Parsons COO: OGSystems acquisition slated to include all employees and leadership team

Parsons' acquisition of OGSystems is not meant to result in cost savings, the chief operating officer of Parsons told Inside Defense today.

Parsons intends to retain all of the company's employees, which number about 400, as well as Garrett Pagon, OGSystems' chief executive, according to Carey Smith.

Smith told Inside Defense Pagon will be reporting to her.

She said the acquisition will particularly bolster Parsons' presence at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency.

Pagon told Inside Defense during the same call the acquisition will help OGSystems move into new agencies, pointing to the Defense Information Systems Agency and the Army.
