About Cosworth
Cosworth is a globally recognised engineering firm known for high-performance electronics and powertrain systems. With a legacy dating back to 1958, the group serves motorsport teams, vehicle manufacturers, and performance-focused brands around the world.
The Challenge
During the sale of Adaero Precision Components Ltd to Indutrade AB, Cosworth needed to securely share large volumes of sensitive legal and financial documents with multiple parties in different locations.
“We needed more than Dropbox or memory sticks. We required a truly secure file sharing system, with full confidentiality and easy access control.”
— Louise Breen, PA to CEO, Cosworth Group Holdings
The Solution
Recommended by their corporate finance advisors, Cosworth turned to Projectfusion to provide a secure virtual data room. The platform allowed them to:
- Control user access
- Maintain a clear audit trail
- Back up every document
- Ensure smooth collaboration across stakeholders
“We were initially apprehensive about using a new platform. But from day one, we were impressed. Features like automatic document indexing made everything easier to control.”
The Experience
Despite being new to data rooms, the Cosworth team found Projectfusion fast to learn and easy to use, with expert guidance just a message away.
“I cannot fault the service, from first interaction to last. Their support is technically first class, and the product is extremely simple to use. 10 out of 10 for customer service.”
The Results
- Confidential sale completed smoothly
- Quick access for multiple parties
- Trusted support throughout the deal
“Projectfusion helped us progress the transaction quickly and efficiently. We had full trust in the system.”
Outcome: Indutrade AB acquired 100% of Adaero Precision Components Ltd from Cosworth Group Holdings Ltd, in a deal involving £4.4M in annual sales.
