LOCATION: UK
PROJECT TYPE: H&S Due Diligence
A private equity firm engaged Quensh to conduct a comprehensive health and safety (H&S) due diligence review on a target acquisition.
The client aimed to uncover any potential “red flags” or regulatory liabilities that might be inherited through the transaction. In addition, they sought to understand potential post-acquisition costs related to H&S compliance and improvements.
Recognising that overlooked health and safety issues can lead to significant legal, financial, and reputational consequences, the client wanted assurance that any risks were identified and addressed early in the acquisition process.
- Risk mitigation for client, who will avoid inheriting unknown liabilities
- Financial clarity through quantification of potential costs
- Legal protection as due diligence ensured client met legal obligations
- Stakeholder confidence bolstered through health & safety commitment
- Strategic decision-making easier for final negotiations
