Integration

Integration planning often focuses on what is actually the tip of the iceberg, but numerous threats to value creation lurk below the water line.

SERVICE

The focus of every acquisition should be on speed to integration, maximizing value, and mitigating risk to protect that value.

After all the attention and resources spent on due diligence and planning for Day One, it’s the longer-term, “death by a thousand cuts,” that can jeopardize the intent of an acquisition. This includes value erosion such as when critical staff or key suppliers are not retained, or when digital assets are not smartly integrated—among a multitude of other possible risks.

KPMG industry- and functional-specific teams know how to quickly accelerate integration, and, as importantly, are experienced at spotting and preventing the harder-to-see threats that can erode value over time.

Let our experience help you reap additional sources of value from your integration.
