Contract holders Awarded contractors / Suppliers / Service providers

You won the contract. Now go deliver it.

Dealdrum gets you the working capital to deliver an awarded contract — verified investors, controlled deal room, no upfront fees, paid only when you close.

Built for awarded government supply contracts, project-backed receivables, LPO finance, performance bonds, and supplier finance against credible paymasters.

The problem

Stop chasing the bank. Stop calling brokers.

Most holders we meet have spent 3–6 months pitching banks that don't understand contract finance, or chasing brokers who quietly take a cut. Dealdrum fixes both.

01"The bank wants 3 years of audited statements and 200% collateral."
->
Contract is the collateral. We underwrite the paymaster.
Dealdrum investors evaluate the credibility of the paymaster (Ministry, agency, SOE, corporate) — not your audited history. If the paymaster is real and the contract is real, your funding case is much stronger than what a bank's commercial-lending desk would see.
02"A broker said yes, then disappeared, then asked for an upfront fee."
->
0% upfront. One transparent success fee at close.
Dealdrum charges 1.5% – 2.5% of the funded amount, paid only at closing. There is no application fee, listing fee, monthly subscription, or "expediting" charge. If your deal doesn't close, you owe nothing.
03"I sent my contract on WhatsApp. Now I don't know where it is."
->
One encrypted room. You see every investor who opens it.
Your contract lives in a per-deal encrypted room. Every document access is logged. Investors only enter after signing a per-deal NDA you approve. You can revoke access at any time.
04"Months pass. The performance window is closing."
->
Verified deals reach mandate-matched investors in days.
Once verified, your anonymized teaser goes on the marketplace and is matched against investor mandates immediately. Median time from verification to first investor indication is 8 days.
05"Different investors keep asking for the same documents."
->
One data room. Every approved investor sees the same proof.
One canonical document set lives in the room. Verification artifacts (paymaster confirmation, RGD registration, bank statements) are shared once and reused by every investor — no duplicate diligence requests.
06"I don't know which investor is serious."
->
Activity log shows who read what and indicated commitment.
Every investor action is on record: who opened which document, who left questions, who indicated an amount, who passed. Your Dealdrum reviewer flags the ones moving toward a real commitment.
How it works

Four steps from award to funded.

No self-service signup. No anonymous form mill. Every holder gets a dedicated reviewer who reads your contract and tells you, plainly, whether Dealdrum is a fit.

A short form. No signup. No commitment.

Tell us the basics — your contract paymaster, the award value, and how much funding you need. A real reviewer reads your submission within one business day and responds.

BeforeEndless calls and PDFs sent to brokers who never come back.
AfterOne form. One reviewer. A real answer in 24 hours.

Verification: 5 – 10 days. Done once, used forever.

If your contract is a fit, a reviewer collects KYC (you + your company), validates the paymaster directly with the awarding institution, and verifies the contract is real. Once verified, an anonymized teaser goes on the marketplace.

BeforeEvery investor re-runs their own due diligence on you.
AfterOne verification, then every investor sees the same vetted record.

Verified investors enter your deal room.

Investors who match your deal sign a per-deal NDA before they see anything. You approve who enters. Chat, document Q&A, and activity all live inside the room — nothing on WhatsApp, nothing on email, nothing lost.

BeforeYou guess who's serious. They guess if you're real.
AfterInvestor activity is visible. Indications of interest are explicit.

Investor commits. Funds disburse. You deliver.

Terms are signed inside the room. Funds disburse through Dealdrum-controlled accounts. You deliver the contract, repayment flows back, and Dealdrum charges the one success fee — only at close.

BeforeMonths from "yes in principle" to actual disbursement.
AfterMost deals close in under 6 weeks end-to-end.

FAQ

Before you submit.

Who actually funds my deal?

Verified investors on the Dealdrum platform — family offices, fund managers, institutional SPVs, and a network of Ghana-focused capital providers. Every investor is human-approved by Dealdrum before they ever see a deal. You see who's looking at your room and approve who can see your contract.

How long does it really take?

Verification takes 5 – 10 business days from the day you submit complete documents. Investor matching typically takes 1 – 3 weeks once verified. Many of our deals close in under 6 weeks end-to-end, though larger or more complex deals can take longer.

What if I already have a relationship with one specific investor?

Then Dealdrum becomes your Private Trust Room — you bring your own investor, we provide the encrypted deal room, document control, and audit trail. Pricing for this path is usage-based, not success-fee. See pricing for details.

Is my contract safe?

Yes. Bank-grade encryption in transit and at rest. Investors only see what you explicitly release into the room. Every document access is logged. Read the full security policy.

What if the bank already turned me down?

That's the most common story we hear. Banks underwrite the borrower; Dealdrum's investors underwrite the contract. A contractor who can't get a bank loan can still raise capital if the paymaster is credible and the contract is real.

I have multiple contracts. Can I bring them all?

Yes — once you're verified as a holder, every new contract goes through a much shorter review. Bring as many as you want.

Does Dealdrum take an equity stake?

No. Dealdrum is not an investor — it's the infrastructure between you and the investors. We charge a transparent success fee, that's it.
