Post-merger integration
Post-merger integration consulting for PE add-on acquisitions
The hundred days after close decide whether an add-on works. I plan and run the commercial and systems side of the integration, revenue, customer data, CRM and web, so two companies become one without the leads and the reporting breaking on the way.
- 500+ companies advised since 2010
- 40+ acquisitions as an operator
- 6 companies founded, 2 exited
Who this is for
A buy-and-build platform adding companies
Each add-on arrives with its own CRM, website, phone numbers and reporting.
A sponsor backing the deal
You need the synergies in the model to show up in the numbers, on time.
A carve-out standing up on its own
Getting off the parent’s systems on schedule, with the transition services agreement as the clock.
What the integration covers
The first 100 days plan
What moves on day one, in month one and by day one hundred, with an owner for each.
Revenue and customer data
Customers, pipeline and contracts merged without losing history or attribution.
CRM, martech and web consolidation
One CRM, one stack and one web platform, with the duplicate spend cut.
Brands, domains and listings
Each acquired brand folded in with its search traffic, numbers and listings carried over.
Integration reporting
A weekly view for the sponsor of what moved, what slipped and what it costs.
How it works
Before close
Integration questions answered in diligence, so the plan starts on day one.
The first 100 days
I run the plan with the management team; DevriX executes the systems work.
The next add-on
A repeatable playbook, so each acquisition is faster and cheaper than the last.
What integration work can you execute, not just plan?
DevriX executes the systems work during the first 100 days: CRM data migration, website and martech consolidation, domain and listing cutover, and integration reporting. We have moved over 230,000 articles with zero downtime, migrated 50+ forms across 500+ pages in minutes, and consolidated subsites after an acquisition. The work is priced per add-on and scoped on a 20-minute call once the target is known, so you hire post-merger integration experts who run the plan, not consultants who hand you a deck.

Questions
When should integration planning start?
Before close. The questions that decide integration cost belong in diligence, so the plan is ready on day one.
Do you replace the management team’s integration lead?
No. I work alongside them and own the commercial and systems workstream, with DevriX executing the work.
What does a typical add-on integration involve?
Moving the add-on’s website, CRM, data, numbers and listings onto the platform and tracking leads through the cutover.
How is it priced?
Per add-on, scoped on a 20-minute call once the target is known.
Scope one add-on’s integration
A 20-minute call: what the company runs today, what the plan needs, and whether I am the right fit.
