Data Quality and Consistency

In Private Markets, ensuring accurate, consistent, and up-to-date information within CRM systems can be challenging. Firms typically manage large volumes of complex data from multiple sources, and if they fail to maintain it properly, they create duplicate, incomplete, or outdated records.

Customisation for Complex Deal Tracking

Private markets use unique workflows and deal structures that often fail to align with standard CRM setups. So, firms often require extensive customisation to handle complex deal tracking, relationship mapping, and reporting. These customisations consume time and increase costs.

Integration with Other Systems

Private markets firms rely on multiple systems that need to work together. So, firms often find it technically challenging to integrate the CRM with other systems and create a unified view of data. Additionally, firms must carry out ongoing maintenance to keep all systems in sync.

User Adoption and Training

Encouraging team members to fully adopt, as well as consistently use a Private Markets CRM system is another common challenge. Because, without proper training and buy-in, users may revert to old habits or underutilise the CRM’s capabilities. Therefore reducing the system’s effectiveness.

Bridgepoint PE and Credit

PE and Credit

We were engaged to assist Bridgepoint with the implementation of the DealCloud platform across their PE and Credit business. Against a very tight implementation timeline our team worked closely with Bridgepoint to define and document the processes and build requirements, then oversee the implementation, testing and data migration process. Our involvement significantly reduced the burden on Bridgepoint’s limited internal capacity, as well as minimising the DealCloud implementation team cost. In addition, it allowed the go-live deadline to be achieved successfully.

45 Team/1,000+ User Firmwide DealCloud Reimplementation

The firm had implemented DealCloud without external support, resulting in a platform which was unable to support the needs of the business. So, it|venture was engaged to lead the reimplementation of the platform across 45 teams and circa 1,500 users, leveraging our vast experience to rebuild the entire data model. We reduced user entry fields by 60%, as well as building new functionality and simplified firm wide reporting. Therefore meeting the complex needs of this extremely large and diverse business.

PE Investment Management

We were engaged to review the client’s implementation of DealCloud and identify a programme of work to address a series of post implementation failures. So, we leveraged our industry expertise to quickly understand the client’s business and determine that this hadn’t been understood by the vendor team, leading to a poorly built site. Therefore, work to address the shortcomings included the rebuild of core objects, the remapping of data and the roll-out of new fit for purpose reporting.
US and Europe

Multi-Strategy PE

We were engaged to support the client in the pre-go-live site refinement, data migration, as well as testing phase of their DealCloud implementation. So, working closely with the client teams our consultants were able to accurately document and test to ensure all required functionality had been provisioned, together with testing and refinement of the data migration exercise performed by DealCloud. Following go-live our team was retained to provide post go-live hyper care support, as well as user training to ease adoption.
