M&A Advisory & Value Enhancement
We help technology founders and investors prepare their companies for high-valuation exits . By improving
your technology posture, documenting and packaging your intellectual property, and optimizing your
operations, Trushift Digital ensures that you enter M&A discussions in the best possible shape. We run
comprehensive readiness assessments and execute targeted improvements so that when the time comes to
engage with acquirers or investors, you can demonstrate maximum value with minimum friction.
What We Deliver
- Exit Readiness Analysis: A 360-degree pre-sale assessment covering your technology stack, product architecture, code quality, infrastructure, DevOps, security, and even operational and financial tech considerations. We identify any red flags or improvement opportunities that could affect your company’s valuation or deal process.
- Intellectual Property (IP) Packaging: Thorough documentation and cleanup of your core assets – source code repositories, AI/ML models, data assets, architecture diagrams, and product roadmaps. We create professional, clear documentation that an acquirer’s technical team can easily understand, showcasing the robustness and uniqueness of your IP.
- Technology Due Diligence Prep: We help you build a complete, buyer-ready data room and technical documentation package. This may include architectural summaries, scalability testing results, security audits, regulatory compliance documentation, and more. When potential buyers start their due diligence, they’ll find everything organized and vetted, which speeds up the process and instills confidence.
- Value Engineering for Private Equity: Advisory for companies specifically targeting Private Equity buyers. We focus on the technical factors that drive higher valuation multiples – for example, ensuring your platforms are scalable for growth, eliminating costly technical debt, and highlighting recurring revenue enablement through technology. This engineering of value can significantly improve the price multiple PE firms are willing to pay.
- Agentic AI Readiness Dashboards: Development of automated KPI dashboards and AI-driven analytics that package your business’s performance in the best light. These dashboards, powered by our agentic AI tools, can continuously gather and present key metrics (user growth, system performance, customer acquisition cost, etc.) in real-time. They not only impress potential buyers but also help you manage the business more effectively in the lead-up to an exit.
Key Benefits for Our Clients
- Maximize your valuation multiple on exit by presenting a clean, robust, and scalable technology environment that commands buyer confidence (and premium pricing).
- Reduce due diligence risks and friction – by preemptively addressing issues and having documentation ready, you prevent last-minute surprises that could delay or derail a deal.
- Present professionally packaged technology IP, giving buyers clarity and assurance about what they are acquiring (which can lead to better offers and terms).
- Attract both strategic and financial buyers by showcasing not only current performance but also future potential (e.g., technology that can be leveraged into new markets or products).
- Accelerate deal timelines – a company that is ready for acquisition can move through negotiations and closing much faster, which reduces the window for market changes or deal fatigue.
Who Should Use This Service
- SaaS or Tech Founders planning to seek a strategic acquisition by a larger tech company and wanting to put their best foot forward technically.
- Private Equity firms preparing a portfolio company for sale in the next 12–24 months – we’ll work with your team to polish the tech assets and document the value for potential buyers.
- VC-backed companies gearing up for an exit or big fundraising round and needing to demonstrate maturity in their technology and operations. Starting early (a year or two out) on readiness can significantly increase your attractiveness to acquirers.
- Any tech company aiming to package and highlight their assets for sale – whether you have proprietary data, unique algorithms, or a powerful platform, we ensure the narrative and evidence of value are clearly presented.
