Due Diligence

Do you have the right information?

So you want to buy a business, merge or create a strategic partnership?  Before the deal is signed, significant effort should be spent determining that what is advertised, is real.  The old adage, “Looking for skeletons in the closet”, is not far from the intent of what we call Due Diligence.

All too often, Due Diligence is relegated to a financial investigation to ensure margins, assets and liabilities are accounted for.  In fewer cases, Lean or Six Sigma experts are enlisted to assess opportunities for improved operational performance.   Rarely is adequate verification performed on the competitive landscape, market value of intellectual property (IP), viability of technology road map, robustness of product development processes, retention of key technical personnel and status of customer relationships.

Past financial performance does not guarantee future competitiveness!  RMI is a critical member of your Due Diligence team to provide insight on competition, markets, customers, IP, technical resources, and development processes.    Call today to schedule a free and confidential project review.
