Features
An end-to-end acquisition origination platform
Organised around the jobs behind UK acquisition origination — from defining the market to qualifying owner interest.
A. Market definition
Define and build an acquisition market
Start with a clear acquisition mandate and build a persistent target population before enriching individual companies.
- Acquisition mandates
- SIC discovery
- Universe sizing
- Geographic criteria
- Structural company criteria
- Persisted search / universe workflow
B. Screening & prioritisation
Screen and prioritise UK companies
Use structural company data, ownership, succession and financial information to eliminate poor fits and focus on stronger targets.
Ownership, director and financial signals are screening and prioritisation signals only — not evidence that an owner wants to sell.
- Companies House company data
- PSC and ownership analysis
- Director and succession signals
- Financial screening
- Acquisition Review
- Shortlist / reject workflow
- Data status and provenance where applicable
C. Contacts & outreach
Identify contacts and prepare outreach
Move from shortlisted companies to named contacts and outreach readiness. Outreach remains user-controlled.
- Company contacts
- Contact identification and management
- Outreach readiness
- Outlook integration
- LinkedIn / Prosp workflow where applicable
- Touch and activity history
- Manual and inbound activity logging
- Duplicate and DNC safeguards where applicable
D. Follow-up & operating workflow
Stay on top of follow-up and next actions
Every target has a clear next step. The operating workflow keeps outreach and follow-up organised rather than scattered across inboxes and notes.
- Next actions
- Due dates
- Blockers
- Follow-up management
- This Week queue
- Activity history
- Pipeline progression
E. Seller qualification
Qualify owner interest consistently
Capture the information that determines whether an owner conversation is a genuine acquisition opportunity.
- Owner responses and conversations
- Motivation
- Sale / process status
- Timing
- Price expectation
- Prior offers / process information where captured
- Management succession / owner dependency
- Handover willingness
- Non-financial priorities
- NDA status
- Next action
F. Pipeline & governance
Track opportunities through the origination pipeline
Progress qualified opportunities with a clear, user-controlled workflow and a visible stage history.
- Qualified opportunities
- Stage progression and history
- Funnel tracking
- User-controlled workflow
- Connected services
- Reporting where already live
- Role and access controls where relevant
Clear about the data
What the data can — and cannot — tell you
UK private-company filings vary considerably in detail. Confirmed, derived, estimated and unavailable information is shown distinctly so that missing data is not presented as false precision.
