Plan A Technologies Enhances Technical M&A Due Diligence with New AI Assessment Tool
In a major move to bolster its technical M&A due diligence capabilities, Plan A Technologies, a prominent AI and software engineering company, has announced the acquisition of a stealth AI assessment tool. This new technology aims to revolutionize how the company evaluates complex technology environments and uncovers potential risks, patterns, and opportunities often overlooked by traditional assessment tools.
Plan A Technologies has established itself as a trusted partner for private equity firms, strategic buyers, enterprise organizations, and private investors who require deep insights into technology-intensive transactions. As the demand for reliable technical due diligence grows, the company is keen to address critical questions regarding acquisitions, such as the actual strength of the underlying technology, hidden risks that might not surface during management presentations, scalability issues, integration challenges, potential modernization needs, and further investments required post-acquisition.
The newly acquired AI tool complements Plan A's existing proprietary analysis techniques, enhancing their ability to deliver insightful evaluations. Slav Kulik, the co-founder of Plan A Technologies, emphasizes the importance of not just identifying a lengthy list of issues, but rather distinguishing between manageable technical debt and risks that could significantly alter the transaction's cost profile. This refined understanding is essential for clients as they navigate the complexities of their acquisitions.
Traditional technical due diligence practices have relied heavily on expert interviews, manual code reviews, architectural analysis, documentation examination, and commercially available code scanning. The integration of this novel AI technology allows Plan A to process exceptionally large and fragmented technology ecosystems with improved speed and accuracy, detecting patterns and anomalies that conventional methods might miss.
Kulik adds, "The value of technical judgment plays a crucial role. Our approach marries AI capabilities with the experience of professionals who have hands-on experience in building, scaling, resolving issues, integrating, and evaluating production systems. This synergy enables us to pose more pertinent questions and provide a comprehensive picture of the assets our clients are acquiring."
The architect behind the new tool, Serhii Melnychuk, has joined Plan A Technologies to lead its integration and further developments. Melnychuk expresses excitement about seeing his invention contribute to an enhanced evaluation process. He remarks, "I aimed to create a tool to assist experts in their tasks and to connect disparate signals across various systems. Seeing it integrated into Plan A's strategy and utilized by clients globally is incredibly rewarding."
The acquisition is part of a broader strategy at Plan A, which focuses on developing and acquiring proprietary technologies that enhance their specialists' effectiveness in various roles—from engineers and architects to data specialists and technology advisors.
While enhancing technical M&A due diligence is a significant part of Plan A's business strategy, it represents just one aspect of their comprehensive offerings. The company is also engaged in designing and building new software products, deploying proprietary AI agents, modernizing legacy applications, developing data platforms, migrating infrastructure to the cloud, and solving intricate engineering problems. This wide range of capabilities ensures that during M&A engagements, Plan A’s teams possess real-world experience, going beyond a simple audit to assess technology; they are actively involved in the development and operationalization of these systems.
For clients, this means that assessments can extend past identifying issues to defining optimal paths forward. Should it be necessary, Plan A can also mobilize engineering teams to execute the developments outlined in the assessment roadmap following the transaction.
