Ways to work with us - Use atlanticma.ai with as much of our support as you need.
Three levels, from running the programme yourselves to a programme our partners lead.
Level 1 - Self-directed
Your team runs the programme in atlanticma.ai on its own. You subscribe at the published price and set up your projects yourselves.
Level 2 - Set up with us
Your team runs the programme, and we get it started in atlanticma.ai. Choose how much of the plan we build with you.
2aMinimal project setup
You already have a plan, and we support it. We set up the project in atlanticma.ai around your plan and train your team, so the programme runs in the application from the start.
2bWe develop the plan with you
We build the integration plan with your team and populate the application as we go, through the three key events that start every integration.
Step 1
Executive Alignment
Just before the deal is announced
Clarifies the why, clear roles, integration principles and the rules for communication.Step 2
WeekOne
Right after Executive Alignment
Engagement down to manager level. Teams build and adapt their own plan, so they own it, and meet each other properly for the first time.Step 3
Synergy Working Session
Six to eight weeks after closing
By then the teams have formed, and the first quick wins can typically be announced.
Level 3 - Partner-led programme
Our partners lead the programme, then step down as your team takes on the work, on a monthly retainer agreed at the start. Each programme has two dimensions: the type of project, and the four gears we plan from the start.
The type of project
