KippsDeSanto & Co. advises SIMS Software on its combination with TechnoMile in a transaction led by Capitol Meridian Partners
KippsDeSanto & Co. is pleased to announce that its client, SIMS Software (“SIMS” or the “Company”), has combined with TechnoMile in a transaction led by Capitol Meridian Partners (“CMP”).
SIMS is a leading provider of industrial security information management solutions, supporting organizational compliance with complex regulatory and audit requirements for over 40 years. As the system of record for the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (“NISPOM”), SIMS enables defense contractors and government agencies to track personnel clearances, manage access to secure facilities, and mitigate insider threats. By joining forces with TechnoMile, SIMS will integrate its deep security expertise into a unified, AI-enabled platform, creating a comprehensive solution that spans the entire government contracting lifecycle, from pre-award business development to post-award compliance.
This combination comes at a critical time as the defense industrial base seeks to modernize their digital architecture to meet stringent cybersecurity and mission-critical requirements. CMP’s investment facilitates the combination of SIMS’ proven security solutions with TechnoMile’s transformative AI-enabled cloud solutions. This integration delivers a first-of-its-kind, end-to-end platform that provides the intelligence and operational edge to maximize impact on government missions.
We believe this transaction highlights several key trends in the government technology and compliance software M&A market:
-Continued demand for category-leading software assets that possess "sticky" customer bases and serve as a leading system of record for mission-critical regulatory compliance;
-Strong investment focus on the "nexus" of government, specifically targeting technology providers that solve the complex administrative and security burdens inherent in the government contracting lifecycle; and
-Persistent demand for proven, scalable software platforms that are positioned to benefit from increased government spending on cybersecurity, insider threat detection, and modernization.
