ACQUISITION OF R. W. BECK GROUP STRENGTHENS SAIC'S POSITION IN ENERGY AND OTHER UTILITY MARKETS

摘要

In contrast with the earlier years of this decade, 2009 has not been full of blockbuster mergers and acquisitions in the environmental and infrastructure consulting and engineering industry.rnEven if it had been, however, the acquisition of R. W. Beck Group, Inc. (Seattle, WA; www.nvbeck.com)., a 550-person business and technical consulting services in engineering, energy' and infrastructure firm, by Science Applications International Corp. (SAIC) (San Diego, CA; www.saic.com), a 45,000-person scientific, engineering, and technology applications company, would certainly have attracted attention.
