[ why us/ ]
MEV has been building and operating production software since 2006. Our technical diligence is led by senior engineers and domain specialists who work with real systems, not just documentation and checklists.
[ what we do/ ]
Sell-Side Technical Due Diligence
Prepare for buyer diligence by validating technical strengths, identifying material risks, and setting remediation priorities.
Fundraising Preparation
Validate technical strengths, expose material risks, and establish remediation priorities before kicking off a funding round.
Engineering Effectiveness
When your roadmap is slipping and delivery feels stuck, we pinpoint the real bottlenecks by evaluating your team, process, and tech stack.
Pre-Launch & Integration Audit
A major release, migration, integration, or customer rollout is approaching. We look for issues that could surface once the change reaches production.
Independent Review for Boards, Investors & New Leadership
When new leadership or investors step in, they often require an unbiased baseline of the inherited tech stack. We provide an assessment of the current engineering organization.
System Performance Audit
Performance problems are visible, but the cause is unclear. We trace them across code, infrastructure, integrations, dependencies, and production behavior.
Where evidence exists, we use it. We categorize all findings by confidence level—from direct verification and multi-source corroboration to management input or unassessed data gaps.

[ process/ ]
We skip the processes you don't need.
Free consultation (30–60 min)
Understanding the main concerns, timeline, and scope of the assessment.
Contract and NDA
We put the agreements in place to handle sensitive information.
Technical access
We review what is already available, request any missing evidence, and set up access to relevant systems, repositories, and documentation.
Technical assessment (1–6 weeks)
We assess the agreed areas, validate findings against technical evidence, and run targeted sessions or system walkthroughs where needed.
Final report
We prioritize findings by severity and business impact. Sell-side diligence can include buyer-ready reporting and a value-creation roadmap.
Remediation work (if needed)
We can implement agreed fixes and improvements after the assessment.
Buyer Q&A support (sell-side, if needed)
We help answer technical questions from buyers or their advisors.

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ
Most audits take 1 to 4 weeks. Larger or transaction-related assessments can run for up to 6 weeks, depending on the size of the technology environment, scope, access, and depth of analysis required.
The report documents what we found, the evidence supporting the finding, why it matters, severity and business impact, and the recommended action. Where the evidence supports it, we also estimate remediation effort, timing, dependencies, and cost.
Larger engagements can include an executive summary, prioritized risk register, formal technical diligence report, and remediation or value-creation roadmap.
Yes. We can review testing strategy, automation, coverage of critical workflows, regression and integration testing, performance testing, test environments, and release controls. We’ve done standalone testing and QA audits before.
The more direct the access, the more we can verify independently. We can work with read-only system access, restricted technical review, or documentation and interviews, and we state any resulting limitations in the report.
Typical access can include source-code repositories, CI/CD systems, the application and its components, cloud infrastructure, monitoring and logs, architecture documentation, test artifacts, security reports, and relevant billing or cost information.
Yes. For acquisition-side work, see our Buy-Side Technical Due Diligence service.
Yes. MEV performs independent buy-side and sell-side technical due diligence with senior engineers and domain specialists, including formal diligence reports and executive presentations. Engagements are typically delivered by a smaller senior team, with the scope built around the transaction and the technology being assessed.
