The target Skinkers is a developer of information broadcast technology and solutions, providing the world’s first enterprise class, multi-channel message and content delivery technology. The Live Notification Platform delivers ShouldKnow information directly to the most appropriate device (computer, handheld, mobile phone) via the most appropriate channel. This enables organisations to deliver priority notifications through a controlled, highly versatile and secure universal communication platform. The challenge A leading venture capital fund was evaluating a potential investment in Skinkers but needed expert help to assess the business from a technology perspective. They wanted to understand the source code and other technology assets that resided in the company, as well as identifying potential strengths and weaknesses of the software engineering processes and practices in place. The solution Bluetab undertook a focused due diligence review, assessing both of Skinkers' key products: it's corporate messaging platform and its new LiveStation IP-TV service. Our two-man team spent three days on site with key members of the technology organisation, viewing product demos, reviewing engineering methodologies and processes and identifying potential technical issues. We presented our findings to the investment team accompanied by a detailed written report outlining our recommendations. The investor subsequently led a $16 million funding round for Skinkers.
