Case Study: Ontario Systems achieves IP assurance and accelerated acquisition due diligence with Synopsys Black Duck audit services

Ontario Systems IP Assurance for Successful Acquisitions

Ontario Systems, a leader in revenue cycle management serving major hospital networks and large accounts‑receivable management firms, faced a common acquisition risk: unknown open‑source components and licensing in target codebases that could jeopardize the intellectual property at the heart of a deal. With tight due‑diligence timelines and investors seeking rapid confidence in the technology, the company needed fast, reliable visibility into IP exposure across multiple codebases.

Ontario engaged Synopsys Black Duck audit services to perform open‑source scans of three critical codebases. The audits quickly uncovered license and component issues that were “eye‑opening,” provided clear, high‑quality reports, and gave investors the assurance needed to move forward—delivering fast, actionable intelligence that reduced IP risk and supported the acquisition decision.
