IT due diligence London —
questions answered
Q.What is IT due diligence?
IT due diligence (also called technology due diligence) is a structured assessment of a business's IT infrastructure, security posture, software licences, vendor contracts, and technical risks — typically conducted as part of a merger, acquisition, investment round, or management buyout. It identifies issues that may affect deal value, post-acquisition integration complexity, or ongoing operating costs. Coreitech provides independent IT due diligence reports for London-based transactions.
Q.When should IT due diligence be conducted?
IT due diligence should be conducted before signing a Letter of Intent (LOI) or Heads of Terms in an M&A transaction, during fundraising rounds where investors require technology assessments, before management buyouts to understand the IT estate you are acquiring, and when a business is being prepared for sale to identify and remediate issues before investor scrutiny.
Q.What does a Coreitech IT due diligence report cover?
A Coreitech IT due diligence report covers: infrastructure inventory and technical debt assessment; cyber security posture and vulnerability scan results; software licensing compliance; IT vendor contracts and SLA analysis; GDPR and regulatory compliance gaps; key-person dependencies and IT resilience; cloud architecture and scalability assessment; and a prioritised risk register with remediation cost estimates.
Q.How long does IT due diligence take?
For a London SME (20–200 employees), Coreitech typically delivers an IT due diligence report within 5–10 business days of gaining access to systems and documentation. Larger or more complex businesses may require 15–20 days. We work to transaction timelines and can expedite assessments where deals require rapid completion. Reports are written for both technical and non-technical audiences (board/investor ready).
Q.How much does IT due diligence cost in London?
Coreitech's IT due diligence services are priced based on business size, complexity, and timeline. SME assessments (under 100 users, single site) typically range from £3,000–£8,000 for a comprehensive report. Mid-market transactions with multiple sites or complex infrastructure are quoted individually. Given that IT issues discovered post-close can cost multiples of the due diligence fee to remediate, it is consistently one of the highest-ROI investments in any transaction.
