For merger integration PMO leaders

400 action items. 12 workstreams. One integration plan that’s actually current.

In Parallel captures every decision from every integration workstream meeting — IT, HR, Finance, Legal, Ops — and turns them into a living integration plan that updates itself. Start free.

The integration tax

70% of mergers fail to deliver expected value. The PMO is where that changes.

Integration complexity isn’t a planning problem — it’s a coordination problem. Decisions scatter across workstream meetings, spreadsheets, and email chains faster than anyone can track.

70%

of mergers fail to deliver their expected synergies and value.

Not because the thesis was wrong — because integration decisions fell through the cracks between workstreams, and drift went undetected until it was too late.

Bain & Company M&A Report

200-400 action items

A typical mid-market integration generates hundreds of action items across 12+ workstreams. Tracked in spreadsheets that go stale within hours of the last update meeting.

Day 1 surprises

An IT migration decision affects HR onboarding. The communications team doesn’t know until Day 1. Nobody flagged it because nobody could see across workstreams.

12+ tools, zero visibility

Smartsheet for IT, Jira for product, Excel for Finance, email for Legal. None of them show the PMO what was actually decided across all workstreams this week.

How In Parallel helps

From 12 workstreams to one living integration plan.

01

Decision capture across every workstream

In Parallel joins your IT, HR, Finance, Legal, Operations, and Communications integration meetings — captures every decision, owner, and deadline. No manual notes. No chasing workstream leads for updates.

02

Living integration plan

Your 100-day plan updates itself from meeting signals. When an IT migration decision affects the HR onboarding timeline, it shows up immediately — not a week later in the next SteerCo.

03

Drift detection before Day 1

Know when a workstream diverges from what was agreed before it becomes a Day 1 readiness gap. In Parallel surfaces the gap between decisions and actions automatically — across all 12+ workstreams.

04

SteerCo-ready in 30 minutes

Stop spending a full day assembling status reports from 12 workstream leads. Integration health data is always current because it comes from the meetings where decisions actually happen.

Trusted by integration teams

An integration PMO cut their SteerCo prep from a full day to 30 minutes.

“We had 14 workstreams and 300+ action items. Within two weeks, the integration plan was updating itself from meeting decisions. We caught three critical cross-workstream conflicts before Day 1.”

What changes when integration decisions stop disappearing.

Without In Parallel

With In Parallel

  • Every workstream decision captured automatically with owner, deadline, and context
  • Living integration plan that updates itself from real meeting signals
  • Drift alerts before Day 1 or 100-day milestones slip
  • Rapid SteerCo reporting — 30 minutes, not a full day
  • Integration team focused on decisions, not administration
