Beacon Integration's IT Due Diligence Approach is designed to delivery actionable intelligence that informs executive decision making.

Our seasoned team evaluates all facets of both organizations’ technological aptitude, including operational and financial health compared to industry benchmarks, alignment with the business, and overall effectiveness. Evaluation results include:

• An outline of technology finds and timeline for achieving market opportunities
• Identification of potential synergy points and organic savings opportunities
• Detection of key intellectual assets
• Highlight of key risks and weakness that could lead to a cost or other exposure
• Articulation of divergence from industry benchmark spending and staffing.
• A shortlist of the major IT points that should inform negotiating terms

In the event of a divestiture we also: 

• Highlight IT aspects for Transition Services Agreement (TSA) considerations such as infrastructure and data separation methodology, determining which party pays for what and establishing a timeline for completion

• Analyze shared services spending to determine whether all operational costs are transparent or if certain costs are being carried by a business unit that is not part of the transaction
