US-based MAG Aerospace has agreed to purchase professional services company AASKI Technology (AASKI).

This transaction will add AASKI’s advanced engineering capabilities to MAG, thereby strengthening its position in the market.

The acquisition will allow MAG to provide command, control, computers, communications, cyber, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C5ISR) solutions to the US Government, its allies, and commercial customers worldwide.

AASKI CEO Bharat Parikh said: “When considering all our options, the one that stood out the most is the fastest-growing company serving the Department of Defense, MAG Aerospace, and the outstanding support that they provide to the warfighter. It is an honour to join such an exceptional company.”

Financial details of the transaction have not been disclosed.

It is expected to be completed by the second quarter of this year and marks the company’s first acquisition in 2020.
