CACI International has completed its transaction with affiliates of Madison Dearborn Partners and CoVant Management to acquire LGS Innovations, the company announced on 1 March.
LGS Innovations provides real-time spectrum management, C4ISR and cyber products and solutions to the intelligence community and US Department of Defense.
Ken Asbury, president and chief executive officer, CACI, said: ‘CACI’s acquisition of LGS Innovations is the next step in our established strategy to invest in and expand our offerings in signals intelligence, EW and cyber products and solutions.
‘Our collective strengths give CACI a significant competitive advantage in our marketplace and meet our government’s need for agile innovation in developing and deploying advanced capabilities to our warfighters.’
CACI also acquired Mastodon Design in January. The purchase of these two companies will support CACI’s growth in intelligence systems and support, space operations and resiliency, communications and cyber security market areas.
