System Integration_1085x760

Sync financials, systems, and operations quickly and effectively post-acquisition.

 

You closed the deal. Now the real work begins. Different chart of accounts. Incompatible systems. Inconsistent processes. No consolidated view of performance. Most M&A integrations take 6-12 months and distract leadership from running the business. We complete financial and operational integration in 8-12 weeks — standardizing accounting, unifying systems, and delivering consolidated reporting so you can capture synergies faster.

Common Pain Points:

  • Each acquisition multiplies stress instead of achieving scale
  • No standardized playbook for integration
  • Need to maintain operations while implementing new systems. Finance team can't keep up on its own. 
  • Systems sprawl is out of control (5 acquisitions = 5 different ERPs)
  • Operational synergies aren't materializing because you can't measure them

FAQs

When should we engage you—before or after closing the acquisition?

Before is ideal (during due diligence or between LOI and close). We can plan integration, map systems, and be ready to execute on Day 1. But we can also start post-close if needed.

Will you integrate our systems or do outsource to consultants separately?

We do the full implementation — ERP setup, data migration, integration with other systems. We're not just advisors who hand off to implementers. And we can stay on (fractional CFOs, controllers, data + systems experts) for as long as you need us for support. 

Can you help with operational integration beyond finance?

Accounting, finance, and technology integration are our specialties. We also have strategic partners who provide fractional operations support and other services to help solve acquisition challenges. 

What if we're planning multiple acquisitions?

Perfect fit. After integrating your first acquisition, we build a standardized playbook so each subsequent integration is faster and cheaper. Many clients train their teams to execute the playbook with our support.

Do we have to migrate to a new ERP?

Not necessarily. If your existing ERP can handle multi-entity, we may work within it. If it can't scale, we'll recommend a migration. We're ERP-agnostic and recommend based on your needs.

How disruptive is integration to the acquired company's operations?

We design integrations to minimize disruption. Most day-to-day operations continue normally. The finance team experiences the most change, but we provide training and support throughout.

What if the acquisition is in a different country?

We have experience with multi-currency, multi-GAAP integrations. Additional complexity (exchange rates, statutory reporting requirements) adds time, but we excel at these kinds of challenges. 

Can you help with carve-outs (selling an entity)?

Yes. Carve-outs require separating entity data and systems from the parent—essentially reverse integration. We've supported several carve-outs successfully.
