Our Value Acceleration Framework Concept

Aquire

Supporting Private Equity investors in assessing the technology value of the acquired entity with technology due diligence.

Plan

Designing roadmaps for PE-backed companies to grow – and embrace everything digital transformation has to offer.

Accelerate & Grow

Helping the PE-backed entity reach the heights of its potential – by growing in an optimal pace.

Exit

Making sure that the technology stack of the PE-backed company is as good as possible – to maximize it’s worth.

Aquire

Technology due diligence aims to assess the state of a company’s IT. Some view it as a subcategory of due diligence, performed before a merger, an acquisition, or an investment in any organization. Others see it as a completely different, independent process.
 
But regardless of the linguistic nuances, IT due diligence always seeks to uncover several indicators – like performance, liabilities, key risks and opportunities, and potential investment associated with the company’s digital products and IT stack.
 
The goal is to ensure better valuation, mitigate risks, and understand if the target’s IT is sufficient to support the business in achieving its objectives related to the M&A.

Plan

Even the best efforts may fall short without a good plan.
 
After acquiring a perspective enterprise, the next should be to outline its development, maximizing value, proficiency, and potential.
 
With a professional plan, the PE-backed organization will be able to start its journey to the next level.

Accelerate & Grow

After developing a well thought-through plan, it’s important to implement it proficiently as well.
 
By following the right development path, the PE-backed entity may grow in a steady pace – becoming as efficient and valuable as possible. This includes accelerating SaaS product and empowering it with modern technology – like the Cloud (and more).
 
Importantly, we’re not only supporting the organization in its development – but ensuring team members grow as well.

Exit

When the Private Equity investor is ready to sell, it’s important to ensure that the IT side of the PE-backed entity is in its optimal shape.
 
Much can be achieved with simple quick wins that are able to deliver significant improvements with limited effort. In short: fine-tuning.
 
Alternatively, we can also support PE-backed companies with further refurbishments and innovations – all to make sure that the return on investment is as attractive and satisfying as only can be.
