Merger integration challenges are almost entirely related to failures in merger management, rather than to the underlying strategic rationale. Our corporate merger, division and acquisition service enables client organisations to successfully implement changes through comprehensive management support – either before the occurrence takes place or afterwards when the expected outcomes have not been fulfilled.
Key Activities
· Assessment of risks and cost-effectiveness before the final resolution is made
· Preparation of merger, division or acquisition plans and time schedule
· Legal procedures (communication with the Commercial Register, agreements, contracts with partners and the staff, etc.)
· Creation and implementation of the new management structure
· Linking of the different company cultures
· Clarification and implementation of new operational processes and reporting procedures
· Creation of new information flow scheme
· Informing the public and the clients of the impact of the changes (PR activities)
· Other activities
All the above-listed activities are included in the services provided by PWP, which allows the staff to concentrate on their primary responsibilities. A clear division of tasks and professional co-ordination of the processes are of utmost importance during periods of dramatic change.
