What kind of people would you search for to retain to help sniff out red flags the board might miss in situations like this? I know that it’s in the board’s job description, but who can you hire as a sanity check for such a big decision?

Someone who has done it before at slightly smaller scale. To grow a business from $50m to $200m in five years hire someone who grew a division from $10m to $50m in five years, ideally at a company where not every division grew at that rate.
