Too often we see TSAs put in as an afterthought.

Managing a shorter TSA process is a significant factor in controlling costs. Both parties are keen to avoid a drawn-out transition phase because this eats into value-creation.

A well-structured TSA is a legal framework that protects both buyer and seller against costly negotiations over what is and what is not in scope. It can ensure a smooth transition and exit in the desired timeframe.  

We provide a range of TSA services that cover everything you might need during the separation.

We can help you draft a holistic TSA with the correct language, level of detail and necesary legal input.

If required, we can then deploy our Project Management as a Service (PMaaS) to define and run your work streams during the transition.

We have often acted as a third-party negotiator in the past; working to meet the needs of both sides to keep the transition period in budget and on time.
