Private equity and M&A
Plan IT integration around the deal
Make identity, Microsoft 365 and security dependencies visible before they disrupt a transaction. Simplicity IT helps define an integration or carve-out scope and the evidence needed to proceed.
Where we can help
IT integration and separation
Assess tenant, identity, application and device dependencies. Define migration sequencing, transition-service requirements and rollback responsibilities.
Identity and security
Review privileged access, cross-company collaboration and security coverage before combining or separating environments.
Infrastructure decisions
Compare the current estate and Azure options using workload requirements, operating costs and migration dependencies.
AI workflow readiness
Select a portfolio-company workflow, establish its baseline and evaluate data access and human review before funding a pilot.
Keep the investment case measurable
Agree the baseline, success measures and accountable owner for each workstream. Delivery timing and operational continuity depend on the estate, customer access, third-party dependencies and the approved transition plan. A fixed ROI or a disruption-free cutover cannot be assumed in advance.
Preserve each legal entity’s permissions and data boundaries until authorized changes are agreed. The migration plan should state what must work on Day 1 and what can move later.
