Identify problem areas in your technology posture before they are identified during buy‑side diligence
It is critical for companies to improve their overall technology posture before entering an investment/acquisition transaction. Sell-side diligence helps targets of M&A avoid delays throughout the entire transaction and enables them to demand more favorable pricing. It also helps them avoid costly findings during buy-side diligence by knowing their vulnerabilities and weaknesses before they are discovered late in the process. We have seen many deals fall through due to troubling findings that could have been easily addressed ahead of the buy-side diligence.
We help unearth and address issues that can potentially derail the entire transaction before that happens.
