Data and AI Readiness Assessment for PE Due Diligence
What it will take to run this as one business, on data AI can use
We estimate how far a company's data is from what the thesis needs, and what closing the gap will cost and take.
We have run this assessment for a PE-backed accounting firm, which then hired us to build what we recommended (see Data and AI Strategy), and consolidated data across about 100 facilities at a tech-enabled services company.
What the readiness assessment answers
This is not an audit of the analytics team. It's an estimate of the distance between where the data stands and what the business is meant to become.
In a buy-and-build, each add-on is a smaller version of the same question.
The method can also be packaged as an agent or skill, so every add-on gets the same checks and scoring.
Including the AI-ROI assessment
Our AI-ROI assessment, run with our engineering partner Mangoteque, tells the deal team whether the AI story in the thesis is credible.
Know what one business will cost before you sign
Most of the assessment runs on system inventories, sample extracts and a handful of conversations with the people who own the data.
