How to Ensure Merger & Acquisition Integration Success [M&A Restructuring Best Practices]

Mergers and acquisitions are initiated with grand visions of increased profits, synergies, and efficiency gains - yet most fail to integrate and deliver business value. With millions of dollars of inefficiencies, redundancies, and lost revenue growth as a result of lack of post-merger M&A integration synergy, leaders and private equity investors in these companies need a better approach.
Our team works with a number of companies that have grown through mergers and acquisitions, and there are a number of common things we help these companies do to avoid M&A integration failures. These best practices range from getting executive alignment, integrating business processes and systems, and managing organizational changes. This video explains these M&A integration best practices in more detail.

Step 1 get executive allignment - top mgmt level. What the growing organization will look like. Decisions to be made. New executive members and need to make decisions how the future of the company gonna look like. Step 2 assess current systems and processes, as well as current technology you have. Get inventory of what you have and not to get things same, but because you want to do gap analysis, to look at how the companies are different and how to get it all together. Step 3 assess your organization/people. Culture misaligned, culture arent changed, organizational design, understanding people roles and responsibilities. Look for roles and responsibilities redundancy and discrepancy. What we want culture as a combined entity fully integrated be like. To do this, is to conduct organization assesment, look at quanti and quali aspects of the orga and culture. Step 4 identify potential improvements. You've assessed your people, operations, processes, systems and executives are alligned. So what is it we want to change. We cannot change over nights. Prioritze what is our transition plan. That doesnt Overwhelmed your organization. One that is aggressive but not too much change and risks. Business value of the M&A. Step 5 define your transformation roadmap. How are we going to roll it out. What is our transformation plan. Take everything we have done from assessment to prioritization. Key takeaways: 1. Clear integration strategy 2. Have a vision and plan to get the most value for the business
