“Normally, data management in some form comes up in the separation / integration phase and not that often in the preparation phase. I’d argue that’s at an organization’s own peril”

Acquire and Improve - how Data is critical to your
Portfolio Company's Growth
As dry powder accumulates, high competitiveness in Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) firms means that capital structure improvement alone is not enough to generate attractive near-term returns. A considerable opportunity exists for PE & VC firms to leverage data within their portfolio companies for the realisation of increased growth, return, and value. Firms cannot just acquire and wait, but rather acquire and improve. But how?
Optimising Valuations with a Data-Centric Operating Model
PE & VC firms are leaning in and influencing outcomes. While traditional "acquire and improve" and "people and talent" levers are being applied; a growing differentiator is to apply digital transformation and tech investments to derive value. At the core of this is access to and distribution of trusted data.

While it’s not uncommon to provide an analytics based format for performance reporting to the PE & VC Firm –
