consolidate
Combine into one
Consolidate means to combine separate things into a unified whole, or to strengthen by bringing together.
Companies consolidate when they merge operations: The firm consolidated its three regional offices into one.
You consolidate power by securing control, or consolidate debt by combining multiple loans.
The word suggests both unification and strengthening—scattered resources become more manageable or effective when consolidated.
