On your systems weeks after close. Orders, customers, and jobs, moved once.
Every acquisition brought its own systems and spreadsheets, and month end is a controller assembling reports by hand. We move the new company's orders, customers, and jobs onto the platform's systems in weeks.
The thesis was synergy. The reality is six versions of everything.
Each acquisition arrives with its own systems, its own spreadsheets, and its own way of naming things.
Roll-up reporting is a person assembling numbers by hand, later and later each month.
The systems migration scoped for the first hundred days is still pending at day four hundred.
Orders, customers, and jobs, moved
The new company's orders, customers, and jobs moved into the platform's systems in weeks, not quarters.
Branch numbers roll up automatically, and the controller gets month end back. This gets more from what you already bought: the operational overlap the thesis priced in starts existing. The same playbook runs on the next acquisition, faster.
An agent maps the acquired company onto your fields and reconciles what does not line up, so the migration is a review instead of a rebuild.
