Engineering Solutions and Meadowgate Technologies have agreed to combine to establish a new entity focused on delivering hybrid information technology platforms and professional services to the national security community.
Meadowgate CEO Tom Lash will lead the new company, which will provide technology consulting, systems engineering, product procurement and integration, migration, management and enterprise resiliency and hybrid workload development, the companies said in a joint release published Thursday.
“This combination is a pivotal move in our hybrid technology strategy,” said Lash, a three-decade federal technology industry veteran who joined Meadowgate in March.
Founded in 1998, Hanover, Maryland-based ESi has over 100 cleared specialists skilled in providing software and system engineering, IT management, signals intelligence operations and analysis and enterprise resiliency for the intelligence community.
Annapolis, Maryland-based Meadowgate has been delivering computing products and services to federal government customers since 2006. The company’s Integration Lab will serve as the research and development hub for the newly formed company.
ESi Chief Operations Officer Amy Steinberg; Eddie Harless, vice president of programs; and David Thompson, executive vice president of corporate services; and other members of the company’s executive team will join the combined business’ leadership team.
Ray Gomes, founder and CEO of ESi, will retire from his position but will stay as a strategic adviser to the new company.
KippsDeSanto & Co. served as ESi’s exclusive financial adviser in the transaction.
