Mergers & Acquisitions
Our experience across security and compliance-focused industry verticals provides the expertise you need for a successful M&A transaction.
Avoid Security & Technology Risks and Ensure a Successful M&A Transaction
Security, technology, and business operations are significant factors in a successful merger, divestiture, or acquisition. It is crucial to choose an enterprise advisory and technology partner who understands the risks and knows how to transform the critical elements of IT with speed and precision to turn your deal into a competitive advantage while reducing risk.
Simplify Merger & Acquisition IT Integration
Since many organizations' leaders do not know where to begin with a division or merger of another business' digital assets, applications, users, and other IT and security tools and processes—highly-skilled partners are vital to the successful execution required for the completion of assessments and recommendations on where to begin. Our teams understand the technical complexity of mergers and acquisitions and work with you to ensure a smooth transition.

Your Merger & Acquisition Roadmap
The Coretek consulting team works with client business leaders to determine the scope and timeline and any operational objectives that need to be considered for the project plan and success criteria. While the client clarifies the initial plan, the Coretek consulting teams execute the detailed assessments required to refine the plan, milestones, dependencies, and operational tasks. Once the plan is refined and accepted and the customer and Coretek form a joint operational team, the project's transition phase is initiated.
M&A Transition
Once the plan and the required assessments are complete, the teams execute the preparatory steps to set the stage for the phased migration. This phase is a multiphase process that involves the secure migration of digital assets from one organization to another. During this process, the Coretek team provides additional support and technical resources to the customer to address gaps while they undergo the orchestrated and potentially complex changes. At the end of each phase of the migration, the team collaborates and adjusts the plan based upon the customer's needs moving forward.
Long-Term Management & Support
For many organizations, merging another organization's users, systems, or digital landscape can be complex and long-term support is usually required. For these companies, Coretek offers complete management of IT and security systems after the migration to ease the burden on the customer and allow them to on the success and business value of the acquisition, not the management of more IT or security.
