AXIA's Value Integration Method™

We’ve developed a signature process, the Value Integration Method™, specifically designed to streamline organizational integration:

Strategic Alignment: There are several ways to execute post-merger IT integration projects. Each is based on the risks, capabilities and the strategic intent of the M&A activity and IT determines the right scope, approach and organizational structure.
Pre-Day 1 Activities: Before any merger, acquisition, divestment or joint-venture, having a structured, fast-paced, experienced organization execute the Pre-Day 1 activities will be critical for your organization’s success.
Stabilize & Retain: During the first 30 to 90 days after Day 1, most organizations will focus on value retention, stabilization and potentially a few low-hanging synergies.
Achieve Synergies: Once the organization has stabilized, IT is often called upon to help the business achieve the benefits that drove the M&A activity. Projects typically include cost reductions, achieving new synergies, new product & services, CRM integration, supply chain integration, procurement optimization, etc.
