WHAT WE DO
SERVICES WE OFFER
As part of any transaction advisory mandate, DCS advisors provide their public and private sector, lender, multilateral and regulatory clients with expert due diligence coordination services. As the party tasked with coordinating all legal, technical and commercial due diligence workstreams, we will manage all workstreams from various client team and third-party consultant workstreams to ensure that all due diligence work products comes together in an optimal manner and within the transaction time frame. In a typical transaction undertaking (whether PPP/P3, M&A/privatization, project finance, etc.) there are also numerous workstreams and scheduling items that depend on the due diligence process. For example, as a transaction advisor, we also may be assisting our client with the establishment and management of a virtual data room, providing financing modeling services, drafting and negotiating contracts and many other interrelated transaction advisory roles.
DCS advisors are able to provide due diligence coordination services on a stand-alone basis on behalf of clients who are pursuing a PPP/P3, project financing or M&A/privatization or project finance transactions. In most cases, as due diligence coordination services will be only one element of a larger project delivery program, DCS will also be providing numerous other complementary transaction advisory services in relation to other transaction elements. Our preference is always to provide such comprehensive transaction advisory services and coordinate all elements of the transaction, including project financing on behalf of our clients.
Under any due diligence coordination services mandate, DCS will draw from our global network of veteran industry expert advisor affiliates and our relationship consultants in order to assemble the most appropriate team to match the specific needs of the transaction at hand. This will always include leadership of DCS affiliate experts who possess decades of global public and private sector experience related to the specific sector and transaction type. In any due diligence coordination services mandate, our preferred role is always to serve as the lead project/program manager. Within this role we are also able to assist in the selection and procurement (or subcontracting) and management of other advisors and consultants, including local and international legal, tax, commercial advisors or other specialized advisors, as the specific transaction may require. To the extent that other third-party advisors are required, there are many value added advantages of allowing DCS to assist in the procurement of these advisors. First, DCS expert affiliates themselves possess many of the legal, technical and commercial skill sets and we are best positioned to determine which additional outside third-party skill sets are required and which firms or individuals should be hired in these roles. Secondly, due diligence coordination is often very complex undertaking, requiring the management and coordination of many simultaneous workstreams. DCS advisors are experts in project and program management services and are ideally suited to manage and coordinate a multi-dimensional advisory team most efficiently and effectively.
