3. CASE STUDY
3
One of the world’s big five film studios that
leverages the capabilities of technology and
filmmakers to bring imagination to life through
animated films.
• The client was able to quickly adapt to
an increasingly challenging and dynamic
business environment. It was able to
operate more efficiently, reduce
operating costs, and effectively bring
products to markets worldwide.
• Synoptek’s services also enabled the
client to collaborate on accelerating
global release management and enabled
the parallel release of products in
multiple markets around the country.
It was imperative from the IT Assessment that the consolidation was done using globally
integrated processes/systems and a large pool of resources. Synoptek also realized that
improving existing processes and systems was a clear path to success.
Synoptek managed the overall implementation of a Global Product Development Program for the
client. Our activities included:
• Assessment of current global IT infrastructure and supporting processes
• Development of a strategic plan and roadmap
BENEFITS
SOLUTION
• The client was looking to reorganize and
consolidate its North American and
International businesses. It realized,
merging the two entertainment
companies would create several distinct
challenges; consolidation of product
development/product management
business practices would not be easy.
• The client wanted to carry out an IT
Assessment and receive an advance on
how to strategically consolidate the two
businesses to improve business
efficiency and bring down operational
costs.

Private Equity Firm to Drive Process
Improvements and Boost Operating
Efficiency

5. CASE STUDY
5
A Connecticut-based Private Equity (PE) firm
that provides capital and management support
to improve sales and operations.
• With Synoptek’s assessment,
recommendations and guidance, the
client obtained insight into existing areas
of challenges and limitations that would
restrict it from getting the maximum
results from this M&A.
• Synoptek’s phased approach showed
the client how it could streamline its IT
infrastructure to win more businesses
together post M&A.
• If the client implements all the
recommendations as provided by
Synoptek, it could reduce overall IT
expenses by 25%.
Synoptek carried out a detailed assessment of the client’s existing IT environment and offered a
few recommendations that would help the client achieve the desired M&A goals. Our
recommendations included:
• Streamlining operations by modernizing technology
• Leveraging cloud systems to enable scalability and reduce capital costs
• Consolidating and simplifying systems to reduce total cost of IT
• Implementing a common platform to unify operations and enable profitable growth.
Our IT Due Diligence Assessment Services were offered in three phases:
• Phase 1: Identify merger synergies
• Phase 2: Optimize operating cost efficiency
• Phase 3: Become market leader as a combined company
BENEFITS
SOLUTION
• Analysis of a potential M&A was in
progress when the client was looking for
IT Due Diligence Assessment Services
for a new acquisition.
• Since multiple parties were involved, the
PE firm needed to identify a standalone
IT profile for secure and careful
treatment of information gathered and
analysis results.
• The client contacted Synoptek for IT
Due Diligence Assessment Services , so
they could make ROI-driven technology
decisions.
