Spend Matters Diligence

We’ve run diligence for hundreds of companies in the procurement, finance and supply chain universe over the past 25 years. In this complicated and rapidly-changing technology and investment environment, our clients benefit from removing doubt and uncertainty from decision making. 

Overview

As experts in niche domains, we do not deviate from what we know, and use a data-driven approach that enables a fractal understanding of the overall market, acquisition target and competition. But we’ve always been puzzled by diligence emphasis being only on financials and forecasts — not product or market fit. 

It’s taken us decades of honing our diligence approach to put what really matters first in every engagement: truly useful data and expert insight.
