Due diligence readiness
Group 18 runs a red-team exercise that simulates how an acquirer's diligence team will read the organization. Over two to three weeks it identifies the findings that would move valuation, and returns a prioritized remediation plan with owners and sequence.

How it works
Three stages, one owner on the client side from day one.
- 01
Simulate the buyer
A team that has sat on the acquiring side reviews the business the way a diligence team will, without the courtesy.
- 02
Rank the findings
Each finding is scored on what it does to valuation and how long it takes to fix, so leadership works the right list.
- 03
Remediate and rehearse
Group 18 stays on to close the priority findings and prepare leadership for the questions that will be asked.
Typical outcomes (illustrative figures for this concept)

- from kickoff to ranked findings
