Due Diligence Meta-Skill

Use When

• Use before presenting a plan to investors, lenders, DFIs, or strategic partners.
• Use when auditing whether claims, numbers, and credentials can survive scrutiny.
• Use for outbound diligence on counterparties where the business itself must verify another party.

Do Not Use When

• Do not use as a substitute for basic drafting or market research.
• Do not assume DD is complete because the plan sounds polished.
• Do not certify claims that have not been checked against documents or verifiable evidence.
