Due diligence
What to Look For
Practical guidance from hundreds of real acquisition conversations.
Contracted Revenue Share
- Ask what percentage of revenue is under written contract and how long each major client relationship has been active.
- Contracts with healthcare facilities, corporate accounts, or government agencies that have already renewed at least once are the most valuable revenue you'll find in this category.
- Understand what the revenue looks like if any single contract doesn't renew, and whether any contracts have change-of-ownership provisions.
- That number tells you more about the business's durability than total revenue or fleet size.
Dispatch Team Independence
- Look for a team that has been together for a while and a dispatch system with documented processes.
- A business where dispatchers handle all scheduling, driver assignments, and client communication without the owner is one you can actually step into.
- Ask what a typical day looks like for the dispatch team and how they handle exceptions when something goes wrong.
- Team tenure in dispatch is a strong signal that operations run reliably and that clients are used to working with people other than the owner.
Fleet Condition and Records
- Ask for a full fleet list with year, mileage, condition, and what's owned versus leased.
- Vehicles with detailed maintenance records, a clear replacement schedule, and current insurance are much easier to evaluate than a fleet with unknown history.
- The age and condition of the fleet directly affects how much capital you'll need in the first few years.
- A well-documented fleet with a clear replacement timeline is a sign the business has been managed with care.
Licenses and Compliance
- Ask for all operating permits, commercial insurance policies, driver certifications, and any healthcare transport credentials.
- A seller who has all of this organized in one place is signaling that the business runs with discipline.
- Gaps in compliance can create problems that are hard to work around after closing.
- Ask about driver background check protocols and how they're documented and maintained.
Client Concentration
- Ask for revenue by client and understand what the business looks like if any single account doesn't renew.
- Revenue spread across a dozen or more facilities and corporate accounts is much more resilient than one large contract driving half the business.
- Ask whether the largest contracts have been renewed at least once already, which tells you the relationship has been tested.
- Long-tenured multi-contract clients are meaningfully more valuable than new large accounts.
