INFORMATION CONSULTING GROUP

Leverage elite private equity and M&A experience to successfully integrate acquisitions

and execute carve-outs—with the collaborative approach and cost-effectiveness that large firms can't match.

Your Success is Our Mission.

When precision matters and timelines are tight, Information Consulting Group (ICG) delivers. We help private equity firms, portfolio companies, and mid-sized businesses plan and execute complex mergers, carve-outs, and integrations with a level of strategy and hands-on expertise traditionally reserved for the Fortune 500.

Our founder-led, boutique consulting firm provides enterprise-grade solutions without the excessive overhead, rigid systems, or disconnected teams you’ll find at large consulting firms. Every engagement is customized, every strategy actionable, and every outcome tied to real-world performance.

At Information Consulting Group (ICG), we specialize in high-impact M&A integration and carve-out solutions tailored for private equity firms and corporate acquirers. Our expert team ensures every transaction is strategically aligned, operationally sound, and flawlessly executed—whether you’re integrating a newly acquired company or managing a complex divestiture. From pre-deal planning to post-close execution, we provide the insight, structure, and hands-on leadership you need to turn deals into lasting value.

Our Core Services

Pre-Acquisition Diligence & Synergy Planning

We help you make smarter deals by identifying operational synergies, potential risks, and integration readiness before you commit. Our approach ensures that you not only understand what you’re buying but also how it will fit seamlessly into your existing operations, setting the stage for maximum value creation.

Post-Merger Integration (PMI)

Successful mergers do not end at closing—it begins there. We establish and manage a Program Management Office (PMO) to drive alignment, accelerate synergy capture, and ensure a smooth transition from Day 1 onward. Our structured yet flexible methodology minimizes disruption while keeping your business moving forward.

Carve-Out Execution & Separation Management (SMO)

Whether you’re divesting a business unit or spinning off a new entity, we lead the strategic, operational, and technical disentanglement process. Our focus is on achieving clean exits, reducing risk and TSA exposure, and, building the foundations for long-term standalone success.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q:

What makes ICG different from a large consulting firm?

ICG delivers enterprise-grade integration and carve-out expertise without the bloated teams or excessive costs of traditional global firms. Every engagement is led by a seasoned consultant—not delegated to junior staff—ensuring faster decision-making, greater alignment, and better ROI.

Q:

At what stage should we engage ICG?

The earlier, the better. We provide value across the full deal lifecycle—from pre-acquisition due diligence and synergy planning to post-close execution. Engaging us early allows for better integration design, risk mitigation, and alignment across stakeholders.

Q:

Do you only work with private equity firms?

While private equity is a core focus, we also support corporate buyers, mid-market companies, and founder-led businesses navigating complex M&A transactions. Our flexible delivery model adapts to your needs, whether you're a fund, a portfolio company, or a corporate acquirer.

Q:

Do you provide on-site support or work remotely?

We do both. Our model is hybrid by default—onsite when it’s essential, remote when it’s efficient. We tailor our approach based on project scope, team structure, and your organizational preferences.
