ITDueDiligenceChecklist 2018 OT A4
ITDueDiligenceChecklist 2018 OT A4
This list is intended to be comprehensive. It’s unlikely that you’d want to ask every question on this list in every due diligence effort. You should edit it as
appropriate for your situation.
There is an Item ID column to number each request, if desired. This often makes it easier to track the responses from the target company. I’d suggest
that you request that the target company include the Item ID in the file name of any response.
If you’re using a data room for the due diligence project, the target company can identify the location of any uploaded information in the Data Room
Location column.
While there is a Comments column for short answers, any response of more than a few sentences is better provided in a separate file.
IT Due Diligence Guide
If you've downloaded this checklist because you're involved in M&A due diligence, read on...
Regardless of whether this is your first time being included in the process or you're an M&A veteran, the IT Due Diligence Guide can help to ensure that
you're doing everything possible to identify the risks and opportunities in your transaction.
The book provides a complete explanation of each question on the checklist – why it should be asked and what the potential answers can tell you about your
acquisition target. Even more importantly, it explains the right follow-up questions to ask to get the detailed information you need. It also includes questions
not on the checklist that should be asked only in person – these can be vital.
The book comes with a detailed IT due diligence report template to help you create a report in a format that will be useful and understandable to executives
running the deal, data collection spreadsheets to help the process go as quickly and smoothly as possible and an IT implementation plan template to get you
started on the post-due diligence phase of the deal.
