Akquisitionen zum Erfolg führen: Einblicke in Post-Merger Integrationen mit Dr. Carsten Friedrichs (The Hardt Group)
In dieser Folge begrüßen unsere Gründungspartner RA Thorsten Rohde und RA Dr. Johannes Baier mit Dr. Carsten Friedrichs den Geschäftsführer der The Hardt Group GmbH.
Seine Begeisterung für Transformationsprojekte und Post Merger Integration hat Carsten schon früh in seiner Laufbahn bei der Boston Consulting Group entdeckt. Sein erstes Projekt führt ihn in eine internationale Post Merger Integration: ein Lateinamerikanisches Unternehmen hat einen der Top-3 Player in Europa gekauft.
Auf seiner Reise folgten mehreren Stationen in Portfolio Unternehmen von Private Equity Fonds, bei denen er die Organisationen durch anspruchsvolle Transformationen geführt hat. Bei The Hardt Group – einer Unternehmensberatung für Transformationsprozesse – begleitet er heute mittelständische Unternehmen bei der erfolgreichen Transformation.

Meet PMI Experts. 30 Minute Live Expert Talks.
With PMIspective, we are launching a new series of Expert Talks this year. We want to deal intensively with Post Merger Integration and enable the exchange between interested, experienced and experts.
We meet virtually for an interactive round of talks. To ensure that we don't run out of things to talk about, we take on a topic of in-depth discussion for each session. Above all, however, the focus is on the exchange between all participants. Even we PMI experts can and want to learn. That's why we exchange ideas openly and without obligation and smile about the one or the other anecdote.
An overview of the planned PMIspective Expert Talks can be found here.
The next PMIspective Expert Talk will be on March 22nd on Successful PMI project-organization.
We are looking forward to it!

A private equity investor wanted its provider of laboratory analytics to grow via a buy and build strategy. The aim was to make the business more efficient and get individual sites to critical mass by carrying out standardization and specializing individual services. We worked with the investor to develop this strategy, calculated the value creation levers and identified initial targets. We are proud to report that this resulted in growth across the board, with output, sales and profitability improving at all of the company's existing locations. What's more, the investor now has the blueprint for successful future acquisitions.

A private equity fund had a successful portfolio company in the automotive services sector and wanted to get even more out of this business model. It ordered the company to grow via acquisitions and by opening new locations. This is where we came into play, developing the entire strategy and implementation plan for the expansion. We then provided support for the crucial first few steps, from target search, due diligence and negotiations all the way to integration. We did this so thoroughly that we made ourselves surplus to requirements for the rest of the process – which was great news for our client!

A machine tool manufacturer made an add-on investment in a company in order to open up a new market. The new company already had sales organizations for this customer group in the same countries as the client. Our job was to bring together these organizations across all 12 countries, with their colorful mix of corporate cultures, as part of the integration process. We were also tasked with defining and combining central functions – fast. With this in mind, we began joint planning before the deal was closed, with a particular focus on fostering intercultural understanding within the company. The new sales organization went live three months after closing.
