Leveraging expert analysis in preparation for sale

Closing a transaction depends on accurate and comprehensive data of the target company. As a leading software and services investor, Hg well understood that highlighting the value of MEDIFOX DAN, one of its portfolio companies, was key to crowning its five-year effort that was invested to further enhance the company’s market position. Fueled by continuous innovation and a clear customer focus, MEDIFOX DAN became a leading provider of digital solutions for the German care, support, and therapy sectors, making it a much-desired target for acquisition.

In preparation for the transaction, Hg sought assistance with an objective analysis of MEDIFOX DAN’s technology setup. To demonstrate the company’s tech vision and strategy, platform architecture, and many other particularities, Hg opted for a comprehensive technology vendor due diligence.

Highlighting the technology vision and value

BearingPoint Capital customized its approach to ensure that the technology vendor due diligence answered Hg’s needs for an equitable sale of MEDIFOX DAN. Therefore, throughout the project, the team conducted continuous in-depth assessments of crucial components like the technology architecture, IT security, disaster recovery, IT service management, and customer onboarding/offboarding, to name a few.

The BearingPoint team conducted interviews with MEDIFOX DAN’s technology leadership to gain a holistic understanding of the IT vision, organization, and setup. Findings were presented in a report to demonstrate MEDIFOX's continuous technological progress over the past five years. A transition to cloud-based technology and the use of AI tools were highlighted by BearingPoint subject matter experts for the German healthcare industry, together with technology architects.

BearingPoint Capital created a comprehensive report, including a clear view of the strategic technology vision for the next 5 years and its alignment with the overall business strategy.
