Private Equity

One due diligence engagement. $4M in EBITDA. $40M in enterprise value.

The PE Reality

Technology is the place where deal value either gets lost, or gets found.

Synoptek operates as your MxP (Managed Experience Provider), embedding execution, governance, and intelligence across every stage of the deal lifecycle, so that technology works to accelerate your investment thesis rather than undermine it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Synoptek benchmarks the target against 500+ comparable companies across eight technology dimensions, then translates gaps into projected EBITDA impact and a prioritized investment sequence, giving your deal team a financial model instead of a technical checklist.

A Transition Services Agreement governs the technology and services a seller continues providing post-close. Synoptek helps scope and negotiate TSA terms so you avoid overpaying for extended dependencies or losing critical systems before your own infrastructure is ready.

Most benchmark reports are completed in 4 to 6 weeks, identifying where the target stands against the database, what the gaps are worth in EBITDA terms, and what to prioritize first.

Yes. Synoptek strengthens documentation, scalability, and cybersecurity maturity ahead of a sale, so the technology environment supports a stronger valuation narrative and reduces buyer diligence friction.

Yes. Operating partners can present Synoptek's standardized IT audit template to portfolio company leadership as part of their own governance and value-creation program, without building an internal framework from scratch.

A strong due diligence report template covers technology cost benchmarking, risk scoring across infrastructure and security, EBITDA impact by gap, and a prioritized 100-day integration sequence, so the findings convert directly into deal team action.

Yes. Synoptek's private equity consulting spans the full deal lifecycle, pre-close diligence, TSA support, post-merger integration, and ongoing portfolio-level technology governance, not a one-time assessment.
