What Are Due Diligence Standards?
The Due Diligence Standards are tools to continually improve the quality, consistency, effectiveness and efficiency of due diligence services and programs.
Producing higher economic growth than patents and licenses, standards benefit organizations significantly at both the short and long term strategic level, with advantages in competitive position, agility, innovation, and profitability. Standards are a critical part of any successful business.
Standards are around us everywhere: the number system, weights and measurements, the monetary system, cellular phones, nuts & bolts, telephones, language, and world trade.
Due Diligence Standards are precise, optimum and practical policies and procedures emphasizing core principles rather than checklists and facts.
The Association of Due Diligence Professionals, a private, nonprofit, independent and impartial organization, develops, maintains, and updates the Due Diligence Standards. Due Diligence Press publishes the Due Diligence Standards.
