MANAGING DEAL FLOW
UPSTREAM & DOWNSTREAM INTEGRATION
Leading companies tightly integrate their upstream and downstream M&A processes by merging the approach and execution to minimize 3 fundamental risks:
APPROACH RISK
Resources only focused on the transaction and not integration
HANDOFF RISK
Resources dedicated only to integration that are not added to the team early enough to sufficiently prepare
EXECUTION RISK
Resources most knowledgeable with the transaction do not remain on the team through the integration phase
