M&A Technical Due Diligence  /  Post-Merger Integration  /  Legacy-to-SaaS Migration
We evaluate the deal, then run the integration. Most firms hand you off between the two. We've sat in both rooms — as the founder who sold a company, and the architect who has spent two decades building and migrating the systems that come after.

02 // Why this firm
~20
Years architecting one company's technology from the ground up
1
Company founded and sold — firsthand sell-side M&A experience
10+
SaaS & API integrations shipped — HubSpot, Canvas, Airtable, payment gateways
Daily
Still writing production code — .NET, REST APIs, SQL Server

Technical due diligence and post-merger integration are usually done by two different kinds of people — consultants who evaluate systems they've never operated, and operators who've never sat on the deal side. We've done both. That combination is why our assessments hold up once the deal actually closes.

The technical depth behind that judgment: full SDLC ownership of enterprise integration platforms, including RESTful API and OAuth 2.0 architecture, SQL Server-backed data pipelines, and PCI-compliant payment integrations (Authorize.net, CardPointe, PayPal). Direct experience connecting SaaS systems — HubSpot, Canvas LMS, Airtable, Google Workspace — into unified, audit-ready reporting and operations.

05 // Partner network

Larger engagements draw on a trusted network of independent consultants and firms across multiple countries — specialists we bring in as needed, so client engagements scale without sacrificing the direct, senior-level attention smaller firms are chosen for in the first place.

Every engagement is led directly by our core team. The network extends capacity and specialist coverage — it does not replace the relationship.

06 // Who we work with

Private equity firms and mid-market companies navigating an acquisition, a divestiture, or a legacy system that's become the thing standing between them and their next stage of growth.
