Enterprise Technology Diligence (ETD)
This accelerator equips Private Equity (PE) firms with the tools and frameworks needed to perform rapid and accurate diligence of the Enterprise Technology (ET) stack of potential acquisitions. By utilizing TechTorch’s proven outside-in frameworks and advanced AI-driven analysis, PE firms can identify the health, risks, and readiness of the systems, applications, data, and technology processes of target organizations.
The ETD Accelerator eliminates surprises post-acquisition, providing a comprehensive and actionable diagnostic report before deal closure. If granted access to data or systems via secure data rooms, our AI agents review thousands of contracts, datasets, and key business areas to identify risks, estimate repair costs, and project timeframes for required fixes—allowing PEs to factor these into their valuation and integration plans.
Challenges in Technology Due Diligence for Private Equity
Delayed Value Realization
Post-acquisition surprises in the ET stack delay execution of the PE’s value creation plan.
High Costs
Identifying and fixing tech issues post-acquisition can significantly inflate budgets.
Complex Assessment
Outside-in diligence without access to internal systems or data often misses critical issues.
Misrepresented Technology Health
Acquired organizations often present overly optimistic views of their technology readiness.
Time-Consuming Planning
Designing and implementing a new ET stack delays time-to-value realization.
Benefits of Enterprise Technology Diligence (ETD)
Preemptive Identification of Risks
Gain a clear view of what will break, how to fix it, and associated costs before acquisition.
Accelerated Diligence
Complete assessments quickly with outside-in frameworks and AI-driven diagnostics.
Reduced Surprises
Ensure transparency into the ET stack, avoiding unanticipated issues post-acquisition.
Cost Efficiency
Enable informed deal discussions with realistic budgeting for ET fixes.
Time-to-Value Optimization
Accelerate execution of the value creation plan with proactive ET planning.
AI-powered Insights
Use AI agents to review contracts, data, and critical systems at scale for rapid diagnostics.
