Post-Merger Integration

Challenges

• Europe-wide market clearing process due to continuously increasing regulatory requirements (e.g. AIFMD/ KAGB) and increasing competition and cost pressure
• Consolidation tendencies/increased M&A- Activity
• Real estate companies are very heterogeneous:
  • Strategy (investors, real estate markets, value creation depths etc.)
  • Organisation and processes (manager to employee ratio, IT implementation etc.)
  • Employees (qualifications, salary structures etc.)
  • Cultural differences
• Challenges of a post-merger integration (pmi) are partially underestimated (esp. complexity and change requirement)

Project approach

• Stringent planning of a structured PMI-process (topics, resources, effort etc.)
• Strategic and organisational analysis
• Conception of NewCo (structure organisation, core processes and IT System)
• Timely implementation of integration and implementation of a stringent project management
• Ongoing control and steering of integration process
• Development of a communication concept and focussed involvement of senior management and employees in the change process

Results

• Target structure and process map of new organisation
• Resource dimensioning
• Chance for concurrent development of the new company up to „best practice“
• TME provides experience and expertise (methods, business know-how and change management) to implement a post-merger integration successfully
