As a consequence, most private equity investors rely on the judgment of ad-hoc teams of industry executives brought in to critique management and develop new operating plans. To meet the needs of these clients investing in industrial assets, Oliver Wyman has developed the “Value Due Diligence” approach.
This capability has proven to be far more than a mere combination of conventional commercial and operational due diligence reports. The extension of scope, the combination of industry and functional expertise, and the focus on the key levers for post-acquisition value creation and risk management, pave the way for better decision making, immediate action and faster results – helping private equity clients to hone their competitive edge in the quest for investment returns.
