Post-Merger Integration

Turning transactions into transformations

Completing a deal is only the beginning. Real value comes from how well two organisations integrate. At CJPI, we help leadership teams navigate the complexities of post-merger integration, ensuring that synergies are captured, cultures aligned and operations stabilised.

PMI is the Key to Success

Many deals underperform not because of poor strategy, but because of weak integration. Misaligned cultures, unclear accountabilities, and missed synergy opportunities can quickly erode value. Without a structured PMI plan, leadership teams risk disruption, talent loss and slower returns on investment.

We work alongside executive teams and investors to design and execute integration programmes tailored to each deal. We focus on both the operational and human aspects of integration, aligning people, processes, systems and culture to the new organisation’s strategic goals.

PMI

Post-Merger Integration

At CJPI, we approach Post-Merger Integration (PMI) as a leadership challenge. We embed early to align stakeholders on a clear integration strategy, define accountability, and build a plan grounded in commercial reality. We focus on the big levers: cultural alignment, operating model clarity, leadership, and quantifiable synergy capture.

Integration strategy & governance
Designing how decisions will be made, by whom, and with what metrics. Early alignment is critical.
Day 1 & 100-day planning
We develop focused, realistic integration plans that prioritise critical value levers and manage cultural alignment.
Organisation & leadership integration
Whether it’s identifying key leaders, resolving role duplication, or aligning incentives, we help retain talent and rebuild clarity.
Synergy capture & tracking
Clear visibility on where the value lies (cost, revenue, operations) and how it’s tracked. No hand-waving, just measurable progress.
Change & communication planning
From boardrooms to frontline teams, we ensure messaging is intentional, sequenced, and aligned to outcomes.
