ABSORPTION CAPACITY ASSESSMENT
”Just how well prepared are you to do this deal?”
The Absorption Capacity Assessment (ACA) will compare your organizations capability, preparation and “bandwidth” to take on single or multiple M&A’s against the current best practices of leading companies and consultancies.
The internal survey will generate capacity indexes and reports rating your proficiency vs. the required and desired state.
The ACA is a service of M&A Partners that you can take advantage of quickly
SHADOW TEAMS
M&A Partners understands the critical need for merging companies to leverage their internal resources on the integration teams. You know your business. However, we know merger integration and will deploy a very select team of globally experienced business integration experts to come along side your integration teams. This low ratio of expertise working along side your people will allow the combination to leverage best practices for integrating the companies while also leveraging, acknowledging and rewarding the resident talent in the companies.
PLAYBOOK DESIGN AND ROLLOUT
Provides a holistic roadmap, an integrated process, and a disciplined structure as to what gets done, by whom, when and how during the M&A integration process
Ensures there is a repeatable process for enterprise-wide consistency and best practices in every M&A, regardless of the business unit involved and the experience levels of the group
Allows the Operations group to focus on their business and functional expertise instead of becoming M&A integration experts
Provides “just-in-time” proven tools, methodologies, best practices, forms and checklists developed over 20 years and 100+ M&A integration projects (coupled with extensive research and studies) so the focus can be on doing versus “reinventing the wheel”

CULTURE FIT ASSESSMENT
IF 83% of M&A transactions fail to achieve announced expectations and 50% don’t even earn the cost of capital. and, most failed mergers cite CULTURE as the reason……….then, why do 94% of acquirers continue to make acquisitionswhere they have performed little of no meaningful cultural due diligence?
Today we can provide the high-quality information that you need, using our proprietary Culture Fit Analysis. Forget about comparing two companies at the enterprise level. Company-to-Company culture assessments are meaningless in M&A. Cultures don’t need to match, but they must mesh. This requires the ability to compare the organizations where the work is done. Our quick assessment will tell you what you need to know about:
