Syncplicity

Accelerating due diligence by 50%

By providing TDV with technical and operational support, we streamlined and sped up their acquisition of Syncplicity.

Enterprise-focused file sharing

TDV needed technical assistance with the due diligence process of acquiring Syncplicity – a company which offers businesses a powerful, cloud-based solution for all content collaboration, as well as enterprise file sharing and syncing needs.

Corporate carve-out support

As the entire acquisition process needed to be done quickly, TDV focused on analyzing Syncplicity’s P&L, as well as market and scaling potential, while we deployed our rapid response team which took over the technical aspect of due diligence.

From zero to done in 2 weeks

Through a detailed audit, we analyzed the entire Syncplicity platform – from the tech stack, to functionalities, to code quality and the processes which led them to their current point. This gave us and TDV a clear understanding of Syncplicity’s strengths and weaknesses, as well as what needs to be changed after the acquisition.

After the product audit, we shifted our focus on analyzing the tech team. We conducted 50 interviews over 3 days in order to assess the team’s current state – their level of expertise, engagement and efficiency. This helped us decide on what the ideal team structure should be going forward – all while keeping in mind TDV’s business plans for scaling Syncplicity.

The output of our process resulted in a due diligence blueprint which gave TDV a detailed overview of Syncplicity’s tech assets – from core team’s expertise and ideal setup, to product’s current state, as well as a long-term roadmap.

Our focused approach combined with our rapid response team’s business and tech expertise enabled TDV to finalize the acquisition process of Syncplicity in half of the planned time.
