Cloud Technology and Cloud Business Advisory

Cloud adoption across the enterprise is a growing reality, but much of the usage is in addition to on-premises systems — not in replacement. As a result, these cloud services increasingly require integration back to core internal systems: legacy financials, order management, inventory, HR, manufacturing, and other enterprise systems. Companies are connecting clouds — in strings, clusters, storms, and more — and cobbling together discrete services to create end-to-end business processes. Tactical adoption of cloud is giving way to the need for a coordinated, orchestrated strategy—and for a new class of cloud offerings built around business outcomes.

Integration, data management, and enterprise architecture have long been aspirations for IT. With cloud, these practices have become more complex. And they’ve shifted from leading practices to critical core disciplines. Virtually every enterprise should be developing a strategy to integrate, aggregate, and orchestrate its collection of cloud and on-premises assets.

Fairness Opinion

The approval of substantial transactions by the Board of Directors of private or public companies requires, from a governance standpoint, an opinion on its terms and conditions. In order to satisfy board requirements it is essential that such opinion emanates from an independent source.

digitali provides such opinion in a timely fashion. Its expertise in valuations as well as deal-making is combined with an understanding of transaction documentation and business consideration. Those skills are available on a global basis and are particularly important in the context of cross-border transactions.

Business Development

The development, realization and constant re-evaluation of the strategic positioning of your company is a key element of any entrepreneurial activity. More often than not the strategy is a copy of the strategies from mature markets. Such strategies fall short of country specific necessities which are essential to make your venture a success. Any project or effort needs to be managed by a team of professionals who know the tools and have the right education/skill set in order to manage a project in time and within budget. Controlling the milestones and interacting with your local partners is a key to success. The project financing and provision of capital are often a key success factor for project development. The successful structuring of project financing has been one of the main digitali strengths. In selected cases, digitali is also involved as an equity partner.
