      How we can help

      M&A Capability

      To achieve strong growth through M&A it's imperative to develop a repeatable model based on four key disciplines. Success rates double when you master these critical capabilities.

      • Our Team

      Our global team of M&A advisory experts has helped companies across industries and geographies develop a disciplined, repeatable model that addresses four critical capabilities: target selection, investment thesis, value creation, and risk mitigation.

      Whether a given deal is intended to expand scale, acquire new capabilities, pursue promising adjacencies, or facilitate a transformation, we'll help you build a team that can maximize the opportunities—and avoid the pitfalls.

      Our experience and expertise in M&A strategy, due diligence, post-merger integration, and related disciplines enables us to bring a big-picture view to capability-building, ensuring that your team and your entire organization master every facet of M&A.

      AI in M&A Capability

      AI is reshaping each stage of the M&A cycle—sharpening diligence, accelerating mobilization and execution, and improving value realization. Frequent acquirers are often early AI adopters, using the technology to strengthen their M&A capability and widen the performance gap between themselves and those falling behind. Companies are using AI in M&A to:

      • Increase the quality of sector scans and the volume of long-list targets reviewed
      • Improve outside-in diligence and accelerate standard diligence activities
      • Identify more detailed cost and revenue synergy opportunities earlier and with higher confidence
      • Build deal-specific integration/divestiture plans to rapidly and strategically mobilize execution teams
      • Enable faster synergy realization

      See how companies are harnessing deal value with AI

      Real Outcomes

      From retailers and banks to IT and marketing teams, we’ve worked across industries and functions to uncover high-impact AI use cases aligned to each company’s strategic goals.

      How We Help

      We work with companies to leverage AI for smarter bidding decisions and to know when to walk away. Beyond accelerating sourcing, screening, and diligence, we also collaborate with dealmakers to develop AI use cases for integration, divestiture planning, and program management.
