In modern enterprises, technology integration and separation determine whether acquisitions and divestitures deliver their promised value--or quietly destroy it. IT M&A Strategy and Execution provides a practical, field-tested guide to managing technology through the complexity of acquisitions, divestitures, and carve-outs. Written by an experienced IT M&A practitioner, this book moves beyond theory to deliver a real-world framework for planning, governing, and executing technology transitions across the entire deal lifecycle. Rather than theory, this book focuses on real-world execution: governance models, separation strategies, integration decisions, and the operational discipline required under intense deal timelines. This work reflects the lessons learned from complex transactions involving global enterprises, multi-billion-dollar divestitures, and highly entangled technology environments. Designed for CIOs, IT leaders, corporate development teams, and advisors, this playbook distills lessons learned from complex global transactions into actionable guidance.
