Off Mandate: Integration Technology - What Actually Works

This Off Mandate will be an honest conversation between a small group of experienced operators about what works, what fails, and where most teams waste time and money in the name of “technology.”

About

Who This Is For

​This session is for integration leaders and teams who need to make real tech decisions during M&A, including:

  • Integration leaders / IMO owners
  • Corp dev and deal teams supporting integration
  • ​IT leaders and app owners involved in post-close execution
  • Operators responsible for making systems, data, and workflows work post-close

What You'll Learn

We'll get specific on:

  • What integration technology is actually doing well right now (and what’s still failing)
  • ​The tools and workflows that consistently work across integrations, plus the non-negotiables that make them work
  • Where most companies get it wrong: buying tools to “solve” problems they haven’t defined
  • ​The real debate: Are teams over-tooled, or under-invested in the basics?
  • ​How to pressure-test your situation with live audience scenarios and hard tradeoffs

Recording & Participation Guidelines

Agenda

How the Audience Participates

  • Q&A box: Drop your scenario or question anytime. Best format: what you're dealing with → what's stuck → what you need to decide.
  • Raise your hand: We'll bring select audience members on to speak directly.
  • Priority goes to: Specific, real situations over general questions. We want to help you solve something, not just talk about it.
