The licensing and audit exposure inside a deal looks different in every sector. We map it where you do business.
Our software M&A advisory by industry work recognises that the publishers, deployment patterns and audit pressure that drive inherited exposure differ by sector. Below are the industries where we most often map and quantify that exposure for acquirers.
Each guide covers the licensing and audit risk patterns specific to that sector and how we quantify them before you sign.
We work across financial services, insurance, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, technology and SaaS, and private equity portfolios. The common thread is a software estate large enough to carry latent licensing and audit exposure.
Deployment patterns, regulatory load and the mix of publishers differ by sector, which changes where exposure hides and which vendors audit hardest after a deal.
Yes. We hold no affiliation with any software publisher or reseller and are paid only by the acquirer.
