Capabilities
The first hundred days decide whether a deal delivers. We plan and run post acquisition integration, separation and carve outs so the value you paid for actually lands.
PEF Consulting Partners is a senior led consultancy that helps private equity firms and corporates deliver the hard part of a deal: what happens after completion. Our leadership has delivered M&A integration and separation at serious scale, including interim M&A leadership through an SAP and SaaS transaction at Smart Choice Metering and the programme direction of the largest separation in National Grid history, the creation of NESO.
Most deals do not fail on price. They fail in the months after signing, when integration drifts, systems and data stay tangled, synergies stay on the slide and the management team is consumed by the day job. A post acquisition consultant exists to stop that quietly happening to you.
A realistic integration or separation plan with named owners, honest dependencies and the few things that actually protect deal value.
Disentangling systems, data, contracts and people cleanly, with transitional arrangements that end on schedule rather than lingering.
ERP, billing and platform decisions after a deal: consolidate, migrate or run apart, made with delivery reality rather than optimism.
Turning the investment case into a delivery plan, then running it with the honesty and pace a hold period demands.
The cheapest time to protect deal value is before the first hundred days start slipping. A short, confidential conversation costs nothing.
