The long-term well-being of the company and its personnel require that the PMI process not be accelerated to an unreasonable pace. But the integration activities necessary to achieve the stated deal benefits/synergies should be prioritized, along with well-considered quick wins. Cleanup integration activities can follow a more delayed timetable. As the final section in the IM&S module pointed out, the PMI project shouldn’t linger on, and the reigns should be turned over to line managers within a reasonable time–6 months to 1.5 years.
