Over the past decade, some trends in Mergers and Acquisitions have emerged. The deal market is now extremely competitive - there is more money chasing fewer deals. And many deals fail to meet their strategic goals due to poor planning and post-deal integration.
PwC’s Transition and Integration team specialises in managing all types of buy/sell side deals, with ‘hands on’ experience and strong industry knowledge.
How PwC can help you
We help clients understand the key deal drivers, both before and after the transaction. By identifying and managing opportunities and risks associated with the deal integration, we enable clients to concentrate on running their core business.
Pre-deal work includes reviewing operational processes to identify opportunities and risks, investigating potential synergies/cost reduction opportunities, and managing carve-out issues associated with separating businesses.
Post-deal work involves helping the buyer take control (including addressing any day-one urgent actions). We establish an integrated implementation plan, covering the specific tasks that need to be completed within the first 100 days, including:
- Developing key performance indicators/management reporting
- Constructing communication plans
- Implementing program management
- Realising synergies and operational improvement
- Addressing change management issues
Your organisation will benefit from our services if you:
- Want to validate operational opportunities at the time of due diligence
- Want to take control of the business and minimise risks
- Want to realise the benefits from the acquisition
- Do not have the time, experience or resources to integrate businesses
