KippsDeSanto & Co. is pleased to announce that its client, IronMountain Solutions, Inc. (“IMS” or the “Company”), has received an investment from Renovus Capital Partners (“Renovus”) and merged with Insight Technology Solutions.

Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Huntsville, AL, IMS is a trusted partner to Army aviation and space / missile defense communities, providing systems engineering, hardware engineering, logistics, and IT solutions to modernize and sustain Army aviation platforms. The Company has an enduring presence on some of the nation’s most high-profile rotorcraft and supports the design, development, and testing of advanced aviation capabilities.

The Company possesses a strong foundation of considerable experience and past performance with Army Program Executive Offices (“PEOs”) and Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Aviation & Missile Center (“AvMC”), providing solutions for key programs of record, such as the Future Vertical Lift (“FVL”) and implementation of Modular Open Systems Approach (“MOSA”) architecture. IMS’ deep understanding of the mission and communities it serves enables the Company to proactively address technical engineering challenges in a rapidly evolving threat environment.

Renovus’ investment will support IMS’ initiatives to strengthen its capabilities, invest in new technologies, and pursue strategic acquisitions that enhance its competitive position in the rapidly evolving technology services landscape. This partnership will also provide the Company with the necessary resources to further enhance its robust operational efficiency and strengthen its client relationships.
