A perspective on due diligence

A brief overview of the type of information required by a due diligence process can be downloaded here (word document). The document lists the necessary information in escalating stages of due diligence. I would encourage anyone going through a due diligence process to get the third party to qualify their interest in an opportunity as quickly as possible. This should be done by sending them a quality set of quality initial information. The due diligence process could easier if the business stored key business information in a single online platform. Please review the Online business and accounting system and the Templates Category for more information.

Business plan template

I have provided some other templates to assist with preparing a business. The available templates are listed in the Templates category. I have always been reluctant to provide these templates.

It is difficult to provide a generic guide which successfully satisfies the specific needs of a company. I offer these templates as something that can provide an insight and may save you some time.

Financial forecast model: A Microsoft Excel template could become an ‘Open source’ project

Financial modelling is highly specialised. A template is useless unless the skills are available to customise it for a specific need. The skills required include Microsoft Excel, a knowledge of accounting standards and being able to communicate the business model by using a financial model. I was reluctant to provide this model, but it does represent a “start” for many people. If you improve the spreadsheet, I would also welcome the opportunity to include those improvements here. Perhaps, we will create an “Open source” financial forecast model for the world. Maybe, the world only needs one and this can be our contribution to the world.
