The tool you will need to use is Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT)
which can be downloaded from here.

Here is a fairly comprehensive guide to using the tool

Any questions before or during your migrations just post again. Good luck.

I have just been informed that we are going to be doing a huge
consolidation of our company and subcompanies into one AD Forest.

We have our top level company, which will be our forest root, and
about 7 sub companies. The catch is, some of these sub companies are
already running Active Directory, Exchange etc. and have been pretty
much been functioning on their own.

I was looking for some documentation and how-to's on the best way to
tackle a project like this.
I also think Microsoft has a product that is built just for this
situation,but not sure.

Anyone have suggestions or can get me pointed in the right direction?

Thanks,
