• A well-defined IT M&A strategy contributes significantly to separating and integrating business operations. Our IT M&A expertise offers you a comprehensive approach to securing key phases of the transaction and guaranteeing the continuity of operations and the security of systems. We will assist you from the very first stages of the process, anticipating risks and identifying opportunities for technological synergies.

• The Xcelerated IT Strategies team will work in collaboration with your other M&A Advisory Experts to offer you a comprehensive, coherent approach.

• As part of IT due diligence, our independent and comprehensive review of the target’s technological assets will help identify risks and opportunities and ensure their correct valuation.

• As the deal moves forward and assets need to be carved out of the environment, our team will support you in defining what that carve-out strategy will be. This will help estimate separation costs, draft an IT TSA agreement, prepare for Day 1, and manage the overall implementation of the carve-out. These are highly complex activities that, if not handled properly, can negatively impact the deal.

• As part of the overall approach and management of the IT M&A deliverables, Xcelerated IT Strategies will help you manage the entire integration project, secure the transition, and implement a new IT operating model aligned with your company’s business strategy.

​

In Addition to the areas of IT and Technology Due Diligence, IT Carve-out, and Post-Merger Integration missions, we offer specialist expertise on cybersecurity, sustainable IT, and e-commerce strategies.

​

• For Cybersecurity, Xcelerated IT Strategies takes a comprehensive approach to assessing the exposure of your technology assets to cyberattacks. In due diligence phases, we drill down on cybersecurity, assessing cyber risks with a dedicated solution, financial impacts, and related insurance coverage. With the full view, we will work with you to develop a comprehensive plan to be sized to your company’s needs.

• When considering sustainable IT, we take a comprehensive approach to assessing the company’s maturity related to IT issues and practices. In the due diligence phases, we analyze the company’s ability to measure its information systems' environmental performance and implement relevant initiatives and industry best practices.

• As a final piece to the M&A journey, we carry out due diligence strategic assessments so that your company can measure and forecast the impact of e-commerce on its turnover and margins. If the sales channel has not yet been developed, our in-depth knowledge of available tools allows us to assess the investments the target company needs.
