Research

Andreas Freitag is an external PhD student and works in the project team Mergers & Acquisitions.

Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) are an established management instrument for external growth. Despite their high relevance in today’s business environment, enterprises still struggle to manage M&A efficiently and a significant number of merger projects does not reach the expected goals or fails completely. Therefore, companies attempt to improve their M&A capability by establishing the required skills, organization, processes and methods.

Enterprise Architecture (EA) Management is an approach for business and IT planning. It fosters communication and provides a consistent information base, thus promising to contribute to the success of business transformation challenges such as M&A. Business capability models are proposed as a potential starting point. As an essential element of a state of the art EA Management approach, they describe the functional building blocks of the business model as part of the EA. Furthermore they are frequently used to work collaboratively with business and IT stakeholders.

His research focus lies on EA Management in the context of Mergers and Acquisitions, especially the application of business capability models in the M&A process of a corporate buyer organization.
