By strengthening our capabilities in the missile defence, hypersonics, and intel markets, we will be even better positioned to continue serving the important missions of the US Government.”
“As announced this past summer, SEG has been looking to partner with a new parent organisation that is more strategically focused on government technical services,” says Michael Anderson, President of SEG. “We are thrilled to have found that partner in QuantiTech and are energised by the opportunities created through this combination. QuantiTech’s complementary customers and capabilities will allow us to expand our presence as a leader in threat engineering and modelling & simulation.”
