The acquisition adds over 300 highly skilled employees.

"This acquisition is consistent with ManTech's long-term strategy to expand our presence in the federal civilian market and enhance our capabilities in IT modernization," said ManTech's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, George J. Pedersen. "The combination will substantially increase ManTech's already strong footprint at DHS, making it one of the largest providers of IT services across the department."

"We are pleased to welcome InfoZen's talented employees, differentiated capabilities and important customers," said ManTech's President and Chief Operating Officer, Kevin M. Phillips. "We are confident this strategic combination will help us better meet our clients' mission-critical needs, strengthen our enterprise and mission IT offerings and provide continued growth."

Raj Ananthanpillai, Chief Executive Officer, InfoZen said, "We are proud to become a part of a company like ManTech. Combining with ManTech allows InfoZen to offer broader solutions to our national security customer base and expand our IT modernization capabilities reach across the government. Additionally, our mission-focused cultures are well aligned and our employees will benefit from expanded professional development opportunities."

The acquisition is subject to various closing conditions and approvals, including approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, and is expected to be completed in October 2017. The parties will enter into a 338(h)(10) election for tax purposes.
