INTEGRATED OPERATIONAL AND COMMERCIAL DUE DILIGENCE

We believe that the ODD and CDD are two sides of the same coin. Emerald is an expert in performing separate ODD & CDD projects; however, we also take great pride in our ability to provide a holistic due diligence assessment, combining the scope of operational and commercial due diligence.

We have a complete understanding of the growth strategy, market offering, operations fitness, and competitive dynamics across the industries we serve for all industrial deals. We can then cross-reference it against the operational aspects, such as operational benchmarking, gap analysis, manufacturing footprint analysis, among many others, to maximize your investment potential in M&A deals in power, oil & gas water, specialized industrials, aerospace, and energy storage.
