Vericours was asked to help design and lead an aggressive integration program with the dual objectives of achieving significant cost reduction synergies quickly while also preserving maximum short- and long-term revenue potential. Sales and analyst resources were quickly consolidated into a single organization while maintaining both sets of products in the marketplace. Longer term product strategies and explicit migration plans and pricing guidelines were developed to enable the firm to move seamlessly to a fully-consolidated product line with several important new product introductions. Detailed migration plans were developed to integrate the IT platforms of the two firms into a best of breed production and delivery capability. Facilities and administrative activities were consolidated to yield significant cost reductions. Results over the first six months post-integration far exceeded both profit improvement and revenue targets. More importantly, the firm was solidly positioned to make strong gains in the marketplace over the ensuing two year period.
