Five products.
Zero gaps.
Each product handles a distinct phase of the M&A lifecycle. Together, they form the only platform that covers discovery through optimization without compromise.
See everything. Miss nothing.
Discovery is the foundation of every successful M&A transaction. Before you can value a target, integrate a portfolio, or assess migration complexity, you need a complete picture of the IT estate. Discovery automatically scans across Azure, AWS, Active Directory, M365, VMware, network infrastructure, and security systems—124 purpose-built modules that extract, normalize, and correlate data from every IT dimension that matters in a deal. Without this visibility, deal teams fly blind and integration teams inherit surprises.
Discovery eliminates the information asymmetry that kills deals or Inflates integration costs. By providing a complete, normalized view of the target IT estate before close, deal teams can price accurately, integration leads can plan comprehensively, and risk teams can identify showstoppers early. No more buying surprises.
Key Capabilities
Multi-Cloud Scanning
Azure, AWS, and hybrid infrastructure scanned in parallel. Subscriptions, VMs, networking, storage, databases, serverless -- nothing is overlooked. Build a complete inventory before due diligence closes.
Identity & Access Intelligence
Active Directory, Entra ID, conditional access policies, PIM, managed identities. Map every identity, every permission, every risk. Identify overprivileged accounts and orphaned access before they become post-close liabilities.
M365 Deep Dive
Exchange, SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, Groups, Power Platform. License utilization, collaboration patterns, data distribution. Understand how the target collaborates and where critical business information lives.
Real-Time Dashboards
Live progress monitoring as modules execute. Category-level breakdowns, asset counters, completion tracking with AG Grid data tables. Give deal teams and integration leads instant visibility into scan status.
Coverage Areas
From plan to production in waves.
Migration execution is where M&A deals succeed or fail in practice. A flawed migration plan can destroy user productivity, corrupt data, and blow out integration timelines by months. Migration builds on Discovery intelligence to create wave-based plans with dependency tracking, Go/No-Go gate enforcement, resource scheduling, and real-time progress monitoring. Every workload type—users, mailboxes, SharePoint, Teams, devices, servers, applications—has specialized views that let migration leads execute with precision rather than guesswork.
Migration turns Discovery data into executed cutover. The M&A value is speed and certainty: migrate faster with fewer failures, less user impact, and lower risk of timeline slippage that delays synergy capture. Every day of delayed migration is a day of dual-operations cost.
Key Capabilities
Wave-Based Planning
Organize migrations into waves with dependency tracking. Visualize critical paths, identify blockers, manage parallel workstreams. Large-scale migrations are impossible to coordinate without this structure.
Go/No-Go Gates
Enforced quality gates at every migration phase. Pre-flight checks, validation criteria, rollback procedures -- all documented and tracked. Prevent bad migrations from progressing to production and causing business disruption.
Workload-Specific Views
Users, mailboxes, SharePoint, Teams, devices, servers, applications -- each workload type has purpose-built migration views and workflows. Tailored views mean migration teams work with tools designed for their specific task.
Resource Scheduling
Engineer booking, team allocation, capacity planning. Track who is doing what, when, and ensure no migration runs without proper resourcing. Prevent team burnout and resource conflicts across complex, concurrent migrations.
Coverage Areas
Control every transaction. Track every synergy.
M&A transactions are governed by complexity: multiple parties, tight timelines, regulatory requirements, and high stakes if things go wrong. Governance is a comprehensive control plane for acquisitions, divestitures, acqui-hires, and joint ventures—not a reporting afterthought but an enforcement mechanism that operationalizes compliance from Day 1. It tracks phase gates, manages clean team information barriers, monitors synergy realization, and maintains immutable audit trails for every decision and action.
Governance ensures the deal thesis becomes reality. Synergy tracking holds integration teams accountable, compliance walls prevent regulatory violations that can kill deals, and audit trails protect against post-close liability. Without Governance, M&A teams lose control of their own transactions.
Key Capabilities
Transaction Dashboard
Multi-transaction management supporting M&A, divestitures, acqui-hires, and joint ventures. Phase tracking, milestone management, stakeholder visibility. Manage multiple deals simultaneously without losing control.
Compliance Walls
Information barrier enforcement. Clean team management with role-based access. Prevent data leakage between deal teams and operating businesses. Meet regulatory requirements for competitive separation.
Synergy Realization
Track synergy targets from deal thesis to realization. Cost synergies, revenue synergies, operational efficiencies -- all measured against original projections. Hold teams accountable to the deal model.
Audit Trails
Every action logged, every decision traceable. Phase gate approvals, regulatory submissions, stakeholder sign-offs -- all with immutable audit records. Protect against post-close disputes and regulatory scrutiny.
Coverage Areas
Provision. Secure. Optimize. Automatically.
Post-acquisition, the race to consolidate and optimize begins—but traditional provisioning is slow, error-prone, and creates security gaps. Shift automates environment provisioning using discovery data as the source of truth: instead of manually designing infrastructure, Shift reads what was discovered and builds environments that match. Three sub-products work in sequence—Builder creates the environment, Guard applies security baselines, and Tune optimizes post-deployment. The result: from discovery to provisioned, secured, optimized environment in hours instead of weeks.
Shift compresses the time from close to optimized operations. Faster provisioning means faster migration completion, faster synergy capture, and faster exit from expensive dual-operations. Combined with Guard security enforcement, it reduces the post-close risk window significantly.
Key Capabilities
Shift Builder
Auto-designs AVD host pools, VM configurations, and infrastructure templates based on actual discovery data. What was found drives what gets built. Eliminate manual design work and configuration errors.
Shift Guard
Applies security baselines and compliance policies to provisioned environments. CIS benchmarks, organizational policies, regulatory requirements -- enforced automatically. No more post-deployment security gaps.
Shift Tune
Post-deployment optimization. Right-sizing, cost optimization, performance tuning based on actual usage patterns discovered during scanning. Stop overpaying for resources you do not need.
Data-Driven Design
Every provisioning decision is backed by real discovery data. No guesswork, no over-provisioning, no security gaps from manual configuration. Provision with confidence because the design reflects reality.
Coverage Areas
Your M&A intelligence co-pilot.
M&A projects generate enormous amounts of data and require coordination across dozens of stakeholders—yet teams still rely on fragmented tools, lost Slack messages, and tribal knowledge to navigate complexity. ARIA AI is an intelligence layer embedded throughout the ACQI platform that understands your project context, your discovery data, your migration plans, and your team structure. It provides contextual AI chat, intelligent task prioritization, team collaboration channels, and automated onboarding—acting as a always-available co-pilot that reduces the cognitive load on deal and integration teams.
ARIA AI reduces the coordination overhead that slows down M&A execution. Faster decisions, clearer accountability, and reduced onboarding time for new team members directly impact deal timeline and cost. In M&A, speed is currency—ARIA helps teams move faster.
