SUPPORT & CONSULTANCY

Contract Due Diligence - Completed a work package for short term Due Diligence support to the Apache Integrated Operation Support (IOS) solution.

Due Diligence is an essential activity allowing our customer to conduct an audit of the existing health of the service achieved under the current contract and acts as a risk reduction exercise prior to delivery of the support solution.

The purpose of conducting the DD Audits is to establish the accuracy of the resources including facilities, assets and information provided by the Authority and to confirm that a “going concern” exists, which will enable the customer to provide the support services in accordance with the Contract.  This is achieved by conducting an analysis and review of performance, resources, assets, information, documents, data, facilities, equipment, supplies, personnel and procedures.
