Mergers and Acquisitions – Operational Due Diligence
When we join two or more businesses, there is always risk. Once the financials and the business planning have been analysed, and the ‘features of fit’ discussed, we are left with the risk that is least understood and hardest to check in depth – operational capability.
We augment your M&A effort by providing a comprehensive DD service, examining operational capabilities and capacities, identifying areas of concern, interrogating the CAPEX portfolio and levels of performance.
We provide a detailed operational diagnostic that encompasses the entire supply chain, from supplier base to end customer and all points between.
So that you don’t have to.
On joining the business it became clear that a new long term strategy was required to steer the business through a turbulent political and economic environment.
We worked with Davie on developing a strategy that both pointed the business on a route that navigated those challenges but also addressed the wider initiatives of our owning group.
We recognised the need for solid building blocks in areas to improve but with a vision flexible enough to take us through a changing environment.
I’m really pleased to say that our business plan is now routed firmly in c2c and supported by our stakeholders as a step change in the operation of the business.
Davies manner is warm and personable, using his vast corporate experience to draw parallels and help focus the planning sessions.
