Can IT Make or Break a Corporate Acquisition?
Cutter Consortium, Oct 2008, Pages: 33
Examine various perspectives on the challenges IT executives face when their firm seeks to acquire or merge with another company. Both in the due diligence phase and during integration of acquired IT departments, there are distinct procedural steps that can lead to a successful acquisition or a disastrous implementation of the target company’s IT operation.
In this edition of CITJ, our contributing authors have done an excellent job of presenting arguments for and examples of these three scenarios. They describe many of the challenges IT executives face in getting a seat at the M&A table, along with the consequences encountered when IT is not involved in M&A considerations from the beginning. They also offer practical suggestions on procedures and frameworks that, in their collective experience, have helped to achieve successful acquisition results and to improve IT's contribution to business value.
