Situation:  Two multi-billion-dollar global communications equipment providers required cross-functional integration of lead North American market activities, providing continuity of operations and portfolio/customer alignment

John’s Contribution:  Led the cross-functional integration effort for the North American market including;  legal entity formation, customer alignment, portfolio harmonization, personnel/organizational issues (including restructure), and combined reporting and compliance (including public reporting)

Outcomes:
•  100% compliance against established “Day 1 Readiness” criteria
•  $0 assessed exposure to post-merger customer, vendor and portfolio (IP) liabilities

“Successful consummation of the first-of-its-kind NOC asset purchase and managed services contract with one of our most valued customers was directly attributable to John’s leadership of the bid and negotiation processes.  He brought the creative financial proposals that carried the day for both parties. The relationship could not have been consummated without John’s superior stewardship of our NAM integration efforts.”
