AnotherDay conducted a deep due diligence exercise on a local supplier in a north Africa conflict zone for a client. The objective was to provide the client with detailed and verified intelligence to support their decision-making process.

The research and analysis delivered by the team enabled the client to navigate potential risks and uncertainties associated with the target entity. The client was able to make strategic decisions based on reliable information, ultimately contributing to their success in the market.

The Process

The deep due diligence process involved conducting extensive research, including open source intelligence gathering, confidential human source enquiries, and thorough analysis of available data. The team utilised their expertise and network to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the target entity.

The team began by identifying key stakeholders within the target entity and conducting in-depth research on their backgrounds, affiliations, and roles. They also assessed the entity’s operations, including its market presence, financial stability, and industry partnerships.

Through confidential human source enquiries, the team gathered valuable insights from individuals with knowledge of the target entity, such as former employees, industry experts, and regulators.

Additionally, the team conducted thorough analysis of open source intelligence, including media coverage, government records, and industry publications.

They cross-referenced the information gathered from human sources with the open source data to ensure accuracy and reliability.

The Result

As a result of the deep due diligence process, AnotherDay provided the client with a highly objective view of the target entity. The findings included a detailed assessment of key stakeholders, an analysis of the entity’s operations, and a review of its market reputation.

The report presented a comprehensive overview of the target entity, highlighting its strengths, weaknesses, and potential risks. The client gained valuable insights into the entity’s management structure, financial standing, and industry relationships.
