Knowledge transfer in succession and M&A
What is your company worth if you are no longer in the office tomorrow?
In a business succession or a sale (M&A), nothing pushes the purchase price down harder than the risk that the decisive knowledge about customers, calculations and processes leaves with the owner.
Explicio turns knowledge that depends on owners or key people into an asset of the company: it is captured in conversations, linked to documents and stored with its provenance. That way it can be handed over and evidenced in a succession or sale.
Knowledge from everyday work — with source and time.
- ✓System before person (asset protection): Turns unwritten founder and expert knowledge into a company asset that can be put on the balance sheet.
- ✓Due-diligence-ready at the push of a button: Processes, supplier rules, contracts and operating figures are logically linked and verifiable.
- ✓Full data sovereignty in your own operation: No leakage of sensitive trade secrets into American clouds.
The same situation in different companies.
What the manual says — and what it doesn't.
- Annual accounts and contracts
- Customer and price list
- Organisation chart
- Supplier contracts
- why the most important customer really stays
- which promise was made on a handshake
- which supplier delivers in a shortage and which doesn't
- which calculation sits behind the quote
Limits that apply — even when nobody asks.
- Explicio does not assess people — not even their value to the company.
- Explicio does not replace due diligence or legal advice.
- Explicio releases knowledge only to those the customer authorises.
