Case Study: a PE-backed AEC services firm integrates acquisitions in record time with Messina Group

a PE-backed AEC services firm integrates an acquisition in 6 weeks with Messina Group

A PE-backed AEC services firm faced significant delays in realizing value from its acquisitions because its data integration process was slow and cumbersome, often taking up to a year. To expedite this and achieve synergies faster, the firm engaged Messina Group to develop a custom data integration framework.

Messina Group implemented a solution using a powerful data cleansing and AI-enabled profiling tool built with Knime, Python, and Azure AI. This framework, paired with a resource and governance plan, allowed the client to fully integrate an acquisition in just six weeks with no post-integration issues. This proven ability to rapidly integrate strategic acquisitions increased the firm's enterprise value and demonstrated its maturity to its private equity sponsor.
