Technical Due Diligence

Technical due diligence gives an independent, third party assessment of operational assets (vessels) and infrastructure (shipyards, ports and terminal facilities).

Technical due diligence is typically undertaken as part of an overall due diligence process as a pre-requisite to a major transaction or project investment.
