Financial Modeling precisely quantifies the economic dimension of the IT landscape. Using detailed analyses of financial indicators, we model the value of IT systems, processes, and investments. Our approach integrates operational data, capital expenditures, and forecasts to realistically calculate the return on investment and potential synergies. Through scenario analyses and well-founded risk assessments, financial opportunities and challenges are made transparent. This model-based evaluation provides decision-makers and investors with a reliable basis for assessing IT value in the context of M&A transactions, making data-based strategic decisions, and sustainably supporting the economic success of the deal.
