the people who built it deserve a thoughtful transition."

That operational grounding is what shapes how JTA3 Solutions LLC approaches every conversation with an owner. Dennis isn't evaluating a business from a spreadsheet alone — he's asking the same questions a superintendent would ask about a project: Is the work being done safely and well? Are the right people in the right roles? Is there a plan for what happens next? Those questions matter just as much as the financials when it comes to deciding whether a business is a good fit, and how to structure a transition that actually works once the deal is signed.

Why This Work Matters

Service businesses — excavation, utilities, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, septic, landscaping, waste services, specialty construction, and small manufacturing — are the backbone of the communities they serve. Many were built over decades by an owner who is now approaching retirement without a clear successor. JTA3 Solutions LLC exists to give those owners a serious option: a buyer who understands the business, respects what's been built, and is committed to its continued success — for the owner, the employees, and the customers who rely on it.
