Operational Due Diligence

Understanding and mitigating risks.

Before a merger, the due diligence process often focuses on legal and financial aspects. However, at Rockborn we think there is more to explore.

Holistic approach

At Rockborn, we look at the whole picture. We evaluate the entirety of each merging organisation and see how it operates. Interviews with key stakeholders and staff develop our understanding and help to identify synergies and differences.

Our people-focused approach means that we are interested in getting under the skin of an organisation and seeing how it really ticks. We look at a range of factors in the due diligence process, including:

  • Vision and mission
  • Key business systems
  • Quality and performance management
  • Internal and external communications
  • Cultural indicators
  • Pay and conditions
  • Reward and recognition
  • People strategies including health and wellbeing

The comprehensive report we produce will make recommendations that can tremendously aid the decision-making that follows.
