  11. Comparing Apples to Aardvarks • In the private sector, mergers & acquisitions (M&A) involve integrating • Apples and apples (similar line of business) • Apples and oranges (new business) • In the public sector, IT integration typically involves integrating apples and aardvarks • 10 Secretariats • 183 Business functions

  12. Apples to Aardvarks • Private sector - Funded and staffed in “clean room” style • Public sector - Unfunded mandate with no more staff • Private sector - Integrate quickly, then transform • Public sector – Do it all at once • Private sector – Think enterprise! • Public sector – Guard the silos!
