This role is pivotal as it ensures that the integration process aligns with the overall strategic objectives of the organization. The responsibilities listed highlight the need for active oversight, which is essential for navigating the complexities of integrating 2 entities.

On the other hand, the Integration Steering Group serves as the governing body for the integration phase. Its responsibilities include selecting team members based on proposals from the integration project manager, specifying performance measures and reporting instructions, and supervising the integration team's activities. The group is tasked with making significant decisions and monitoring project costs against the budget, ensuring that the integration remains financially viable and strategically sound.
