The problem

CDDs don't cover the revenue engine

Commercial due diligence evaluates market attractiveness and competitive positioning — but it isn't designed to deeply assess internal commercial capability.

  • No view on whether the sales team can actually execute
  • No assessment of pricing, packaging, or GTM maturity
  • No actionable plan to accelerate revenue post-deal
  • What matters isn't if TAM is £15bn or £16bn — it's whether you can grow revenue
The Fortius solution

Inside-out, operational, actionable

We evaluate the full revenue function through the lens of experienced operators — former CROs and Commercial Excellence leads who have scaled businesses themselves.

  • End-to-end assessment across 23 commercial topics
  • Detailed value creation plan with prioritised workstreams
  • Management-endorsed action plan in 2–4 weeks
  • One continuous partner from entry DD to exit narrative
