Godspeed Capital Management-backed Special Aerospace Services is acquiring Willbrook Solutions, Inc., marking the first addition to the recently launched space engineering, defense and communications technology solutions platform.
This expands SAS’ capabilities in the missile defense industry.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with the talented and experienced team at Willbrook and look forward to leveraging their strategic relationships and capabilities in the missile defense market and community to add significant breadth and depth to the SAS platform and portfolio,” said Heather Bulk, CEO of SAS. “We look forward to working closely with Willbrook’s senior leadership team to further expand our relationship with the MDA and other key customers.”
Willbrook provides analytical solutions to the Missile Defense Agency, Defense Intelligence Agency, NASA, the Defense Department and commercial space customers. A team of 75 cleared professionals will bring expertise to SAS across critical programs at MDA and other agencies. This includes support for ground and space-based missile defense, offensive and defensive missile systems analysis, modeling and simulation, and data analysis, the company said.
“On behalf of our dedicated and experienced employees at Willbrook, we are excited to become part of the larger strategically positioned SAS platform,” said Kendell Phillips, president of Willbrook. “We look forward to leveraging our strong engineering, analytical capabilities and expertise across critical missile defense programs while supporting strategic customers and pursuing organic growth opportunities in conjunction with SAS.”
