Company acquisition - change network IP scheme?

Our company just purchased three other small companies and i am wondering if I should be considering changing their IP scheme.  At this point there are a handful or two of devices and users so the job is not too bad - its just that the new companies are hours of flying time away.

Each company will be connected to our corporate network using IPSec tunnels.  one of the companies has a 157.x.x.x and the other two are 192.168.6.x and 192.168.0.x

I'm more curious of doing this out of best practices but also i believe in the future we could have a conflict with additional acquisitions.

Any recommendations would be appreciated!

change it now. The longer you wait, the bigger a pain it's going to be.
I agree with the above on the 157. network, and 192.168.0.x is used in consumer routers. So two out of 3 need be changed and accordingly you should proceed while it remains easy (not necessarily convenient) to change.
