M&A
Full-cycle deal execution, from signing through stabilization.
M&A work at Krewe is the execution side of a transaction — not sourcing deals or providing valuation opinions, but managing what happens after the deal is agreed: sign-to-close coordination, integration or separation management, Day 1 readiness, hypercare, and TSA design and exit. Project-based, tied to a specific transaction event.
What this covers
The workstreams Krewe leads inside a transaction.
Integration Management (IMO) / Separation Management (SMO)
Lead the integration management office — or separation management office — from Day 1 planning through workstream execution, governance cadence, and synergy or separation tracking. Krewe has led IMO work on multi-billion-dollar acquisitions and SMO execution for multinational divestitures.
Learn moreSign-to-Close & Day 1 Readiness
Manage the operational workstreams between signing and closing — workstream tracking, dependency resolution, regulatory sequencing — so the business is ready to operate from the moment the deal closes.
Learn moreHypercare
Intensive post-close support through the period of highest integration risk, before BAU operations are fully stabilized. Covers escalation management, issue triage, and continuity monitoring across the most vulnerable workstreams.
Learn moreTSA Design & Exit
Negotiate, design, and manage the exit from transition service agreements — including dependency mapping, stranded cost planning, and carve-out readiness across shared infrastructure.

The Institutional Readiness Assessment
Before Krewe would support a live transaction, we want to know exactly what a buyer or investor would find — and close any gaps before they become deal issues. The IRA is the structured diagnostic that ensures the transaction work that follows is grounded in the actual state of the business, not assumptions.
