Our Support

We support you throughout the transaction’s lifecycle, whether sell-side or buy-side, from carve-out preparation through to operational due diligence and post-merger Integration.

Carve-out preparation

We asses the separation’s operational, organisational and financial impacts, applying our hands-on, practical approach to secure the carved-out perimeter’s autonomy, while minimising financial consequences.

Operational vendor due diligence

We maximise the deal value by ensuring the consistency of the business plan with the company’s operational maturity, assessing existing and potential new levers, and translating them into financial impacts.

Buy-side operational due diligence

With a thorough understanding of the target’s sector and maturity of its parts, we help you assess potential operational risks, upsides and synergies, to provide you with a clear vision of the target’s potential.

Buy-side carve-out due diligence

We leverage our carve-out expertise to assess sources of complexity and potential separation issues, update the target’s value, and help secure the transition to autonomy, through transition service agreements.

Post-merger integration

We help you structure and execute your integration, pacing its implementation, challenging synergies, helping draft each function’s roadmap, and deep diving on the most critical topics, such as key workstreams and change management.
