M&A Integration and Value Maximization

We assist with maximizing the value (synergy) captured in the deal thesis.

Revenue and Cost synergies are identified upfront, and we can assist in maximizing them
Digital Transformation is often the driver for unlocking the value and offering the competitive advantage, efficiency and customer value
Infrastructure, data, and security considerations are key and will be important to achieve the targeted synergies and minimize risks due to the M&A

We assist with providing Integration, Transformation and Separation Management Offices depending on the nature and the scale of the M&A.

A portfolio would be created, and joint prioritization done depending on the urgency and the capacity of the organizations
Risks and Issues will be identified and tracked.
Security plans and activities will be created and executed to minimize risk
Organizational Change Management plans would be jointly created and executed
The SMO will also ensure that the assets are tracked and optimized

We assist with assessing managing/executing the integrations/divestitures.

Leveraging experience driving several large M&A integration/divestitures we can help create the playbook where the approach, stakeholders, process, standards/principles, communication plan, and technology related actions captured
Leveraging the playbook, a clear plan is laid out for the Day One critical tasks
Communication plans and change management is driven to ensure there is role clarity, accountability and authority established across all levels
The future state design will be created with the proposed organization structures, roles, responsibilities and a system integration plan will be created
Depending on the complexity of the integration and the how critical it is to be integrated, prioritization of various initiatives will be jointly performed considering the maturity and capacity of the acquiring and the acquired company
In case of divestitures, a similar plan will need to be created to ensure a clean cutoff including a TSA of services that will be performed by the parent company for the shared services that will be provided
Appropriate separation techniques for the data will need to be established
A short, medium and long-term scope and integration plan will be laid out along with the synergy capture
