The challenge
A buyer carved a $300M manufacturing and distribution division out of a $6B parent. The division had a 12-month transition services agreement (TSA) at about $500K a month, so every month on the parent’s systems was expensive. It needed to stand up as its own business, fast.
Our approach
We ran a rapid IT assessment to right-size the infrastructure and ERP for the new company, with the ERP aligned to the investment thesis. We then designed and put in its own network, servers, storage, desktops, phone system and help desk.
The outcome
The new infrastructure and ERP were complete in five months. The division left the TSA seven months early and never paid $3.5M in TSA fees.
Results
