Novetta Solutions LLC, a portfolio company of Arlington Capital Partners, announced Oct. 3 the acquisition of Digital Results Group Inc. (DRG) and Sentinel Applied Analytics LLC.
“We are delighted to welcome DRG and Sentinel into the Novetta family as their specialized software and solutions add niche capabilities to our analytics offerings that have already been gaining market momentum and increased adoption. The acquisitions also enable expansion into new customer sets,” Novetta CEO Peter B. LaMontagne said in a statement. “And more importantly, from an employee and cultural perspective, DRG and Sentinel will be a great fit inside Novetta.”
Boston, Mass.-based DRG designs and develops software and technology solutions for government and commercial clients to support the collection, processing and exploitation of multi-intelligence data.

The data analytics firm Sentinel uses applied statistical techniques to identify patterns, trends and relationships.
