Corporate real estate executives and their departments can benefit themselves and enhance the value added to their companies by taking applying a merger perspective to their departmental organisation and activities. The dynamics and expectations experienced in actual merger situations can provide a foundation from which to improve one’s departmental organisation, data collection/retention and management techniques, regardless of whether a corporate merger is in one’s future. This paper outlines the components of the merger experience and investigates the benefits of adopting a merger perspective.
