Diligence Transaction Execution Transformation & Value Creation

DILIGENCE

Our diligence services give you a clear, fact-based view of the business you're buying or selling—so you can make confident, well-informed decisions.

Standalone Cost Assessment

Performing a Standalone Cost Assessment during the diligence phase of an M&A deal is critical when the transaction involves a carve-out, divestiture, or spin-off—i.e., when the target business is currently integrated within a larger parent organization. It answers the question: “What would this business cost if run as an independent company?”

Synergy Assessment

In Synergy Assessment we identify, quantify, and validate potential value that can be realized by combining two businesses. This bridges the gap between high-level deal rationale and operational reality.

Integration / Separation Readiness Assessments

An Integration or Separation Readiness Assessment evaluates how prepared the target and/or acquiring organization is to execute the operational aspects of a merger, acquisition, or carve-out. It answers the question: “What would it take to execute this deal smoothly?”

Operational Due Diligence (ODD)

In Operational Due Diligence we perform an in-depth evaluation of a company's day-to-day business functions, systems, people, and infrastructure. It helps the buyer understand how the business actually runs—and how well it will perform post-transaction.

TSA Identification, Costing & Governance

Transitional Services Agreements (TSAs) are temporary service arrangements in which the seller agrees to continue providing critical services (e.g., IT, HR, payroll, finance) to the buyer after closing, while the buyer builds or transitions those capabilities. This analysis is essential in carve-outs, divestitures, and other transactions involving shared infrastructure or centralized functions.

TRANSACTION EXECUTION

We ensure that your deal moves seamlessly from strategy to reality.

Day 1 Operating Model Design

Day 1 Operating Model Design defines how the combined or separated business will function operationally on the first day after legal close. It answers the question: “Can the business operate on Day 1 without disruption?”

Day 1 Planning & Execution

Day 1 Planning & Execution ensures that all the operational, legal, and communication activities required at the moment of deal close are prepared, coordinated, and executed without disruption. It is the execution phase that translates the Day 1 operating model into real-world action.

Integration / Separation Management Office (IMO / SMO)

The Integration Management Office (IMO) or Separation Management Office (SMO) is the central governance structure that oversees, coordinates, and drives the execution of an M&A integration or separation. The IMO/SMO provides the discipline needed to deliver the deal's strategic and financial objectives on time and on budget.

Carve-out / Standalone Enablement

Carve-out / Standalone Enablement involves preparing a business unit—previously integrated within a larger corporate structure—to operate as an independent company or under new ownership. This work ensures the carved-out entity is operationally ready, compliant, and stable on Day 1—and positioned to scale thereafter.

Change Management & Communications

Change Management & Communications is the deliberate planning and execution of strategies to support people through the uncertainty, disruption, and transformation that accompany a merger, acquisition, or divestiture. This work ensures that employees understand what's changing, why it matters, and how they fit into the future.

Post-Merger Performance Tracking

Post-Merger Performance Tracking is the structured monitoring of operational, financial, and strategic performance following the close of an M&A transaction. This function helps organizations answer: “Are we actually capturing the value we expected from the deal?”

Operating Model Design Beyond Day 1

Operating Model Design Beyond Day 1 focuses on defining the long-term Target Operating Model (TOM) for the business following the initial post-close stabilization. This work answers the strategic question: “How should the business run—not just today, but in a way that scales, creates value, and supports future growth?”

Vendor Management & Contract Migration

Vendor Management & Contract Migration involves identifying, assessing, and transitioning third-party supplier agreements impacted by a transaction—particularly in carve-outs or separations. This effort ensures that the goods, services, and licenses the business relies on continue without disruption—under the right ownership and terms.

TRANSFORMATION & VALUE CREATION

At Tenavra, we help organizations turn transactions into platforms for sustainable growth.

Interim Leadership & Stakeholder Alignment

Interim Leadership & Stakeholder Alignment is the practice of placing experienced leaders in key roles temporarily during an M&A transition and facilitating alignment across critical internal and external stakeholders. This support ensures leadership continuity and unified direction when the organization is most vulnerable.

Value Creation Planning (VCP)

Value Creation Planning (VCP) is the structured process of defining, prioritizing, and activating the initiatives that will drive measurable performance improvement post-deal. The goal is to move from “why we did the deal” to “how we will deliver the value.”

Business Transformation Program Management

Business Transformation Program Management provides the governance, structure, and discipline needed to successfully deliver large-scale change initiatives such as reorganizations, business expansions, or operational transformations. This work ensures that transformational initiatives are executed with clarity, accountability, and a relentless focus on measurable outcomes.
