Один из наших клиентов намеревался приобрести кирпичный завод. На первый взгляд это было крупное и спешное предприятие, завод был загружен готовым кирпичом, завод работал в полную силу, открытие и погрузка происходили каждый час, постоянно.
При проверке выяснилось, что почти все работники — граждане другой страны, с просроченными разрешениями на работу, которые невозможно продлить. Специалистов с аналогичными компетенциями не было. Работающие специалисты не делились своими навыками и методами работы, что было самым важным аспектом в этой деятельности. Они намеревались завершить свой контракт и покинуть страну. Технология изготовления кирпича была засекречена. На заводе не было стандартов по изготовлению кирпича. Земля была арендована с истекшим сроком аренды. Оборудование было растаможено, а документы все еще находились на таможне. Имелась задолженность перед предыдущими владельцами завода и работниками.
Здание, в котором жили рабочие, было незаконной постройкой, и имелось уведомление от государственного органа об устранении нарушения.
Инспекция выявила все эти моменты и факты и предоставила полный отчет и рекомендации по справедливой цене для каждого аспекта риска. А также способы и возможности по времени и стоимости устранения каждого риска.
В итоге сделка состоялась по справедливой цене. Продавец не мог возразить, а покупатель знал, что покупает.

Case study

One of our clients intended to purchase a brick factory. At first glance it looked like a large and hurried company, the plant was loaded with ready bricks, the plant was in full operation, opening and loading were taking place every hour, all the time.
During the checkup it turned out that almost all the workers were citizens of a foreign country, with expired work permits that could not be renewed. There were no specialists with similar competencies. Working specialists did not share their skills and methods of work, which was the most important aspect in this activity. They intended to finish their contract and leave the country. The brick-making technique was classified. There were no standards for brick making at the plant. The land was leased with an expired lease. The equipment had been cleared and the documents were still in the customs office. There was a debt to the previous owners of the plant and employees.
The building where the workers lived was an illegal building, and there was a notification from the state body to eliminate the violation.
The inspection revealed all these points and facts and provided a full report and recommendation of a fair price for each aspect of risk. As well as ways and opportunities in time and cost to eliminate each risk.
In the end, the transaction went through at a fair price. The seller could not object and the buyer knew what he was buying.
