Our Activities
> Advisory Services
The acquisition of a gaming resort often requires advisory services beyond the typical financial services provided by investment firms. Working in concert with financial institutions, WhiteSand can provide valuable assessments of the operation, management team, marketing capabilities, loyalty club and overall viability of a gaming operation.
> IT Due Diligence
It is essential to pay particular attention to the technology capabilities of a gaming operation during the acquisition process. The quality, capability, and soundness of the operation are bellwethers as to any potential additional investment that will be required to maintain or create competitive advantages. WhiteSand consultants will review the technology infrastructure & organization, applications & software versions, failover processes & disaster recovery planning, licensing & maintenance requirements, and regulatory compliance. Intrinsic and vital to a successful operation, the integration of IT with key operating departments is often overlooked during the due diligence process. Our report will identify any issues or deficiencies and the associated costs to remedy.
