Execute the deal successfully Deloitte supports separation execution throughout the sell-side process by ensuring consistent messaging through a virtual data room, bidder due diligence Q&A, and sell-side banker collaboration. Deloitte helps clients develop financial information, audit-ready financial statements, tax structuring alternatives, TSA/MSA sheets, and other tax, financial, or operational separation materials required for effective deal execution. Deloitte prepares functional separation of systems, processes, people, and assets through workplans and Day 1 readiness requirements, advises readiness for cutover at closing, and executes Day 1 command centers. Deloitte’s Total M&A Solution includes several key tools that streamline separation planning and execution activities. Among the integrated set of innovative technologies focused on executing the deal are Deloitte’s Financial Statement Carve-out Accelerator, which fast-tracks the development and audit of carve-out financial statements. D-ICE, an AI solution that analyzes unstructured contract data to significantly accelerate the contract review process; and M&A Central, a SaaS application that provides critical program management capabilities across the separation lifecycle. This set of technologies, amongst others in the Total M&A Solution suite offer M&A solutions that can be tailored to each client’s transaction journey—and help map the path ahead. |
