M&A Operationalization
Even though, M&A transactions should improve the operational and financial results of both parties, it goes without saying that the separation as well as the integration process is a very complex undertaking with a constant probability of failing.
Successful M&A operationalization requires full attention from the beginning of the due diligence and negotiation phase and requires a tight project management and rigorous monitoring until completion of the stabilization phase.
Our proven methodology ensures a structured and strictly managed separation or integration project. By focussing on change management, business processes and IT landscape as well as on contract-related topics (supplier, customer and inter-company), we enable a smooth transition to the DivestCo and RemainCo target operating models.
