Why It Pays for Itself

The real cost is not having it

Most teams do not decide to skip integration planning. They simply start from a blank page, late, and under pressure. That is where the cost sits.

Build it yourself

More than 60 documents, from diligence checklists to the Day 1 hourly schedule. Even at two hours each, that is well over 120 hours of senior time before the first deal benefits.

Hire it out

Experienced integration advisors typically bill by the hour or day. Commissioning a comparable set of documents from scratch costs many times the price of the toolkit, and takes weeks.

Go without

A missed Day 1 item, such as banking access, payroll or a customer letter, costs far more than a template. The expensive failures are the ones nobody planned for.

Time estimates are illustrative and vary by team and deal.

What You Are Really Buying

Years of lessons, already structured

The toolkit is built from real work across 25+ acquisitions. Every checklist item exists because something went wrong, or nearly did, on a live deal. You start with a tested structure and adapt it, instead of discovering the gaps one deal at a time.

Speed

Start planning the day you decide to move, not weeks later.

Completeness

Fewer surprises on Day 1, because the checklists cover what teams usually forget.

Consistency

One structure for every deal, so results can be compared and improved.

Both Tracks

Transaction and Integration work planned together, from the first phase.

Who It Is For

Built for teams running real deals

Corporate Development

A consistent structure for evaluating and handing off every deal.

Private Equity

A portfolio-wide integration standard for operating partners.

Integration Leads

A running start for the Integration Management Office, instead of a blank page.

Functional Leaders

Checklists for finance, IT, people, legal and operations.
