MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES
Google Workspace migrations for mergers and acquisitions
Corporate changes create the hardest migrations: two domains becoming one, an acquired team joining your tenant, or a division leaving with its data. We plan these as staged, tenant-to-tenant moves so business keeps running on both sides.

Scope
What moves
Mergers
Consolidate several domains into one primary domain, or keep them as secondary domains under a single tenant.
Acquisitions
Move users from an acquired company, on Google Workspace or another platform, into your tenant on your timeline.
Divestitures
Separate the users and data of a departing division into a new Google Workspace tenant.
Planning
What to plan for
Email addresses and aliases
Decide early which addresses survive, which become aliases, and how long old domains keep receiving mail.
Shared drives and ownership
File ownership and sharing must be remapped so nothing becomes orphaned when accounts move.
Day-one communication
Users on both sides need clear instructions. We provide change management resources for each batch.

Questions about Mergers and acquisitions migrations
What is a tenant-to-tenant migration?
It moves users and data from one Google Workspace organization to another, which is common when companies merge or split. Accounts, mail, Drive, and calendars are mapped to new identities.
Can an acquired company keep its domain?
Yes. Its domain can be added as a secondary domain so users keep their addresses while working in your tenant.
