It was a consolidation play, but also looking for other tuck-ins or synergies that would add value in the ARR area or to technology we had that was missing something, also talent.

Have you seen it between like when CorpDev doesn't own integration and obviously in this experience they do, what's the difference?

Because if you don't have ownership in the other business units, that's a lot of times where integrations can fail.
