Telecom and Technology M&A Due Diligence
Technology diligence should establish whether the asset being purchased can lawfully, securely and reliably deliver what the business plan assumes. That requires connecting contracts and licenses to actual systems, dependencies and operating practices.
Diligence focus
- Licenses, numbering resources and regulatory registrations
- Network architecture, scalability and supplier concentration
- Software ownership and open-source exposure
- Cybersecurity controls and material incidents
- Data protection, residency and cross-border processing
Questions for the investment thesis
- Does the technical platform support the represented product and margins?
- Which critical capabilities depend on third parties?
- Can licenses, numbering and interconnections survive the transaction?
- What remediation, migration or integration costs are not reflected in the model?
