Evaluating Acquisitions
Speed wins deals. Diligence protects them. Rarely both.
The trade-off
Build vs. Acquire.
What Goes Wrong If This Is Handled Badly
- Moving fast enough to win the deal but not fast enough to protect it
- Underestimating integration cost relative to the purchase price
- Inheriting operational or compliance issues invisible pre-close
How we see it
Most acquisitions fail at integration, not signing. We weight both equally.
How We Work Through It
- Define strategic rationale before sourcing targets
- Run diligence built for speed, not shortcuts
- Plan integration before close
