Commercial Due Diligence

Our client is a US-based technology company using artificial intelligence (“AI”) to provide logistics planning and execution services for the Automotive Retail, Fleet & Rental, and OEM & Auto Auction industries. As our client explored the possibility of selling its business, Nepanoa was engaged to perform a global commercial due diligence to assess the company’s global market size and competitiveness.
