Just as a surgeon would never attempt a transplant without testing compatibility, no board should attempt a merger or acquisition without the ICMG M&A X-ray Protocol. This is not about “synergy.” It’s about answering the real question: Is there an anatomy match?
Without this test, M&A is a gamble. With it, leaders can diagnose before they cut.
Enterprises, like human bodies, are living systems. You cannot simply stitch two together and hope for harmony. The wrong match equals rejection.
That’s why every M&A needs Enterprise Anatomy.
The ICMG M&A X-ray Protocol is a pre-merger diagnostic that examines two enterprises across six perspectives (P1–P6) and fifteen departments (D1–D15) to expose hidden incompatibilities. It reveals where sales, finance, IT, and operations will reject each other, and where true integration is possible — preventing billion-dollar failures before they happen.
