Application Window for M&A Best Practices Award

The 2025 M&A Best Practices Award

Today, the application window opens for the M&A Best Practices Award—the second of the three annual Awards in our Excellence in Acquisitive Growth Awards series.

To be considered for this Award, applicants must describe a process, initiative, technique, or strategy their firm deploys in either (a) deal-making or (b) integration of acquisitions that they consider worthy of recognition as an industry “best practice”—one that could be emulated by other acquirers aiming to achieve superior results. 

The Award ceremony for this year’s M&A Best Practices Award will take place at the 11^th annual Western States M&A and Business Symposium in June. The venue for this year’s symposium is once again the luxury five-star Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas where over 200 AE industry executives and investors will be in attendance.

This year’s recipient will join previous M&A Best Practices Award honorees Terracon (Olathe, KS) (ENR #18) and Trinity Consultants (Dallas, TX).

In addition to the Award and the accompanying industry recognition, Morrissey Goodale will make a $1,000 donation to an AE industry-related 501(c)(3) organization chosen by the recipient. We will also feature the Award recipient and their M&A best practice in an upcoming edition of Word on the Street.

If you would like your firm to be considered for the M&A Best Practices Award, we invite you to complete the simple application here. The application should take no more than 20 to 30 minutes to complete. The application window closes at midnight Eastern on Friday, May 9. The Award recipient will be notified in early June. If you have any questions, please contact our awards department at [email protected].
