About Us
Achieve Successful Acquisition Outcomes
We’re on a mission to take post-merger integration to the next level. Our specialized post-merger integration consulting services are tailored to help bring companies together quickly, cost-effectively and ensure that synergies are realized.
We leverage a proven 5-Step Post-Merger Integration Process we call Unify™ that has been fine-tuned through our extensive operating experience, collaborations with Private Equity-backed firms, and hands-on involvement with corporate acquisitions.
Our Acquisition Integration Specialists are senior-level leaders who bring an operator mindset and know how to run a business and get things done collaboratively. They bring seasoned experience facilitating complex M&A integrations on the corporate and consulting side, including work at Fortune 500 and PE-backed growth companies across most industry sectors.

Why Hire a Post-Merger
Integration Consultant?
M&A is complex and often falls short of expectations.
While a strong deal thesis and fair purchase price are essential, most experts agree that deal success ultimately hinges on effective post-merger integration.
-
Get that wrong, and even the strongest deal can unravel.
-
Get it right, and you unlock the full potential of the merger.

Our Commitment to Clients
Founder’s Message
Over the past year, we have had the privilege to engage with our Private Equity (PE) clients and industry colleagues, gain insights into the state of the M&A market, and identify what will be crucial for clients in the coming years.
After a challenging past 18 months, PE expects transaction volume to bounce-back in 2024, supported by an increase in deal pipeline and nearly $4T in dry powder.
Three key points caught our attention:
-
PE firms are increasingly looking to outsource post-merger integration as their portfolio companies often lack the expertise to effectively integrate and operationalize acquisitions, particularly those involving strategic transformations.
-
PE firms that outsource integration are shifting focus away from general consulting firms towards specialists in acquisition integration who can also bring senior-level general management experience on the corporate-side and an "operator mentality."
-
PE firms want outsourcing partners who can oversee and facilitate all aspects of post-merger integration, in collaboration with the merging companies, so that leaders can concentrate on running their business without diverting too much time on integration.
Empowered with this knowledge, we have invested considerable time and resources to strengthen our capabilities to serve the needs of Private Equity and ensure successful acquisition outcomes.
Whether you are visiting our website for the first time or have collaborated with us in the past, we thank you for your interest and continued support.
With Gratitude,
Jeff Mandell
