Post-merger operating model mapper

For acquisition integration leaders, turn approved organization charts and process inventories into integration operating-model comparison. Address this specific problem: integration plans overlook incompatible processes and responsibilities. The aim: map operating differences before committing integration work. The pilot tests whether that benefit holds up against reviewer effort and real operating costs.

The buyer creates a project, supplies approved organization charts and process inventories, and confirms scope and access. Users correct extracted facts, resolve flagged uncertainties and approve the final integration operating-model comparison before use. Retain source links and a version history for the next cycle.

How the AI works

Propose function mappings for leadership confirmation. Keep model suggestions separate from verified facts. Link factual outputs to authorized input evidence and show missing information explicitly. Use deterministic checks for counts, dates, identifiers and arithmetic where applicable. A designated reviewer validates consequential outputs and signs off the delivered result.

Safeguards

Show source dates and distinguish evidence from strategic assumptions. Keep sensitive company plans restricted to authorized participants. Two functions; employment and transaction decisions excluded. Require appropriate access and publication approval. Preserve source material, label AI drafts and make corrections traceable. Measure false positives and missed cases alongside speed.

What to build first

Costed pilot: Two functions; employment and transaction decisions excluded. Start with one buyer organization and a bounded set of representative inputs. Implement the first two modules: align business functions; compare decision rights. Support the third task through an assisted review queue: identify duplicate handoffs. Handle the remaining required functions manually until validated. Include input upload, source references, user correction, a reviewer approval step and export of integration operating-model comparison. Authentication, account isolation, deletion controls and basic operational logging are included. Specialized production certification, live write integrations and broader rollout are not included unless explicitly stated.

What it can connect to

Internal reports, public company information and decision registers. Read-only operational exports, calendars and finance or inventory records as relevant. Start with plan exports and retain human approval for execution. Begin with uploads and exports of approved organization charts and process inventories. Any named system or connector is a candidate requiring current access and compatibility checks; no live connection is included by default.

The screens in detail

Place editable drivers and constraints beside a clearly labeled scenario output. Include a baseline view, comparison chart or schedule, and an assumptions history. Let users trace a proposed quantity or date back to its inputs. Keep forecasts distinct from actual results. Open with entity map; move into operating differences for the detailed task; finish in integration choices for review and handoff. Show the source record, uncertainty and approval status beside each proposed output.
