CORPORATE M&A INTEGRATION

ACCELERATED TRANSITIONS. SUSTAINED SUCCESS.

When corporations acquire other companies, the real challenge begins after the deal is signed. PCG brings over 25 years of experience helping Fortune 1000 and mid-market companies navigate complex mergers and acquisitions (M&A) integrations, with a focus on long-term success rather than just short-term gains.

We don’t just consult—we educate, embed, and execute. When your teams have day jobs, our senior consultants bring the corporate M&A expertise you need to drive outcomes. They become an extension of your team, filling gaps and providing the playbooks, resources, and leadership to guide you through the entire integration process. Whether you need to align systems, people, or processes, PCG can help you achieve your goals.

BIG IDEA: INTEGRATION = STRATEGY + EXECUTION x CAPABILITY

Done right, M&A integration drives new value for companies. Done exceptionally, M&A integration spurs continued growth and sustainable prosperity. Our consultants bring decades of M&A experience, but we don’t just implement; we build integration capability by creating a tailored playbook and teaching your team how to do it themselves.

We embed our team within your company to create and execute a custom integration roadmap, working side by side with your staff to ensure seamless knowledge transfer, cross-functional alignment, and lasting organizational transformation. You’ll never feel like you hired a giant firm to dictate what to do. With PCG, you’ll feel like our consultants are part of your team—because they are.
