Aqualis Advisors vs. Financial IT-Due Diligence Tag-On Services


Our financial due diligence provider usually does our IT-ODD. Why engage another firm to focus just on Information technology?

Our strategically-focused IT-ODD advisory services complement the internal control reviews conducted by your financial due diligence provider, usually an audit firm. With Sarbanes-Oxley and the renewed focus on internal controls, this specialization remains a core-competency of an audit firm.  If the need is for a controls review or the validation of the veracity of the financial statements, then the desired IT Due Diligence is probably best performed by the financial due diligence provider.  But if not…

Aqualis Advisors is uniquely qualified to provide our business and technology experience to the IT-ODD aspects of the transaction.  Leveraging more than 300+ completed Middle-Market Private Equity sponsored transaction engagements – We focus on the role of Information Technology as being either an asset or liability to Target’s current and future business operations – especially as the Target’s IT capabilities may enable desired EBITDA growth during the holding period as a portfolio company.

Our leadership, which arranges and conducts all of our IT-ODD engagements, provides 35+ years of senior partner-level experience with information technology complexities associated with:

    • Successful IT deployment strategies and failures.
    • Practical, realizable transition services agreement timetables and conditions
    • Business operations integrations successes and failures.

Our leadership, which arranges and conducts all of our IT-ODD engagements, has seen it all during the last 35+ years of the corporate information technology evolution.

There is no substitute for experience – especially if an Exit Strategy is at risk.
