FAIRFAX, Va., March 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Salient CRGT, Inc., a leading provider of agile software development, data analytics, mobility, cyber security, and infrastructure solutions, today announced the completion of its previously announced acquisition of Information Innovators, Inc. ("Triple-i"), a technology and mission-focused company serving the federal government, with a growing presence in the healthcare information technology market.
"From the beginning, acquisitions have been an important part of our strategy so as to position the company for growth and to ensure the right breadth of customers, capabilities and contracts. This is another major milestone for Salient CRGT, our investors and our customers," said Brad Antle, Chief Executive Office, Salient CRGT. "Expanding our capabilities into healthcare IT and consulting will help expand our customer base in areas that have tremendous potential for growth and where Salient CRGT can bring capabilities that will make a significant difference to better support the missions of our customers. Our newly integrated company will have about a quarter of its business coming from healthcare, with another quarter from defense and intelligence, and the remaining 50 percent from the federal civilian sector."
"The Triple-i executive team and employees are excited to join Salient CRGT. We recognize the unique opportunity that joining Salient CRGT presents for our customers, our market and our company," said Steve Ikirt, President and Chief Executive Officer, Triple-i. "Coupling our solutions and services, experience and talented teams will provide maximum flexibility and value to our portfolio of high-profile agencies, including Health and Human Services, Department of Veterans Affairs, Defense Health Agency, and Department of Homeland Security."
Throughout its history, Salient CRGT has been focused on delivering capabilities to customers that can help transform the way they are supporting their missions, while improving efficiency of operations and easing maintenance. The company's focus on providing thought leadership and capacity around digital services, data analytics, cyber, mobility, cloud and ITSM, enable customers to leverage their resources to achieve maximum results.
"Salient CRGT has a long and successful track record, dating back more than 30 years, of providing leading edge technology to solve our customers' problems," said Tom Ferrando, President, Salient CRGT. "Our legacy sits on a foundation of critical technologies that support the transformation of how our customers support their missions such as agile and data analytics. A majority of Triple-i's professionals are focused on healthcare services. The combination of the two companies sets the path to provide healthcare analytics to a broad range of customers as we look to cover the entire spectrum of what healthcare agencies require in today's challenging environment. Our plan within the next three months is to roll out a full range of new and exciting analytics and business intelligence services to meet current and future demands in these agencies."
"This acquisition provides us with the next vital piece in the long-term plan that we envisioned years ago. We can now aggressively pursue opportunities from pure IT services to mission critical applications, and from domain-specific health services to community care outreach programs. I can't imagine a problem that we would not be able to address for our healthcare agency customers. We are looking forward to this exciting next chapter of our company," said Ferrando.
