PE Operating Partner
Read the cohort before
the Thursday partner review.
Northwake is the daily diagnostic practice for the PE operating partner seat. The agents read every holding's cash conversion, supplier exposure, and regulated-diligence signals every morning and land a cohort roll-up your partners can sign against — not five separate briefs queued behind one person's calendar.
Per-portfolio briefings
The three reads every cohort briefing carries.
What the diagnostic loop reads on your behalf across every holding — every morning, before the partner review — so the LP call, the IC deck, and the regulated-diligence worksheet are all anchored to the cohort you've actually been running. Not a quarterly retro. Not five separate briefs.
Portfolio-wide cash conversion
Multi-holding DSO, DPO, and cash-conversion-cycle telemetry, holding by holding, refreshed against a rolling 30/90/365-day baseline. The cohort roll-up in your next LP note isn’t read off the last quarter’s vendor export — it lands on the morning the next valuation committee meets.
Multi-company briefing feeds
One briefing feed per holding, normalised against the same diagnostic loop. The morning read covers the whole portfolio without five separate briefs queued behind the calendar of one person — the loop writes to every holding on the same overnight pull, with the anomalies in the same place.
Diligence speed
Competitive, freight, and supplier pricing reads on a regulated-diligence overlay, so the diligence clock reads days, not weeks. The audit trail your future counterpart — or your future regulator — walks is reproducible from the underlying record every step of the way.
A morning briefing, as delivered
One read, every holding, before the partner review.
A glimpse at what lands in your inbox at 06:00 local — the cohort-wide briefing written by the diagnostic loop, with the anomalies tagged to the holding that pays for them. The partner review gets the same artefact every Thursday.

Trust
The commitments the next engagement letter is signed against.
Every Northwake engagement is signed against the same standing commitments — the operating-partner frame of the trust statement on /about, tuned for the cohort roll-up, the regulated-diligence overlay, and the diligence trail you'll eventually walk.
A diligence trail reproducible from the underlying record
Every cost, freight, and counter-party read Northwake surfaces is reproducible from the underlying record. The diligence trail your next auditor — or your next regulator — eventually walks is the same trail the diagnostic loop writes against from day one. No shadow ledger, no retro-fitted memo, no "trust the dashboard" deflection when the LP calls.
The senior review layer returns at the pressure points
The agents run the continuous, unglamorous work across every holding in the cohort. The senior review layer returns at exactly two pressure points: the regulated-overlay read when the question is alleged misconduct, sanction exposure, or counter-party risk, and any single-holding event the partners need a boardroom-ready draft on by Monday.
Records sit inside a single-tenant envelope, per holding
Each portfolio sits inside its own isolation envelope — single-tenant, signed, encrypted, regional placement set per engagement. Holdings never pool data into a shared model; nothing leaves your engagement to train a general corpus, and no operator at Northwake pokes through without an explicit, traceable reason.
Next step
Open the intake, or write to us directly.
Most operating-partner conversations open with the intake — the cohort framing reads off the holdings list, the source systems, and the regulated-diligence overlay you attach on day one. If the framing above doesn't match your seat, write to us and the Northwake team replies the same morning.
