As stated above in relation to due diligence exercises, there is a great value in having commercial HR input into acquisition decisions. It is key from the outset that any risks and issues are highlighted through people focused due diligence. This will allow you to assess the calibre of the team that you are acquiring, identify risks and liabilities and compare the culture of the business in comparison with what you already have in place.
