Solutions · Post-acquisition Platform Consolidation

After the deal, one platform not five.

An acquisition leaves several digital platforms that were never designed to work together. TBSCG maps, consolidates and migrates them while each business continues operating.

The Scion offer

Rationalize, migrate, unify.

Scion maps the acquired portfolio first. Aerial then carries the migration into the Banyan Method: old and new run together until the replacement is load-bearing.

01 Rationalize

An honest map of the acquired portfolios: what each runs on, what it costs, what is worth keeping and what is duplicated.

02 Migrate in parallel

The platforms worth keeping consolidate onto one governed platform using the Banyan Method, with each business trading throughout.

03 Unify governance

One content model, one compliance posture, one operating model across what used to be separate companies.

04 Hand back sovereignty

The combined team runs the unified platform at the end. The endpoint is self-sufficiency, as with every engagement.

Where it connects

Join the acquired estate together.

Portfolio discovery, migration and long-term ownership have to move together if acquired businesses are to keep trading throughout consolidation.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

What is the Scion offer?

Scion is our post-acquisition consolidation pillar: rationalizing, migrating and unifying the digital platforms an acquisition leaves you with, onto one governed platform. It is a new pillar, with a US focus.

Can you consolidate without disrupting the acquired businesses?

Yes. Each platform worth keeping migrates in parallel, the Banyan Method, so every business keeps trading until the unified platform is load-bearing.

What about the platforms we do not want to keep?

Rationalization decides that honestly, up front. We keep what works, retire what is duplicated, and migrate the rest onto one platform.

Is this only for US deals?

The pillar is US-focused, but the method applies to any multi-platform consolidation after an acquisition.
