I believe the M&A expert, who has hopefully gone through a few M&As at least, can provide valuable insight and hind sight around what has made M&As successful and perhaps then utilize those as levers to improve price or experience of the people who are impacted by the selling of the part of the business they belong to. The M&A expert likely has really valuable market/industry insight as well, which can help in the sell strategy and evaluation of potential buyers.
