MTC · Industry Depth, Global Breadth

ERP data preparation for financing and transaction due diligence

MTC organises ERP operating data, measure definitions, adjustments and approvals into a traceable foundation, then works with valuation, investment, audit and legal diligence teams on customer concentration, order quality, inventory, margin, cash, contracts and forecast assumptions.

  • Data-request response
    Retrieve records by agreed definition
    Scope and interpretation still require review
  • Quality of performance
    Drill into customer, margin, cash and inventory
    Trace totals to their components and drivers
  • Assumption control
    Separate history, budget, pipeline and scenarios
    Label history, budgets and scenarios separately

The required diligence depth determines the system scope

Business One can establish the operating and finance record for a growing entity. Complex groups, multiple entities and deeper integration should compare the standard cloud and private-cloud S/4HANA paths.

Data and control gaps exposed during due diligence

Metrics have no single definition
Revenue, active customers, committed orders, inventory and adjustments differ by file.Business impact:Inconsistent definitions delay responses and require repeated clarification.
Operating measures do not trace to transactions
Margin, concentration and order growth are calculated mainly in spreadsheets.Business impact:The team cannot reproduce a sample consistently.
Forecast assumptions mix with history
Management scenarios, sales pipeline and signed orders are not clearly separated.Business impact:A change to an assumption requires the analysis to be reworked in full.

Diligence data and professional collaboration

How does ERP data move into a transaction data room?
ERP provides approved operating data; the data-room process applies transaction-specific selection, masking, access, version control and question tracking, with an approval record for each disclosure.
What makes system data ready for professional review?
Each measure needs a definition, scope, cutoff date, manual-adjustment record and review, with samples traceable to source transactions and approvals.
Does every investor question require a new report?
Stable transaction data and agreed definitions allow many questions to be answered by recombining existing dimensions. New reports can then serve genuinely new management or transaction decisions.
How does MTC support valuation and diligence teams?
MTC delivers the ERP and data-process work, organising measure definitions, source records, adjustments, approvals and version history for review, and works with valuation, audit, tax, legal and investment teams on system and data questions.
