- The useful change
- From assembling the context to reviewing the draft.
THE PROBLEM
The deal doesn’t live in one document.
A model holds the assumptions. Previous reports establish the house format. Analyst notes capture the questions, and email threads contain details that never made it into the data room.
Turning that material into a coherent diligence memo means reconstructing the context each time. A generic chat prompt starts too far away from the team’s actual work.
THE APPROACH
Built around the work.
- 01
Learn the team’s method.
Set up a working environment around the team’s folders, report examples, and process. Preserve the original financial sources as the authority.
- 02
Bring the deal context together.
Use the model, rough notes, previous diligence reports, and relevant correspondence to prepare a draft in a familiar structure.
- 03
Leave the judgment with the analyst.
Use the draft to support memo preparation and model review. Keep unanswered questions explicit, and have the analyst edit and check the result.
WHAT THE WORK DELIVERED
A draft the analyst actually worked from.
The analyst used the workspace to prepare a diligence draft from prior reports, a model, notes, and email context. That draft became the starting point for their edits. The same workspace helped them work through questions about model changes.
The information was already in context when the analyst began reviewing. Checking assumptions, resolving open questions, and making the investment decision stayed with the team.
