Systems Planning & Analysis (SPA), a leading global provider of data-driven analytical insights supporting complex national security programs and defense priorities, has acquired Intrepid, a leading engineering company with prime positions in the missiles and space, enterprise modernization, and aviation and mission support domains. Based in Huntsville, Alabama, Intrepid connects SPA to the top two mission priorities for the US Army: integrated battle management and enterprise modernization. As the lead Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance partner on the Integrated Battle Command System program since its inception, Intrepid has played a central role in shaping the Army’s warfighting posture for the foreseeable future, including strengthening homeland missile defense and countering offensive threats in the Indo-Pacific multi-domain battlespace. As well, Intrepid’s core capabilities in enterprise modernization deliver system agility, accelerate auditability, and enable multi-domain operations for a range of defense-based clients. SPA CEO Rich Sawchak commented, “We are thrilled to gain Intrepid’s highly respected and complementary approaches to supporting the warfighter with engineering excellence. This acquisition marks an important milestone in our strategic growth, broadening our client base to include a substantial presence in the US Army in addition to our already substantial presence in the US Navy, US Air Force, US Space Force, and Intelligence Community.”
On November 30, 2021, Intrepid received the Authorization to Operate (ATO) from the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) and National Industrial Security Program (NISP) Authorization Office (NAO) for its Tactical Innovation and Experimentation Laboratory (TIEL). The three-year accreditation is the maximum approval and gives Intrepid the authority to complete classified work for a variety of customers in the TIEL, located at the company’s headquarters in Cummings Research Park. “For a company the size of Intrepid to have this state-of-the-art classified lab is huge,” said Mark Statham, Intrepid Business Unit Leader for PEO Missiles and Space. “It is unheard of, and it is a capability that has only been seen in larger companies until now.” The TIEL integrates leading-edge agile methodologies with flexible and open-architecture technologies to rapidly create customizable, robust, and collaborative virtual test environments. It provides power, scalability, and flexibility to effectively support the near and far term needs of customers.
