Technical due diligence

Review the technical basis for a decision.

What we do

Technical due diligence examines the background, condition and assumptions of a project or facility. Its purpose is to identify gaps and uncertainties relevant to a decision, within a defined scope and review criteria.

Distinguish evidence, assumptions and outstanding items

A technical review must make clear which information supports a conclusion and which matters require verification. The assessment may focus on design, asset condition, execution readiness or intervention needs.

Findings are organised according to their relevance to the decision. The technical review provides information for the evaluation process and is coordinated with other disciplines where the scope requires it.

Service scope

The scope is defined according to asset condition, project stage and available information.

Review of background information

Documentation is analysed against the agreed objective and criteria. Inconsistencies or gaps are recorded to inform queries and additional checks.

  • Design basis and technical documents
  • Scope status and consistency
  • Gaps and verification queries
Technical capabilities

Review a project using verifiable evidence

Definition and technical feasibility

The review compares the intended scope with studies, site conditions and supply arrangements. Conclusions distinguish verified information, assumptions and matters requiring further analysis.

  • Study and engineering maturity
  • Site conditions and infrastructure
  • Gaps affecting the decision

Condition and operational readiness

For existing assets, the assessment connects performance, integrity and intervention needs. For projects under development, it reviews dependencies and handover readiness based on the available information.

  • Operating and inspection records
  • Execution constraints
  • Recommendations and outstanding checks

Deliverables and coordination

Information for decision-making

Deliverables are agreed when the service is defined. The bases used, results and outstanding checks are documented so that the information can carry through to the next stage.

  • Review report and sources used
  • Findings and uncertainty register
  • Verification recommendations and next steps
Background information to get started

An initial review confirms what information is available and what needs to be completed. To prepare for that discussion, it is useful to have:

  • Review objective and pending decision
  • Technical documentation and project status
  • Agreed access to information and facilities
