Xpect Solutions Acquires Amivero to Bolster Federal Security Tech

The acquisition marks a strategic expansion for Xpect, a NewSpring Holdings portfolio company, as it seeks to scale its capabilities across four core disciplines: enterprise IT, cybersecurity, digital modernization, and data-driven AI. By absorbing Amivero’s specific experience in Homeland Security operations, the company aims to accelerate the transition of AI tools from experimental prototypes to operational, mission-critical systems.

Integration plans prioritize the preservation of the agile, customer-centric culture that both organizations claim as a competitive advantage. Yusuf Abdul-Salaam, CEO of Xpect Solutions, noted that the combined entity gains the scale necessary to tackle increasingly complex federal challenges while maintaining the accountability of a smaller firm. Amivero founder and CEO Olivia Trivisani Bowker, who will remain in a leadership role, emphasized that the decision was driven by a shared mission to protect critical infrastructure and support the existing workforce.

Financial advisory for the transaction was provided by Piper Sandler & Co. The deal is supported by a comprehensive advisory team including RSM, Aprio, Blank Rome, Baker Tilly, Morrison Foerster, and Alera Group.
