A merger creates one enterprise on paper. Integration has to create one in practice.
In most deals, value is still treated as something decided in the term sheet. In reality, it keeps getting redefined as financial intent runs into technical reality - ERP landscapes diverge, identity systems resist federation, and security exposure surfaces only under operational pressure. We work across the full transaction lifecycle, from pre-close assessment to post-merger stabilization, ensuring the deal model holds under real-world conditions.
What We Deliver
Bridging the technology estate from deal to integration
Diligence
Due Diligence & Integration Planning
Application, architecture and risk assessments
Infrastructure audit, capacity mapping and cost-benefit modeling
Day-one readiness, TSA design and integration playbooks
Target Operating Model (TOM) design and governance mapping
The organization needed to simultaneously integrate disparate tech assets - conflicting schemas, legacy codebases - across 20+ global acquisitions without threatening production stability. We deployed a plug-and-play configurable ingestion framework for dynamic schema adaptation, backed by automated bi-directional mirror validation and a secure API proxy layer standardizing cross-organization connectivity.
100% of 20+ acquisitions integrated on time and within budget
Zero production incidents upon promotion to live environment
99.99% data match against legacy mainframes across 6 subdomains
Originally delivered for a global financial services provider - the same pattern applies to any active acquirer integrating a high volume of simultaneous deals.
Printing & Media
Divestiture & ERP Separation Across 25 Countries
Following a corporate divestiture, the company had to host the divested entity in a single shared Oracle ERP environment across 25 countries while cleanly partitioning financial, tax, legal, and personnel records. We designed a multi-tenant data-separation architecture splitting ledgers, assets, and permissions, then executed a synchronized, phased cutover spanning 25 distinct time zones.
Completed global separation of financial and operational systems across 25 countries
Zero operational business disruption to either parent or divested entity
Cleanly partitioned workflows enabling independent legal and tax tracking
Originally delivered for a global printing and media corporation - the same pattern applies to any divestiture requiring clean multi-jurisdiction separation.
Financial Services
Security-First Infrastructure Migration
The firm needed to transition a 66-application employee and compliance estate to GCP over a tight 32-week program while enforcing federal data handling policies. We implemented version-controlled, peer-reviewed Terraform firewall rules, provisioned least-privilege IAM service accounts as code, and migrated enterprise credentials to GCP Secret Manager through multi-stage non-production testing before touching anything live.
Zero introduced vulnerabilities across all 66 tracks
Zero plaintext credential exposure at cutover
Fully attributable, JSON-structured audit logging from day one
Originally delivered for a global financial services provider - the same pattern applies to any regulated enterprise moving infrastructure control fully into code.
Private Equity
Technology Due Diligence for a $400M FinTech Acquisition
The firm needed to independently validate a prominent FinTech platform's self-proclaimed "cloud-native" architecture to accurately quantify technical debt and security risk before closing the transaction. We conducted a 3-week technical assessment spanning core architecture, code health, and engineering capacity, auditing security controls and API authentication layers to calculate future remediation costs.
Uncovered and quantified $8M in hidden technical debt, enabling a $15M price reduction
Isolated a critical API authentication vulnerability, made mandatory to remediate before close
Enabled accurate synergy budgeting, avoiding a post-close $3M financial surprise
Originally delivered for a private equity firm - the same pattern applies to any acquirer needing independent technical validation before signing.
