IT M&A Advisory

Chemicals

A global chemical manufacturer and distributor

$21M saved in licensing across a 12-target M&A pipeline

An acquisitive Fortune 100 chemical group was closing three to four acquisitions a year across North America, APAC and EMEA, with no consistent way to assess technology risk before signing or to integrate it afterward.

We ran pre-deal IT assessments across a pipeline of twelve targets and led post-merger integration on four of them, standardizing diligence and integration so every deal followed the same disciplined playbook.

Results

Pre-assessed 12 acquisition targets across NAM, APAC and EMEA
Led post-merger IT integration on 4 deals
Saved $21M in licensing cost through consolidation
Optimized cost across overlapping technology stacks

Aviation

Two major US airlines in a proposed merger

IT diligence across both carriers ahead of the decision

A proposed combination of two major US carriers needed a clear-eyed read on the technology estate and integration risk before the deal could be judged with confidence.

We ran an IT pre-assessment of both carriers, surfacing systems overlap, integration cost and the risks that would shape the deal.

Results

IT due-diligence pre-assessment across both carriers
Systems overlap and integration cost quantified
Deal-shaping risks surfaced before the decision

Energy

Oil and gas operators in Houston

Diligence through integration, carried by one senior team

Energy operators pursuing consolidation needed technology diligence before signing and hands-on integration after close.

We delivered pre-deal IT assessments and ran post-merger integrations, carrying the same senior team from diligence into delivery.

Results

Pre-deal IT assessments across multiple transactions
Post-merger integrations delivered end to end
Continuity protected through each cutover

PMO Advisory

2 engagements

Chemicals

A global chemical manufacturer and distributor

Enterprise PMO and IT strategy for a global infrastructure org

A global IT infrastructure organization had no enterprise PMO, no consistent governance, and no shared roadmap across its run teams.

We built the PMO framework for the global infrastructure organization and partnered with the transformation office to stand up enterprise PMO governance, then set the IT roadmap, infrastructure strategy, lifecycle management and support strategy for the run teams. We also built an enterprise procurement process framework.

Results

Enterprise PMO framework and governance stood up with the transformation office
Enterprise procurement process framework built
IT roadmap, infrastructure strategy and lifecycle management defined for run teams

Aviation

Major US airlines

20% ($5M) program cost saved; 24% productivity gain

Large carriers were running multiple cross-functional enterprise programs with inconsistent governance, unclear KPIs and rising program cost.

We led PMO and program management across a portfolio of enterprise programs, reengineering plans, renegotiating vendors and bringing PMO and PMLC best practices to risk and resource management. We also moved delivery from waterfall to iterative scrum.

Results

Captured 20% ($5M) in program cost savings through plan reengineering and vendor negotiation
Increased productivity 24% by evolving the Agile delivery framework
Delivered 7 applications to 45,000 employees
Managed 100+ resources across major enterprise programs

Enterprise Transformation

1 engagement

Retail

A major North American retailer

$21M net revenue from a new retail-media business

A large retailer wanted to build a retail-media and digital monetization business on its own platforms, with the governance to scale it.

We led cross-functional teams to design, build and launch sponsored product ads across the retailer's digital platforms, and created the program structure, standards and governance to scale content creation and optimization.

Results

$21M net revenue from sponsored product ads in FY2022
Monetization program projected at 84% ($467M of $553M) of media-network earnings in a five-year high-growth scenario
$8.6M incremental demand and 482k new customer signups from a holiday feature set
Resolved a $43M multi-level inventory issue across 11 teams
Scaled engineering throughput 20% with a new program structure

Infrastructure

1 engagement

Telecommunications

Global corporations modernizing communications and infrastructure

Legacy telephony to Teams, plus large-scale cloud moves

Large enterprises needed to retire legacy telephony, migrate to the cloud and consolidate data centers without disrupting operations.

We led vendor management, program management and the migrations themselves, from legacy telephony to Microsoft Teams through to large-scale cloud and data-center moves.

Results

Legacy telephony migrated to Microsoft Teams for major global corporations
End-to-end program leadership for large-scale cloud migrations
Data-center migrations delivered with operational continuity

Why these results happen

The same approach behind every engagement

The outcomes above are not luck. They come from a way of working we apply on every engagement.

Senior practitioners do the work

The people who win the engagement deliver it. No bait-and-switch to a junior team once the pitch is over.

Vendor-neutral judgment

No product to sell and no partner quota to hit, so the recommendation is driven by your problem and nothing else.

We deliver, not just advise

We stay in the room through execution, so strategy turns into results instead of stalling at the slideware stage.

Fixed bid when you want certainty

We will take a fixed bid so the CFO can budget it, with incentives aligned to the outcome rather than billed hours.

Proprietary playbooks

Methodology and playbooks built from doing this repeatedly, so you get a faster ramp and fewer surprises.
