Case Study: Deloitte achieves rapid technology due diligence with CAST Highlight

Deloitte completes M&A technology due diligence of enterprise e-commerce platform in days

Deloitte worked with a global insurer that needed rapid technology due diligence on a B2B e-commerce platform for automotive parts, with concerns around scalability, modularity, security, and integration risk. Using CAST Highlight, Deloitte assessed a codebase of more than 300K lines without moving the source code off the client’s premises.

CAST helped Deloitte’s Technology M&A team analyze the application in collaboration with the target firm’s architect by providing scanning scripts for on-premises review. The full process was completed in less than 10 days, and the platform was found to be in the top 10% benchmark for e-commerce applications, indicating strong software health, low technical debt, and a short path to the operational changes the client needed.
