Staffing due diligence to meet tight deadlines is challenging. Finding enough lawyers is difficult. They need review guidelines, training, facilities and the right software. Speed is of the essence. Long work days are customary and even the most dedicated lawyers may overlook important risks when overloaded.
Integreon quickly assembles a team of trained and experienced onshore or offshore lawyers. Our local project managers and lawyers work with the law department or outside firms to develop review guidelines. We then train a team which works in a secure, dedicated facility. Our rigorous process and quality controls include statistical sampling and regular reports on productivity and quality.
Integreon’s outsourced due diligence capabilities offer law firms and corporations several benefits:
- Speed: We can operate two or three shifts per day in one location in several across time zones.
- Better Ability to Evaluate the Likely Risks: Review guidelines typically cast a wide net designed to find all potentially relevant documents. We free-up inside and outside counsel to focus on evaluating just the potentially significant issues.
- Confidentiality and Continuous Operations: Due diligence work in corporate deal making is highly sensitive. Our delivery centers are housed in world-class facilities with state-of-the-art security. In fact, security is tighter than in most law firms and domestic review centers. We use a combination of physical and virtual measures to protect your data and have earned ISO 27001 security certification. Numerous back-up systems ensure continuous operations.
- Lower Cost and the Potential to Evaluate More Deals: Electing the offshore option can save 50% of the cost of an onshore due diligence. Beyond savings, with lower cost due diligence and rapid turn-around, corporations and law firms are able to evaluate more transactions because of increased bandwidth.
