Post-merger
integration

 

Using Reconfig for post-merger integration means to embrace data driven change management. We provide comprehensive and detailed insights into how the operating models of the merging organizations while saving cost, time and frustration compared to traditional methods.

Using data provided by the employees of both organizations, Reconfig provides a fact based impact assessment for any suggested changes based on the voice of the employees. Relying on the voice of the employees will increase transparency in the integration process and reduces resistance to change. By providing every employee a chance to be heard as well as using their input to present why changes are made you can make a highly uncertain process a bit more predictable.

The data model of the organizations operating model provided by Reconfig will provide insights into how to realize the intended synergies that are the reasons for the merger in the first place. Using these data based operating models you can align each organization with the intended strategy, ensuring the resulting organization is designed to deliver as intended. Eliminating duplication of work, integrating core functions of each organization and aligning the organization structure with the post-merger strategy are all core functions of using Reconfig for Post-Merger Integration.

Customer success story

 

US renewable energy producer

To realize the value of a newly acquired business, a Renewable Energy Company had to streamline its US and Canada post-merger organization. For this task, they enlisted the help of Leading North Advisors (LNA). Using the Reconfig platform, LNA conducted a survey among 260 employees of the post-merger organization across the United States and Canada. The platform created an in-depth visualization of the current work processes and interdependencies and revealed areas of potential duplication and processes with the most coordination load. The Reconfig design module suggested an alternative organizational structure that reduced complexity and optimized the performance of the organization. The new organizational structure enabled the company to improve efficiency by 25%.
