"M&A Lessons Learned"
By Andy Sealock & Marc Tanowitz
Pace Harmon Principals Andy Sealock and Marc Tanowitz provide insights and outline four steps that supply chain organizations can utilize to best realize synergy savings in a merger and acquisition environment. "Embarking on a merger or acquisition without a strategy or, better yet, a formal program to realize the potential synergies as effectively and efficiently as possible can ultimately lead to failure. Because the synergies are crucial to the future viability of the combined company, the respective SCM organizations should have a leading role in identifying the synergy savings required for the merger or acquisition to succeed."
Pace Harmon’s insights regarding technology trends, complex transactions, and supplier management issues are frequently quoted in leading industry journals.
