EFESO Management Consultants was requested by a Private Equity fund to support the Post-Merger Integration of two of its portfolio companies in the pharmaceutical sector, with the objective of ensuring integration success, and delivering expected synergies within six months.
Our approach

- Aligning and improving key business processes
- Rolling-out a change management plan through a participative approach to align the team around the merger
- Setting-up a Project Management Office (PMO) in order to mitigate risk, size the effort and keep everyone focused on the major integration activities of the action plan and the defined momentum.
Results
