M&A and Divestiture Lift & Shift
Acquisitions shouldn't restart your integrations.
When the business changes hands, the trading partners come with it. Ordanex moves partner estates between business entities through a repeatable plan, transfer, validate and promote workflow, instead of a bespoke migration project.

- Partners cloned to target staging
- Credentials re-referenced

Transition scenarios
One workflow for every kind of transition.
Acquisition
Bring the acquired company's trading partners, connections and mappings into your business entity, then validate and promote them on your schedule.
Divestiture
Carve a partner estate out into a new business entity, keep the source running until cut-over, then retire it without deleting history.
Internal reorganisation
Move partners between business units or consolidate entities with the same planned, staged and validated workflow.
How Lift & Shift works
Plan. Transfer. Validate. Promote.
A transfer plan defines the scope. Configuration lands in the target entity's staging environment, where it is validated before governed promotion to production. The source keeps running until you retire it.
Source business entity
- Trading partners
- Partner profiles
- Connections
- Mapping profiles
- Business and UoM rules
Transfer plan
Clone or move
A fingerprinted plan scopes exactly what moves, for one partner or a whole estate.
Secrets never travel. Credential references are re-pointed or blocked for secure re-entry.

Capabilities
Structured estate transition, with controls at every step.
Lift & Shift reuses the platform's partner configuration, connection model and promotion controls, so a transition follows the same governance as everyday partner change.
Every transition is planned with you
Each Lift & Shift engagement is scoped, planned and approved with your team, so cut-over happens on your schedule and under your controls.
