"You've got to understand the reasons and value drivers, right?"
"If nobody articulates the goals and actually says: 'This is why we did it, and this is what we're hoping to do over the next three to five years,' then you don't know."
"You need to have the resources in place to actually execute the plan,"
"It's not just about building a plan and then hoping that things will come together - you need to ensure you have the operational capacity and ability to follow through"
Long-term post-merger success requires revisiting the original deal rationale and clarifying measurable success criteria for the next three to five years. Legal departments should translate those goals into a practical plan, including a comprehensive checklist and processes to drive integration outcomes. Departments must secure resources and operational capacity to execute the plan rather than relying on hope. Entity-governance mapping and a clear inventory of entities help manage legal and compliance obligations across the combined organization. Active legal involvement in planning, resource allocation, and governance mapping supports sustained value realization from the transaction.
