{"product_id":"9780979825736","title":"Doing the M\u0026A Deal: A Quick Access Field Manual \u0026 Guide","description":"This guide is written primarily for the first time business buyer, but can also be used as a checklist for the experienced M\u0026amp;A professional. This field manual and guide will take the business leader and his team of experts through the Mergers \u0026amp; Acquisitions operations process from Due Diligence to completed integration or transition. Many books describe how to value acquisitions, and how to negotiate a fair price. This book describes the entire systematic process to fully execute the transaction - from Due Diligence review through completed integration. Throughout the text, action steps are highlighted using underlined italic text to simplify the guide's use. The numbering convention used throughout the guide - for example \"2.3.2 - Executive Advocates\" - could be used as a basis for work paper or filing purposes. \u003cp\u003eThis manual outlines the timing, a description of the personnel requirements, and actual activities necessary to complete a successful merger. Example analyses and forms will serve as a guideline to the M\u0026amp;A teams. Every M\u0026amp;A transaction is different. The templates included are thought provoking guides to consider rather than forms that must be 100% completed. While a $100 million acquisition may be more complex, the checklist of major review issues will be the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Field Manual will discuss the 'experience side' of doing the M\u0026amp;A deal, and will not describe business strategy, target company selection or valuation techniques.
