Background and Client Requests

Client is a channel operator within a group, and recently found themselves in need of defining a detailed strategy for realizing synergies and identifying synergy items resulting from a merger. They also needed to establish the direction of their medium to long-term strategy after the merger and design personnel systems to complete the integration of both companies after the merger. As a result, Client commissioned a project from Key To Way with the purpose of identifying synergy effects and medium to long-term strategy after the merger, as well as redesigning personnel systems for PMI.
