Twenty plus years of providing due diligence services has taught us one thing – IT is often the least-understood area of the business, particularly among financial organizations and strategic sponsors. At AlixPartners, we’ve honed our ability to quickly and effectively understand target companies IT capabilities, and highlight those risks and concerns in a way that the entire organization can understand.
Our veteran IT professionals perform a deep-dive review of the IT organization of an acquisition target so you understand the issues, risks, opportunities and the value of the IT assets you are acquiring. This review helps to identify major problems including hidden costs, broken projects, poorly written contracts and major delivery risks that may affect the purchase price. IT due diligence also helps determine the appropriate IT transition costs to build into the analysis.
