For most mainstream businesses the linkages between operations and IT are crucial to the efficiency and effectiveness of their overall operating model.

Our assessment of operations and IT covers the core aspects of the target’s operating model, including:
• Strategic alignment to the management or the investors’ business plan
• Effectiveness and efficiency
• Potential for optimisation and further value creation
• Cost base reduction, including the cost and timescale of any changes required
• Identification of key material risks and issues 

 

Our due diligence approach is tailored to each investment scenario. We take a holistic view across the operating model and underlying IT systems, and use this to provide a post-completion action plan for the first 100 days and beyond.

Our depth of experience and joined up approach enables us to uncover issues that would otherwise have remained hidden and to advise the investor on how to extract more value from the deal..

We provide ongoing support to our clients throughout the transaction and post-completion, through our IT Strategy and Implementation services.
