Successful integrations begin with more than a strong deal — they begin with an organization that's prepared to execute.
Enterprise Value Partners' Integration Capability Assessment (iCAT) helps organizations evaluate their ability to successfully integrate acquisitions by assessing operational capabilities, organizational readiness, governance, and functional maturity before integration begins.
Built on proven methodologies and more than 130 successful integrations, iCAT provides leaders with actionable insights that reduce integration risk and strengthen acquisition outcomes.
Organizations often focus significant effort on evaluating acquisition targets, but spend far less time evaluating their own ability to absorb and integrate a new business.
The Integration Capability Assessment provides a structured evaluation of your organization's integration capabilities across critical business functions.
Rather than relying on assumptions, iCAT uses structured assessments and proven methodologies to identify strengths, uncover capability gaps, and prioritize improvements before integration begins.
Evaluate your organization's ability to successfully support an acquisition through structured assessments of leadership, governance, operational processes, systems, and organizational capabilities.

Receive a clear readiness score supported by practical recommendations that help leadership understand where to focus resources before closing a transaction.
Rather than simply highlighting issues, the assessment prioritizes improvement opportunities based on their potential impact on integration success.
