Midaxo: the better solution for Corp Dev
Home-Grown: Excel + Outlook + SharePoint
Chaos
Pros:
- Use familiar tools
- Local configurability
Cons:
- Chaos as processes, data and documents are all over the place
- Very painful end-to-end visibility
- Rely heavily on people to follow the processes and rules correctly, and to transition appropriately
- Difficult to learn from past efforts and incrementally improve
- Difficult to track long term synergy delivered vs initial promises
- Siloed risk & issue management
Ask Yourself:
- How long does it take you to have an accurate report on end-to-end M&A process – synergy, risks, status?
- How do you on-board a new deal lead when replacing someone that has left?
- Do you handle compliance requirements and retrieve history on a deal when required?
