Wherever there is a need to understand, interpret and appraise a complex situation, Trigon Diligence can assist the decision making process by addressing key questions such as:

Our methodology involves a detailed assessment of the managerial, marketing, technical, environmental, financial, economic and social aspects of a proposal, whether it is process improvement, cost reduction or new investment.

The overall objectives are to identify clear opportunities and ensure that risks and the rewards have been fully assessed, that the  concept is commercially sound and cost competitive and that good environmental and social practices are being applied.

We believe it is important each case is well researched, clearly presented and provides managers, or investors, with the range, quality and depth of information they require and a solid business case which can withstand critical analysis.
