Every acquisition is, quietly, a migration project

When two companies merge, almost nothing about their systems lines up.

Different tenants. Different identity structures. Different infrastructure, built by different teams, for different reasons, over different timelines.

Making the combined company actually function as one organization means integrating all of that — and that integration work is migration, whether or not anyone on the deal team uses that word.

This is a big part of why M&A activity drives so much sustained migration demand. It’s not optional scope that gets cut if the timeline gets tight. It’s the thing that has to happen for the acquisition to deliver the value it was supposed to deliver.

Every acquisition becomes a migration project. The only question is whether it’s planned as one from the start.
