Analysis to inform your M&A plans and support confirmation of deal value.
Our operations due diligence helps companies translate business projections into the operations improvements and integration activities necessary to achieve them.
We use fact-based analysis to identify and quantify EBITDA adjustments, liabilities, risk exposures, and opportunities for working capital, human capital (HR), information technology (IT), finance & accounting (F&A), supply chain, and operations. We uncover potential issues, early, to minimize post-transaction surprises that can derail value capture.
