Buy-Side Tech Diligence
Expert, thorough, and practical Technical Diligence covering Product, Architecture, Deployment, IT, Process, Team, and Security – Delivered quickly and at a reasonable cost
What is Buy-Side Tech Diligence?
Buy-Side Tech Diligence is a critical aspect of any business transaction involving technology, such as acquisitions, investments, or partnerships. It is an in-depth assessment of the target company’s technology strategy, assets, systems, security, and processes to identify potential risks, weaknesses, and opportunities.
TechCXO Tech Diligence Service Packages
TechCXO provides Tech Diligence services for investors and acquiring companies that want to be sure they have clear visibility into any technology and/or security risks. An acquiring company needs confidence that the technology they are investing in has a robust feature set, is secure and scalable, and will not require significant short-term investment to address critical scaling or security shortcomings. Depending on the technology in question, multiple Tech Diligence components may or may not be needed based on the type of company, specific concerns previously identified in the diligence process, and the size of the deal.
TechCXO offers a flexible “menu” of Tech Diligence components that can be combined to address the specific needs of each deal. This can range anywhere from a quick, high-level assessment of just one or two of these components all the way up to a very detailed assessment of every one of these components.

The findings and recommendations from the product & technology assessments performed become the foundation of a solid technology roadmap.
Smoother Post-close Integration & Execution
The assessment results coupled with fractional technology leadership allow for a seamless transition from assessment to remediation.
