Connecting Dots
What is a Deep Dive Due Diligence?
-
It is a detailed health-check of a Startup or Scale-up in a certain moment in time. It is designed to catch major risk and identify short and long term improvements.
-
Can be used as a study for problem solving and benchmarking to tackle challenging situations like a re-organisation, the need to scale the team effectively, reduction in time-to-market and more.
-
It comes with a concrete set of recommendations, including advice and a plan on how to put them in practice.
When to do it?
-
Best performed before an investment or an M&A to de-risk a decision.
-
When facing a challenging problem the Deep Dive Due Diligence can be used as a study. For example finding the right model to scale the team, optimise delivery process (time-to-market reduction), improve team collaboration and reduce frictions, fix a slow process or update a tech stack - these are issues for which we can use the Deep Dive Due Diligence as a problem solving exercise.
-
As a preparation for when the organisation evolves to a new phase and needs a re-organisation.
-
Before an M&A to catch risks and find the best way to merge the teams.
How do we do it?
Our method is based on 3 distinct phases: Investigation, Diagnostic and Prescription & Plan. It's just like going to the doctor but without (too much of) the pain.
Step 1 - Investigation
-
We interview key people in your organisation
-
Evaluation of multiple perspectives: product strategy, technical stack, efficiency of processes and team and culture.
-
Following-up leads that appear during the interviews
Step 2 - Diagnostic
-
We make chart of your pains and problems that we uncover during the Investigation phase.
-
We identify the root causes and
-
Uncover risks and opportunities
Step 3 - Prescription & Plan
-
We prescribe a set of recommendations
-
Actionable advice and formulaic solutions to your problems where appropriate
-
An implementation roadmap and a plan so you can clearly understand what it takes to implement our recommendations.
