Project Overview
Teton Cloud Consulting supported the Client through a complex divestiture and modernization initiative following its bankruptcy, helping separate business functions and exit physical colocation environments. The team conducted due diligence, mapped system dependencies, and built Day 0 and Day 1 operating plans to enable a clean separation of subsidiaries.
