A forensic guide for the modern practitioner.
The discipline of M&A due diligence has shifted from specific retrieval to noise reduction. The threat is no longer missing a document because it wasn't found, but missing a risk signal because it was drowned out by 10,000 files.
These playbooks bridge the gap between legal theory and active, computational analysis. They deconstruct the specific structural risks of the four most capital-intensive asset classes and detail how to identify them using Colabra's lenses.
The recurring revenue mirage.
Understand the fragility of intangible assets. Validate the IP chain of title, open-source dependency risk, and the quality of ARR.

Secure the supply chain and audit the facility. Identify termination risks, environmental liabilities, and permit gaps.
The regulatory minefield.
Healthcare revenue is contingent and revocable. Audit the regulatory history for payor transferability and excluded providers.
The integration engine.
For high-volume buy-and-build strategies. Standardize the diligence process to acquire targets without operational indigestion.
