Fission Consulting Information

Fission Consulting, headquartered in Chicago, helps private equity clients use IT to maximize the return from their portfolio companies. Maximization of returns starts with a proper due diligence. Significant technology debt can be hiding in any deal. IT organizations are rarely sized to support the future NewCo. Our team has completed hundreds of technology due diligences for $50M to $50B+ companies. After the deal closes, the work of separation begins. This is one of the largest, riskiest components of any transaction. Second only to a new implementation, carving out the ERP system has potential to cause significant business disruption. Our team ensures go-live becomes a "non-event." Finally, IT investments can be made throughout the hold period in order to further improve operations and prepare for exit. We invest in long term relationships with our clients because there is value to be found throughout the investment. The right carve out strategy and continuous improvement allow for a clean exit and maximum investor return.
