Supporting technical capability
Check both IT environments before a merger or acquisition.
Review accounts, security controls, data and ownership across both organizations. You receive the findings, open questions and priorities needed to decide whether integration should proceed or wait.
Engagement context
Where this capability applies.
- A merger, acquisition, divestiture, or tenant consolidation has a deadline.
- You are about to connect two environments before anyone has reviewed the risk.
- Leadership needs a go or no-go they can defend, not a gut call.
The agreed outputs
What the engagement provides.
M&A Technology Readiness Pack
A red, amber, green scorecard across identity, security, data, cloud governance, and licensing.
Integration plan
The sequence and dependencies to consolidate safely, before any link is established.
Risk register
The blockers that must be cleared first, each with an owner and a recommendation.
