NEW YORK, Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Mercer, a business of Marsh McLennan (NYSE: MMC) and a global leader in helping clients realize their investment objectives, shape the future of work and enhance health and retirement outcomes for their people, and MergerWare, a leading provider of digital M&A deal execution platforms, today announced a strategic alliance aimed at improving how organizations plan, manage, and execute mergers and acquisitions.

The alliance creates a seamless experience for clients by combining Mercer’s extensive expertise in human capital, benefits, and risk management with MergerWare’s innovative deal management technology. With this combination, the organizations aim to deliver a comprehensive solution that enhances efficiency, reduces risks, and accelerates deal timelines for our clients.

Together, the alliance will help organizations:

Simplify due diligence, accelerate decision-making, and improve transparency throughout the deal lifecycle.
Uncover and address people-related risks with data-driven insights
Deliver faster, smoother, and more sustainable integrations

“The key to creating deal value lies at the intersection of business and people strategy,” said Jeff Black, Global Leader of Mercer’s M&A Advisory Services. “Our alliance with MergerWare creates a new standard for deal execution by combining advisory expertise with innovative technology, giving clients the tools they need to achieve growth objectives while minimizing risks.”

“This alliance is about empowering organizations with smarter, faster, and more strategic M&A processes,” said Dhruv Mehra, Partner, Mercer M&A Advisory. “By integrating Mercer’s human capital expertise with MergerWare’s technology, we enable clients to focus on what truly drives long-term deal value: people.”

Dharmendra Singh
, Chief Executive Officer of MergerWare, added: “Too often, M&A failures are the result of weak execution and overlooked cultural alignment. By bringing together Mercer’s deep advisory experience and MergerWare’s digital execution platform, we are giving organizations a practical, technology-enabled approach to reduce deal failure rates and accelerate value creation.”

Research shows that 70–90% of M&A deals fail to achieve their intended value, with cultural misalignment and operational inefficiencies among the leading causes. This alliance directly addresses those challenges, helping businesses overcome integration pitfalls by embedding structure, transparency, and accountability into every stage of the M&A process.

The platform transforms complex, high-stakes transactions into a streamlined, data-driven experience, giving global deal teams a secure digital command center for every phase—from target screening and due diligence to execution and post-merger integration.
