Our Methodology

Built by practitioners,
not theorists.

The Valence Score™ was designed by a team of IT due diligence specialists, transformation experts, and M&A finance professionals — drawing on hundreds of real technology assessments across European mid-market companies.

Our 12-dimension framework evaluates everything from data infrastructure and cybersecurity posture to leadership readiness and initiatives in production. Each dimension uses behavioral anchors — not questionnaires — calibrated against real deal outcomes.

The result: a score that’s defensible in front of an Investment Committee, a board of directors, or a potential acquirer.
