Make an informed technology investment.
The IT Due Diligence Guide is written by an experienced technology and operations executive. The author has evaluated numerous technology companies on behalf of private equity firms, venture capital organizations and private investors.
The book goes beyond the simple checklists and cursory reviews of IT assets that are common in too many transactions. The IT Due Diligence Guide includes:
- An overview of the IT due diligence process
- Straightforward language in recognition of the fact that the due diligence team doesn’t always include a technology expert
- A comprehensive checklist with detailed explanations and interpretations of potential responses, including real-world examples
- Chapters dedicated to IT staff, products, software development process, networks and infrastructure, intellectual property, customers, cybersecurity, compliance, financial issues and more
- Guidance on how and when to ask the most sensitive questions
- An IT due diligence report template that allows you to quickly summarize your findings in a format that will be useful to the deal’s executive team
- An IT integration plan template to help you think through how what you discovered during IT due diligence will impact the integration of the newly acquired company
Due to the special considerations related to IT due diligence in healthcare organizations, the book comes with an exclusive healthcare technology due diligence checklist. There is also an entire section of the book that focuses on healthcare. Much of this content is relevant to any company that operates in a heavily-regulated industry or manages highly-sensitive data.
