Technical Due Diligence in Salford
Assessing what a buyer is actually acquiring when technology is a material part of the deal. For Salford investors and acquirers this means the code, the infrastructure, the team and the licensing position — because the risks that surface after completion are rarely the ones in the financial model.
Why this comes up
The problem
Financial and legal diligence is thorough while the technology is taken on the founder's description. The buyer discovers post-completion that the platform depends on one contractor and cannot scale.

Technical Due Diligence in Salford — common questions
- What most often changes a deal?
- Key person dependency and licensing. A platform genuinely understood by one person who may leave is a valuation issue. Open-source licence obligations that require disclosure of derived source can affect what the buyer is actually able to do with the asset.
- How long does it take?
- One to three weeks depending on scope and how cooperative access is. Timelines compress in competitive processes, and it is worth being clear about what a shortened review can and cannot cover.
- What if the target will not give us code access?
- It is common early, and it limits what can be concluded. A great deal can be assessed from architecture discussion, infrastructure and team interviews, and any report should state plainly what was and was not examined.
- How is this different from a code review?
- A code review examines the codebase. This covers code, infrastructure, team, licensing and security, and weights the findings commercially against the transaction rather than as an engineering to-do list.
- Do you work with businesses across Greater Manchester?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North West, including Salford and the surrounding Greater Manchester area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Salford businesses do you usually work with?
- Production and media workflow tools, and design-led builds for a market with unusually high visual standards. Beyond that we work across Media & Broadcasting, Digital & Creative, Higher Education, Logistics and Construction.
- Do you cover the areas around Salford?
- Yes — we work throughout North West, including Manchester, Liverpool, Preston. Salford is an urban area of roughly 270,000+, and we take on work across the wider Greater Manchester region rather than the city boundary alone.
