PRIVATE EQUITY TECHNOLOGY & PORTFOLIO GOVERNANCE

Accelerating Value Creation and Digital Modernization for Private Equity

Maximize EBITDA, accelerate post-merger ERP integration, and conduct high-conviction IT due diligence across private equity portfolio investments.

STRATEGIC PERSPECTIVE

The Private Equity Dilemma: Maximizing Portfolio EBITDA under Accelerated Hold Horizons

Strategic Imperative: Private equity sponsors face compressed holding periods, escalating debt service costs, and severe operational blind spots in acquired mid-market portfolio companies.

Private equity deal partners and operating directors operate under intense pressure to execute 100-day value creation plans and expand EBITDA multiples prior to exit. However, acquired platform companies and bolt-on acquisitions frequently run on fragmented legacy accounting systems, unintegrated supply chains, and fragile IT infrastructure that inflate operational overhead.

Routeget Private Equity Advisory Practice serves as the strategic technology operating partner for mid-market and mega-fund private equity firms. From pre-deal IT due diligence and carve-out Transition Service Agreement (TSA) separation to rapid ERP modernization and portfolio financial consolidation, we de-risk acquisitions and accelerate enterprise value creation.

Our standardized Microsoft Dynamics 365 Cloud Accelerator enables sponsors to stand up modern enterprise ERP environments in under 90 days, eliminate expensive licensing redundancy, and unify portfolio KPI reporting into real-time executive Power BI dashboards.

EXECUTIVE FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions: Private Equity Modernization

Key technical and financial answers for private equity operating partners and deal leads.

How fast can Routeget stand up a standalone ERP for a corporate carve-out to exit a TSA?

Utilizing Routeget’s pre-configured Private Equity Cloud Accelerator for Microsoft Dynamics 365, we stand up fully operational core financial ledgers, banking interfaces, order-to-cash workflows, and payroll connections in 60 to 90 days, ensuring clean separation before costly parent TSA penalty periods commence.

What does your pre-acquisition IT due diligence report include for deal teams?

Our technical due diligence deliverables provide investment committees with a comprehensive risk analysis: evaluation of software architecture and technical debt, cybersecurity vulnerability scans, open-source license compliance audits, IT staffing assessments, and a fully costed 3-year CapEx/OpEx technology roadmap informing your purchase price model.

How do you handle post-merger integration when our platform company acquires bolt-on businesses?

We build standardized integration playbooks. When a new bolt-on acquisition closes, we extract opening balances, map chart of accounts to the platform company’s standard dimensions, and ingest customer records, typically consolidating acquired entities into the core ERP in under 30 days.

Can Routeget consolidate reporting across portfolio companies running different accounting software?

Yes. Utilizing Microsoft Fabric and Azure Data Factory connectors, we ingest financial trial balances from disparate ERPs (NetSuite, QuickBooks, SAP, Dynamics) into a centralized Power BI portfolio data warehouse, providing sponsors with unified monthly EBITDA and cash flow dashboards.
