Large Financial Firm Integrates M&A Systems

Challenge

A large U.S.-based financial services firm was undergoing rapid expansion through a series of mergers and acquisitions. As part of this aggressive growth strategy, the company faced the complex challenge of integrating more than 200 newly acquired locations into its existing technology and communications infrastructure. The project included aligning disparate data networks, telephony systems, and printer services while maintaining uninterrupted business operations.

Approach

Leading Edge Design Group (LEDG) partnered closely with the client to deploy fully integrated, scalable networks across more than 200 sites. LEDG developed a comprehensive, repeatable implementation process that ensured consistency, efficiency, and speed across every phase of the rollout.

The project team established robust executive reporting frameworks to provide leadership with real-time visibility into project milestones, risks, and performance. The LEDG team also managed a diverse mix of vendors and contractors, establishing a unified project management structure to ensure accountability and on-time delivery.

By focusing on clear communication, disciplined scheduling, and proactive issue resolution, LEDG ensured that the technical integration supported the business's fast-paced growth objectives without delays or service interruptions.

Results

  • Successfully achieved required quality of service benchmarks across the entire project.
  • Developed and executed optimized project schedules that allowed for predictable, efficient site transitions.
  • Delivered a seamless integration experience that enabled the newly acquired locations to be fully operational within the target timelines with no disruption to business activities.

As the financial services firm continues its growth strategy, LEDG's scalable processes and reporting tools remain a critical foundation for future acquisitions and seamless integrations.
