IT Due Diligence

ramsac's IT Due Diligence Service has been developed in partnership with some of the UK's leading Corporate Finance Specialists, and our due Diligence specialist consultants have worked on corporate projects ranging from small company mergers, to multi million pound acquisitions.

Due diligence must take place whenever a company changes hands or goes through the process of acquisition and so obviously IT is a major consideration within this process. ramsac addresses all the key IT questions that will arise during due diligence, including: What systems and staff are in place? Does the system need updating or replacing? Are these systems compatible with the acquiring companies existing infrastructure? If not, what will it take to join them efficiently? What are the on ongoing costs, such as contractual obligations to third parties? Are they fully licensed? If over licensed, what is the cost saving and if under licensed, to what extent?

It is vital to assess how quickly, efficiently and cost effectively two businesses can merge.  ramsac uses its wealth of IT audit expertise to deliver a comprehensive and confidential report providing detailed information on all of these major factors to enable a decision to be made.

The service provided by ramsac looks at the potential liabilities and cost commitments that could impact on the deal. and establishes a plan for the successful integration of the two businesses after the deal is completed, enabling the purchasing party to clearly understand the long term impact of merging IT infrastructures, both financially and operationally.

We are happy to discuss partnering with Accountants and Corporate Finance Specialists who may wish to add IT Due Diligence to their own portfolio. See our Partner Scheme details for information on partnering with ramsac or contact us to discuss in greater detail.
