Performing proper due diligence on an acquisition target can be a time-consuming, difficult, and often an ill-defined process. The ramifications of poor information gathering during the diligence process can be catastrophic, and may include:
- Overpaying for an acquisition
- Delayed or failed integration
- Hidden costs
- Regulatory and compliance issues
