VIRTUAL DATA ROOMS

Over the past 11 years PLM has conducted due diligence on over $38B worth of assets, during 85+ transactions.  We’ve seen a wide variety of VDR “solutions” to share data regarding those assets.  We realized early on that we needed to provide a stable, secure, organized platform to facilitate those transactions, and we now have a mature service offering to support our clients’ M&A activities, the PLM VDR Platform, powered by Overdrive.  

Pull all of your asset data in a structured format, and quickly provide appropriate information at each stage of the negotiation.
