Private Equity Due Diligence & Value Creation

We support investors with deep, operationally grounded due diligence across data, AI, digital, and cyber risk. Our team of former global CDOs and CISOs brings frontline insight into what actually drives or derails enterprise value.

Whether you’re evaluating a pre-deal target or stress-testing a portfolio company’s digital maturity, we deliver independent, execution-ready assessments that go beyond checkbox reviews.

What we deliver:

• Detailed analysis of data, tech, and AI maturity
• Cyber security posture and risk exposure assessments
• Validation of value creation levers
• Red flag identification and post-deal action plans

Why it matters:

Most diligence misses the operational reality. Ours doesn’t. We’ve led transformation from the inside and we bring that experience to every engagement.

Empiriq Group helps executive teams and boards build strategies that unlock real business value from data, AI, and cyber resilience. Our advisors don’t just write strategy. They’ve delivered it in complex, high-stakes environments.

From enterprise data operating models to AI governance and cyber maturity uplift, we guide you from ambition to implementation with clarity and confidence.

What we deliver:

• Enterprise data and AI strategy development
• Operating model and governance design
  AI ethics and risk frameworks
• Cyber security strategy and transformation planning

Why it matters:

You don’t need more theory. You need practical, business-aligned strategies from people who’ve done it before at scale and under pressure.

We work with investors and portfolio leadership teams to build and execute value creation plans that accelerate performance from day one. Our focus is on data, AI, digital and cyber where most value creation plans lack depth or fail to deliver.

From designing the 100-day plan to shaping long-term operating models, we bring clear priorities, accountable owners and measurable outcomes.

What we deliver:

• Targeted 100-day plans aligned to the investment thesis
• Data and digital maturity uplift programs
• AI and automation use case identification
• Operating model design and execution roadmap
• Cyber risk mitigation aligned to business priorities

Why it matters:

Time kills value. We bring the experience to get traction quickly, avoid common pitfalls and ensure that your digital and data ambitions don’t stall after close.
