Thanks for this list - it looks like it will be very helpful. One issue though: this (but also many other checklists I've come across) do not really take into account any IT or Cyber due-diligence. There are a lot of risks in these areas and they often get discounted during the due-diligence process.

Also important is handling the expectations of the intermediary and seller. Everyone should be on the same page early in the process about how intense the due diligence will be and whether there will be follow-on requests based on the result of the initial request.

many thanks for sharing the links. However is there any specific for a DD focused in "operations" for an industrial business?

More communication around expectations for what due diligence will entail is always helpful. Sellers always have some shock when they see a due diligence list. It's good to reduce that.

In addition to hinting at the size of the DD request, I would add the following information for each requested item:

(1) It's priority level (in case some information is not critical)
(2) The (negotiable) date by which you would like to receive it

This helps keep the parties on the same page and hopefully prevents the process of due diligence from damaging the deal.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks!
