OTM Wisdom from Dallin Whitfield "You have not finished your M&A work until you have integrated and stabilized your operating model." Many professionals think M&A integration work is completed when the ink on the contract dries. In reality, this is just the beginning of the work that is required to practically join together two companies. Numerous studies have shown that three years post-acquisition, only 15-35% of mergers and acquisitions ever achieve the desired synergies largely due to poor operational and cultural integration.

Many HR professionals lump these two together referring to them as OD&D particularly because at some point, Organization Design requires roles and jobs design and assigning people.
