Assess whether management can run this without the founder (541446)

Situation

Customer-contract risk reviewer owns management can run this inside a family-office reviewing a manufacturing target with post-merger systems-integration risk register as the only packet. A customer who just sent a non-renewal is what changed the clock for this M&A Due Diligence Legal, IP, and Regulatory file.

Decision

Customer-contract risk reviewer in a family-office reviewing a manufacturing target must choose Proceed / Reprice / Walk / Hold using post-merger systems-integration risk register after a customer who just sent a non-renewal.

Hypotheses to test

• Post-merger systems-integration risk register reads as Proceed once a customer who just sent a non-renewal is lined up to the same M&A Due Diligence population.
• Post-merger systems-integration risk register is closer to Reprice after a customer who just sent a non-renewal; Proceed would over-claim this Legal, IP, and Regulatory extract.
• Walk is still live in post-merger systems-integration risk register for customer-contract risk reviewer in a family-office reviewing a manufacturing target.
• Post-merger systems-integration risk register is missing the fact customer-contract risk reviewer needs after a customer who just sent a non-renewal; stop this M&A Due Diligence close.

Analysis required

• Name the document customer-contract risk reviewer still needs before signing.
• Test whether a customer who just sent a non-renewal is a diligence gap, a price chip, or a walk-away.
• Separate a one-off add-back from a recurring earnings issue in post-merger systems-integration risk register.
• For this M&A Due Diligence Legal, IP, and Regulatory file, read post-merger systems-integration risk register against a customer who just sent a non-renewal and write the one fact that would move management can run this for customer-contract risk reviewer.

Recommendation

Choose Proceed / Reprice / Walk / Hold on this M&A Due Diligence / Legal, IP, and Regulatory packet (post-merger systems-integration risk register after a customer who just sent a non-renewal). The follow-on Legal, IP, and Regulatory action is what customer-contract risk reviewer does next: implement the option, assign an owner, and log the missing fact.
