In this episode, Domenic and Jeff Alvis discuss: 

  • What The Keystone Group is and how they can help during the M&A process. 
  • How diligence and planning are the same aspect of the process. 
  • Culture assessment and gap analysis. 
  • Having plans and resources in place from the beginning of the acquisition process. Key Takeaways: 
  • The time to think about integration is the day you start to think about doing an acquisition.  
  • Do you have the people and the resources to actually execute integration? Do you have the expertise? 
  • Integration needs to be done seamlessly, as quickly as possible, so that you don’t lose momentum on either side. 
  • Communication, both internal and external, is key – have a plan, do it as quickly as possible and as frequently as you can. "You need to think about integration from the get-go." —  Jeff Alvis
