Private equity advisory
Technology & commercial due diligence
Independent technology and commercial diligence for private equity — buy-side, sell-side, and value creation. Evidence-led findings for investment committees and negotiation.
Clarity when it counts. ECKHART PARTNERS
Capabilities
Technology and commercial, together
Where many advisers lead with tech alone, we treat commercial and technology diligence as complementary — not as separate workstreams. The same deal discipline applies across both.
Commercial due diligence
Market, customers, and competition; revenue quality and retention; GTM and channel dynamics; and the commercial assumptions behind the plan — with the same rigour as the numbers.
Buy-side and sell-side
Buy-side under exclusivity; sell-side vendor support; carve-outs, integrations, and separation themes — aligned to your process, data room, and timetable.
Value creation
Post-close prioritisation, roadmaps, and governance between investors and management — turning diligence into initiatives with owners, milestones, and metrics.
Findings that hold up in the room — whether the debate is architecture, market, or both.
Investment lifecycle
From diligence to exit
We support sponsors and management across the private equity investment journey — analogous to how leading advisers structure M&A lifecycle coverage, adapted to our dual tech-and-commercial model.
01
Invest
Technology and commercial diligence to inform conviction, pricing, and structure.
02
Focus
Materiality-led findings on product, market, security, and execution — tied to the thesis.
03
Create
Post-close value creation: roadmaps, integration, and measurable initiatives.
04
Realise
Sell-side readiness, vendor diligence, and a coherent narrative for exit.
Why Eckhart Partners
Diligence you can use in the room
Clear findings, explicit assumptions, and recommendations that hold up in negotiation — whether the debate is architecture, market, or both.
Our work is built for investment committees: limited scope creep, fast feedback loops, and outputs that separate material risks from noise. Technology and commercial threads are joined where they intersect — for example, when roadmap ambition meets market traction, or when security posture meets regulatory exposure.
