OUR DELIVERABLES

What You Get

The deliverables below reflect the actual structure and outputs already used in the completed client audit report.

Deliverable 1

Executive summary with investor takeaways

A concise executive section that summarizes the most important findings from an investor’s perspective. It highlights what is assessed as stable, which areas require further development, which issues may become strategic constraints over time, and what this means for the investment case. This section can include a Green / Amber / Potential Red Flag view, short business implications, and clear conclusions for decision-makers.

Deliverable 2

Organizational maturity assessment

A structured maturity review of the technology organization, based on documented scoring across areas such as team setup, onboarding, mentoring, role clarity, knowledge transfer, and readiness to scale. This part of the report shows whether the current operating model can support growth in delivery pace, complexity, and team size.

Deliverable 3

Roadmap and SDLC maturity review

A dedicated review of how product development is planned and delivered. This includes roadmap discipline, prioritization, alignment between business goals and engineering work, release management, code review, testing, and deployment practices.

SDLC maturity RAG assessment covering code review, testing, and sprint processes

Deliverable 4

AI and Business Intelligence maturity assessment

A focused assessment of how AI and data capabilities are used in both the product and the development process. This includes the maturity of AI implementation, the level of formalization, the quality of data usage, and the organization’s ability to make product and operational decisions based on analytics.

Business Intelligence maturity RAG model with data readiness scoring

Deliverable 5

Technical audit of the application

A detailed application-level review covering architecture, code structure, maintainability, modularity, dependencies, API logic, and the concentration of business logic. This section identifies where the codebase is stable and where the architecture may become a barrier to future product development.

Deliverable 6

Infrastructure audit

A dedicated infrastructure section covering cloud setup, environments, resilience, monitoring, CI/CD, backup mechanisms, disaster recovery, and readiness for increased traffic and transaction volume. The purpose is to determine whether the operational foundation is fit for near-term and medium-term scale.

Infrastructure and security RAG assessment with team and roadmap evaluation

Deliverable 7

Growth scenario and scaling implications

A practical interpretation of what happens when the business scales. This part evaluates whether the platform can support growth scenarios such as higher user volume, more transactions, market expansion, or faster product delivery, and it distinguishes between infrastructure scaling and functional scaling risk.

Deliverable 8

CAPEX / OPEX implications for scaling

A forward-looking view of which cost categories are likely to grow as the platform scales. This includes expert assumptions and planning considerations for infrastructure, tooling, operational overhead, architecture work, and additional engineering capacity.

Deliverable 9

Conclusion and strategic recommendation

A concluding section that brings the findings together into one clear recommendation. It explains whether the platform provides a stable base for growth, what the main long-term constraints are likely to be, and which areas should receive priority attention after the transaction.

FAQ

Common questions.

Read-only access to code repos, cloud console (AWS/Azure), and CI/CD pipelines. If direct access isn't possible, we work with git bundles, Terraform exports, and screenshots. We never need write access or production credentials.

Faster (weeks, not months), cheaper (fixed price, not day rates), and our auditors are practicing engineers who build systems — not consultants who read about them. We've delivered 300+ projects and know what production-ready software actually looks like.

Yes. The Entry Scan findings directly inform the deeper assessment, so nothing is wasted. Many clients start with the scan for screening and upgrade once they're past LOI.

Yes. All work happens under NDA. We're ISO 27001 certified and work through secure virtual data rooms (VDRs). 100% remote, fully confidential.

Java, Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Angular, .NET, Kotlin, Symfony, Django, and more. AWS, Azure, GCP. We have 250+ engineers in our network covering virtually every modern stack.

You get a clear recommendation. If you proceed with the investment, we offer post-investment services: Architecture Audit (€12k), AI Readiness Assessment (€15k), and hands-on engineering support for stabilization and value creation.

THE TEAM

Team Composition

Rapid Tech DD is delivered by a compact senior team that combines business context, architecture review, delivery oversight, and security and infrastructure expertise — a cross-functional audit squad combining BA/PM, Solution Architecture, infrastructure and SecDevOps expertise.

Business Analyst / Project Manager

Responsible for audit coordination, workshop planning, stakeholder communication, IT-business alignment, KPI context gathering, and shaping the final business-facing recommendations. This role ensures that technical findings are translated into a decision-ready narrative for investors and buyers.

Solution Architect

Responsible for application architecture assessment, integration review, technical structure analysis, and the interpretation of architectural risks in the context of scalability and future transformation. This role helps connect code-level findings with strategic platform evolution.

Infrastructure / Cloud Expert

Responsible for reviewing cloud setup, environments, DevOps maturity, deployment practices, resilience mechanisms, disaster recovery, and scaling readiness. This role focuses on whether the operational backbone can support increased load and future growth.

Security / SecDevOps Expert

Responsible for reviewing security implementation, access controls, compliance-related practices, vulnerability exposure, and security process maturity. This role also helps evaluate how well security is embedded into infrastructure and delivery workflows.

Optional supporting roles

Depending on the target complexity, the core team can be extended with additional specialists such as a Business Analyst, Infrastructure Engineer, Security Specialist, or domain-specific experts.

Why this team setup works

This structure allows the assessment to remain rapid while still covering the business, organizational, architectural, infrastructure, and security dimensions that matter most in technology due diligence. It also mirrors the actual way the completed audit was assembled across maturity review, application audit, infrastructure review, and scaling analysis.
