Montis HR Partners is your trusted partner for HR value assessment and capture, whether in pre-transaction due diligence, post-transaction integration, or transforming your HR programs and organizational priorities to better align to your strategy.

We are:

  • Leaders of HR due diligence, risk assessments, and purchase price analysis for global acquisitions.

  • Accountable partners for synergy identification and capture through thoughtful integration planning and execution.

  • Subject Matter Experts in preparing business cases and quality of earnings analyses for divestitures.

  • Creators of HR strategy and priorities for both steady state organizations and those undertaking cultural, product or organizational-design transformations.

  • Business consultants who understand what must be true for a business to succeed, allowing for a strategy that focuses on the critical, people-related priorities.

  • Leaders of global Total Rewards, Talent, and HR organizations, creating philosophy, strategy, programs and processes to deliver on human capital needs, while minimizing P&L and balance sheet risk.

At the root of our work is HR value assessment and capture. Our superpower is identifying and capturing HR-related value prior to a transaction and after a transaction, as well as improving a steady state. We help you thoroughly understand the financial impacts of your HR-related decisions, and then drive value creation for your entire business.

Using our extensive experience, we partner with your leaders and subject matter experts to assess risk areas and conduct a thorough HR Value Assessment of the target company. We then create a plan that delivers your synergy targets across the spectrum.
