What does it take to separate a global industrial conglomerate into 3 independent companies?
A divestiture creates many complex activities that must be executed flawlessly to comply with regulatory requirements. We partnered with our long-time client to provide them with a framework enabling the successful technical and logical separation of all entities. By completing the infrastructure separation 3 months ahead of schedule, the company was able to realize significant cost savings by eliminating operational support that had previously been allocated for.
