Mergers, Acquisitions and Divestitures

Why Core SAP Expertise

Concept #1

Companies make merger, acquisition, and restructuring decisions for a variety of business and strategic reasons, but unfortunately the impact on the supporting IT landscapes is often an afterthought.

A merger or acquisition means that ERP and other different IT systems need to be consolidated, harmonized, or replaced in order to realize the strategic objectives of the new organization.

Conversely, a divestiture typically leads to a carve-out of portions of a system landscape. This includes the complex process of determining which data sets go with the divested business and which remain. It also entails realigning the remaining part of the system landscape.

Internal organizational changes, such as consolidating business units, creating a global shared services organization, and numerous other initiatives require commensurate realignments and transformations of the underlying systems and infrastructure components.
