BlueHalo hit the market hard with six acquisitions in 2020 and as CEO Jonathan Moneymaker explains to Editor Nick Wakeman, this latest platform out of Arlington Capital Partners is pursuing opportunities around the transformation of modern warfare.
BlueHalo s acquisition strategy has focused on capabilities around space superiority, directed energy, missile defense, C4ISR, cybersecurity and intelligence solutions. The goal is to create a mid-tier player that can have an impact on how the U.S. and its allies engage and deter near-peer adversaries.
As Moneymaker explains, the strategy is multi-faceted and one to watch in the years ahead.
BlueHalo, an Arlington, Va.-based provider of advanced engineering solutions and technology to the national security community, completed the acquisitions of Base2 LLC and Fortego LLC.
Co-founded by Edward Wright and Michael Curry, Base2 specializes in the design and development of cyber solutions across the domains of Computer Network Operations (“CNO”), Signals Intelligence (“SIGINT”), and Quick Reaction Capability (“QRC”).
Co-founded by Chad Price and Eric Rothenberger, Fortego has proven capabilities in advanced SIGINT and cyber operations solutions, with end-to-end solutions in cyber analytics, vulnerability research, and CNO engineering.
The two companies have highly complementary capabilities that, together with BlueHalo, will enable the company to address the most complex cyber programs in the national security community.
