For private equity and portfolio operators
Your portfolio is paying for the same software many times over.
Every acquisition arrives with its own billing system, its own CRM, its own reporting stack and its own maintenance contracts. CORE helps private equity firms and their portfolio companies see the whole software estate, consolidate what overlaps, and cut what it costs to run.
Where the money goes
Software cost hides in duplication.
Duplicate systems
Several companies running separate tools that do the same job, each with its own licenses, hosting and support contracts.
Legacy carrying cost
Ageing applications that need scarce skills to maintain and fail security reviews, slowing integration and exit preparation.
Unknown risk
No consistent view of quality, security or compliance readiness across companies, until diligence or an incident forces one.
How CORE helps
From a scattered estate to shared platforms.
The same four products, applied across companies instead of within one.
See the whole estate
Evaluate assesses each portfolio company's applications for quality, security and compliance readiness against a common standard, so every system is measured the same way.
Decide what to keep
Overlapping systems are surfaced side by side, each with an effort and cost estimate for consolidating it. Your operating partners and company leaders decide.
Your decisionConsolidate
Re-engineer merges and modernizes the chosen systems onto shared platforms, recovering every business rule first so no company loses how it works.
Keep improving
Optimize handles the changes each company still needs on the shared platform, and Create builds anything genuinely new once, for everyone.
Prove the saving
Run cost and delivery speed are baselined before work begins, so the result is measured rather than claimed.
Start small
Begin with one function across a few companies.
A sensible first step is a single shared function, such as billing, reporting or customer management, across a small group of portfolio companies. It shows what consolidation saves before anyone commits to the rest of the estate.
Operating partners
A consistent view of software cost and risk across the portfolio, and a plan that can be measured.
Portfolio company leaders
Modern, supported systems without losing the business rules their teams rely on.
Value creation and exit teams
Lower run cost, cleaner technology diligence and compliance readiness evidence for buyers.
Self-heal across the estate.
Supported vulnerabilities and compliance gaps found in any company's systems are fixed and re-tested, so the whole portfolio's baseline rises together rather than one company at a time.
Questions from portfolio operators
What does CORE offer private equity firms?
A way to consolidate software across portfolio companies and reduce what it costs to run. CORE assesses every company's applications, surfaces overlapping systems with effort and cost estimates, consolidates them onto shared platforms with business rules preserved, and measures the saving against a baseline.
Is SSDB Tech seeking investment through this page?
No. This page describes a service for private equity firms and their portfolio companies: assessing and consolidating software across the portfolio to reduce cost.
Do portfolio companies lose their own business rules when systems are merged?
No. Re-engineer recovers every business rule from each existing system before consolidation, and parity tests confirm the shared platform behaves as each company needs.
Where should a portfolio start?
Usually with one shared function, such as billing or reporting, across a small group of companies, with run cost baselined first so the saving can be measured.
