Post-Merger Integration (PMI)

Integration planning and execution to realise deal value after close.

Post-Merger Integration (PMI)
Overview

Post-merger integration (PMI) is the planning and execution that brings two organisations together after a deal closes, to realise the intended synergies. Matchpoint supports integration planning and execution so the value in the deal is actually captured.

As part of our M&A practice, Matchpoint Partners has originated and led $2+ billion of transactions across four continents, and every M&A mandate is led by a partner, from first call to close.

Post-merger integration (PMI) is the planning and execution that brings two organisations together after close so the intended synergies are actually captured. Most mergers underperform because integration is assumed rather than managed. Matchpoint Partners supports day-one readiness, the 100-day plan, operating-model and team integration, and synergy tracking.

Post-Merger Integration (PMI) — frequently asked questions

Most often due to weak integration — synergies are assumed but not captured. A disciplined PMI plan is essential.

Before close — so day-one readiness and the 100-day plan are ready to execute immediately.

PMI consultants take over once a deal closes and turn the acquisition into realised value: 100-day and full integration planning; synergy identification, capture and tracking; operating-model, systems and process integration; organisation design and talent retention; and risk, culture and change management. Matchpoint plans and drives post-merger integration alongside its M&A advisory, so the same team that quantified the synergies at deal stage delivers them after close.

Before completion, not after — the strongest outcomes come from integration planning that runs in parallel with due diligence, so a 100-day plan, synergy targets and retention measures are ready the day the deal closes.

M&A advisers cover the full transaction: strategy and target screening, valuation, running the sell-side or buy-side process, due-diligence coordination, deal structuring and negotiation, and financing the acquisition. Post-merger-integration (PMI) consultants take over after close — 100-day integration planning, synergy capture and tracking, operating-model and systems integration, and talent retention. Matchpoint provides both ends: origination-to-close M&A advisory and the PMI planning that protects the value you paid for.

M&A advisory is senior-led guidance and execution across a merger, acquisition or divestment — from strategy, valuation and target or buyer identification through diligence, structuring, negotiation and completion. Matchpoint runs full sell-side and buy-side mandates, confidentially and partner-led from origination to close.

Yes — Matchpoint is UAE-licensed with partners in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, advising GCC business owners, corporates and investors on sell-side, buy-side and merger mandates, with cross-border reach into KSA, India, the UK and the US.

Matchpoint runs full sell-side mandates: we value the business, build the information memorandum, identify and approach buyers, manage diligence and negotiate to close — confidentially and senior-led throughout.

An MBO is led by existing management, an MBI by an incoming external team, and an LBO uses significant debt to fund the acquisition. We structure all three and arrange the acquisition finance.

We bridge a target's stand-alone enterprise value to the consideration paid, isolating hard, soft and financial synergies net of costs — so clients see exactly where value is created.

Matchpoint works primarily on a success fee, with a modest retainer to cover execution. Fees are agreed in writing up front and scaled to the size and complexity of the transaction — with no hidden costs.

Most sell-side and buy-side M&A processes run 4–9 months from mandate to completion, depending on diligence, regulatory approvals and negotiation.

A short, confidential scoping call and NDA; we structure the requirement and prepare materials, then run a competitive process across our 5,000+ investor and lender relationships, and negotiate to close — with a partner leading at every step.

Matchpoint Partners is based in the UAE and runs cross-border mandates across the UAE, KSA, India and the UK, with active deal activity in wider Europe, Singapore and the United States.

Matchpoint has originated and led $2+ billion of transactions, with equity tickets typically USD 5m–300m, debt USD 10m–500m+, real estate finance USD 20m–500m+, and fund placements for funds of USD 50m–1bn+.
