A business is one system. So is its value.
Yevhen's work rests on understanding a business as a whole: strategy, product, technology, processes and economics have to pull toward one result. Design and software are never ends in themselves; their worth is how far they help a company grow, run better and create commercial value that can be measured.
He founded The Structure to give buyers and sellers of software companies an independent read of the technology in a deal: what the company owns, what it costs to run, what can break, and what each finding means for the terms.
