Proud to see our Kroll Discovery & Analytics Solutions team featured for the work we’re doing using Relativity Contracts to drive real value for clients. Huge kudos to Jyoti Singhal, CEDS, who led the way on this effort and helped turn a complex contracts challenge into a more accurate and efficient solution. This is a great example of how thoughtful use of technology, combined with strong subject‑matter expertise, delivers better outcomes. Well done to the team- and more to come. #KrollCDR #Relativity #LegalOps #GenAI

53% of CEOs expect to pursue acquisitions in the next 12 months, with transformation firmly in focus. That signal from the latest EY-Parthenon CEO Outlook reflects a shift I’m seeing with leadership teams. M&A is being used less as an episodic growth move and more as a deliberate way to reconfigure the enterprise.   Where value is created has changed. It’s no longer only about the announcement of the deal, but about the discipline behind it – clear strategic intent, integration aligned to the operating model, and early attention to people and skills.   Advantage won’t come from doing more deals. It will come from using M&A deliberately – and executing it well.   Read more from the survey below. 🔽 https://lnkd.in/gYTReMwa #CEOs #ShapeTheFutureWithConfidence
