Most people assume acquisitions fail because of culture clashes or overpaying. The reality is messier and more preventable.

The post-close struggles that derail deals almost always come down to the same operational gaps:
• No clear ownership of the finance integration
• Disconnected systems and charts of accounts that nobody reconciled
• A close process that wasn't designed to handle two entities at once
• Leadership making decisions without reliable combined financials

These aren't cultural problems, they're ex*****on problems, and they're exactly the kind that a prepared finance team can get ahead of.

The first 90 days after close matter more than most organizations realize. That window sets the tone for everything that follows, including reporting credibility, team confidence, and whether the deal ever actually delivers its promised value.

We broke down the real reasons for post-acquisition integration struggles and what a finance team should prioritize to get it right. 📈

We're proud to welcome Dan Lasik to The Alliance Group Advisory Board. 🙌

Dan retired from Ernst & Young in 2025 following nearly 40 years with the firm, where he served as a senior partner in EY's Washington-area practice advising large global enterprises and emerging public companies across accounting, financial reporting, governance, and business transformation.

During his tenure, Dan held several national and global leadership roles, including serving as EY's Global Head of Hospitality and leading the Financial Accounting Advisory Services Practice for the real estate industry. In 2010, he launched EY's Financial Accounting Advisory Practice in the Eastern U.S., delivering strategic accounting and finance advisory services to publicly traded companies across multiple sectors.

Leadership gaps don't wait for a convenient time.

Whether it's an unexpected departure, a parental leave, or a company scaling faster than its hiring plan can keep up, the Office of the CFO needs continuity.

The wrong move is letting critical functions sit unfilled while a permanent search drags on for months.

Alliance provides experienced interim CFOs, Controllers, and Finance Directors who can step in quickly, lead effectively, and keep the business moving forward.

From day one through transition, our interim leaders bring the experience to stabilize operations, lead teams, and drive results, while you focus on finding the right long-term fit. ⚡

We can have the right person deployed within 48 hours of an initial conversation.

Most finance leaders have a gut sense that their team could be operating at a higher level. What's harder is knowing exactly what "higher level" means in practice.

It's not about headcount or credentials, it's about how the team spends its time.

High-performing finance functions share a few things in common:
• They spend more time analyzing than reconciling
• Their forecasts inform decisions; they don't just document them
• Leadership trusts the numbers without needing to audit them first
• The close is a process, not a crisis

The gap between a reactive finance team and a strategic one usually isn't talent; it's structure, process, and the systems that support them.

We broke down what best-in-class finance functions actually look like and how to benchmark where yours stands today. 📊

Six months in. How's your finance function holding up?

This is the moment most organizations realize the gap between where they planned to be and where they actually are.

The CFOs who use mid-year as a reset point, not just a reporting milestone, tend to come out of the second half stronger.

Ask your team:
• Are your forecasts still telling the right story?
• Is your close process getting faster or slower?
• Do your dashboards reflect the business you're running today?

If the answers are uncomfortable, that's useful information.

Alliance partners with the Office of the CFO to help finance teams assess where they are and build toward where they need to be, mid-year and beyond.

⚙️ Heading into the second half of the year, many organizations are preparing for ERP implementations.

But here’s the reality: ERP success isn’t just about the system, it’s about readiness.

Have you:
✔ Defined your processes?
✔ Cleaned your data?
✔ Aligned your stakeholders?

Without that foundation, even the best technology falls short. 🖥️

Alliance partners with the Office of the CFO to ensure ERP investments deliver real business value, from selection through implementation and beyond.

During that time, he advised finance leaders, boards, and executive teams on technical accounting, SEC reporting, audit readiness, regulatory compliance, and large-scale finance modernization. He also led one of EY's largest regional markets through periods of significant growth, providing strategic oversight and operational leadership to both clients and teams.
