Our focus is on delivering value and results for our clients, and we believe that successful execution is the foundation for achieving those results.

Challenges

Lack of inhouse integration capability and resources

Client did not have the experience and capability in-house to plan and manage the upcoming integration/merger due to its size and complexity.

We solved this for our client

Global PMI Partners assigned an Integration Director who advised and worked with management in defining the integration strategy, driving the value creation and an optimal and cost-effective approach. This also included an Integration Manager to set up and drive an Integration Management Office (IMO) for the workstreams of the integration project.

Need of hands-on resources for initial add-ons and a playbook

A private equity client invested in a new roll-up platform and needs in-house capabilities to integrate a number of add-on acquisitions each year, through cost-effective means in accordance with the investment thesis.

We solved this for our client

Global PMI Partners assigned a small team of roll-up specialist consultants that executed and delivered the first add-on acquisition, then conducted knowledge transfer of the customized integration playbook and communications playbook to the platform management team to manage going forward.

Lack of inhouse carve-out capability and resources

A buy-side client is planning a carve-out but does not have the capability or experience in-house to plan, define, and negotiate transitional services agreements (TSAs), in order to manage the integration.

We solved this for our client

Global PMI Partners assigned a small team of carve-out specialists that organized a Carve-out Management Office (CMO) that conducted the end to end plan of the buy-side carve-out that included, data migration, Day One readiness and integration, communication, and negotiated transitional services plans on behalf of the client.
