# Add-On Acquisition Pipeline
## When to use
Use this skill when M&A is a named lever in the value creation plan and the platform is stable enough to absorb a transaction -- typically once the 100-day plan is complete and finance can close a month in under two weeks. Use it again at every annual value creation review, because the arithmetic that made add-on three accretive rarely survives to add-on eight.
## What it does
Produces a consolidation thesis, target criteria with explicit disqualifiers, the arbitrage arithmetic including where it stops being real, an integration capacity assessment stated in deals per year, and a stop rule.
## Method
### Step 1 -- Consolidation thesis
