Flatter, Inc. appoints Brian McIntyre as Chief Growth Officer to lead strategic expansion. Fredericksburg, VA - 2 March 2026 Flatter, Inc., a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) delivering mission-critical support services to the federal government, today announced the appointment of Brian McIntyre as Chief Growth Officer (CGO). In this newly established role for Flatter, Brian will lead enterprise growth strategy, business development, and strategic capture initiatives across the company, driving ambitious growth goals. Headquartered in Fredericksburg, Virginia, Flatter provides Mission Acceleration, Digital Transformation, and Workforce Development & Readiness support in a rapidly evolving Federal landscape for customers including the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Flatter is leaning into technology and innovation on every front and has plans to expand AI Capabilities across multiple Federal customers through its proprietary conversational workflow and learning platform, PersonaOPPs. Equipped with contract vehicles such as Polaris, OASIS+, GsA MAS, and multiple agency level BPAs, Brian seeks to grow Flatter's capability through missions that matter to its workforce. Brian, a Navy Veteran, joins Flatter following more than a decade of executive leadership at Sev1Tech, where he most recently served as Executive Vice President of Growth. During his tenure, he played a central role in scaling the company's federal business through expert Federal solutioning, always leading with innovative approaches to further his customers' missions. "Brian comes from a company that has been an aspirational comp of Flatter for a long time" says Brittany Chiang, Flatter's CEO. "We are honored that he has decided to spend the next phase of his career leading change at Flatter. What I am most excited about is the cultural alignment Brian brings, not only at our headquarters but with the way Flatter supports our customers' missions." Brian brings not only a track record of success, but of leading with integrity where people always come first. Prior to Sev1Tech, Brian held leadership roles in both government and industry, serving more than 21 years in the U.S. Navy.
ERT, a Macquarie Capital-backed company, has acquired Sev1Tech, a digital modernisation and IT transformation partner supporting space, defence and national security initiatives. Financial terms were not disclosed. The acquisition expands ERT's capabilities in delivering secure, mission-aligned digital solutions to government customers in regulated environments. Sev1Tech specialises in helping government organisations modernise legacy systems, enhance cyber resilience and accelerate digital adoption across complex enterprise environments. The combined entity will serve customers including the US Space Force, offering expanded IT modernisation, cloud, cybersecurity and engineering services. Sev1Tech has been partnered with DFW Capital Partners since 2019. KippsDeSanto & Co. served as exclusive financial adviser to Sev1Tech on the transaction.
ERT sets new course for itself with Sev1Tech acquisition. Stay Connected Find opportunities - and win them. February 24, 2026 08:00 AM ET Earth Resources Technology is roughly tripling in size and bolstering its footprint at Space Force, an agency often seen as leaning forward into newer and more agile acquisition approaches. Earth Resources Technology was born in 1993 to focus on providing space-focused geotechnical and environmental services to the federal government, work that remains very much in the company's DNA. But in acquiring Sev1Tech with Macquarie Capital's support, ERT is also setting out a new course for itself in many respects as the company now can say it has a footprint in both the civilian and defense sides of the market. ERT's purchase of Sev1Tech announced Tuesday gives the acquirer an increased presence with Space Force, which only was stood up in 2019 and was a target customer in the search for other companies to buy. "The ground station things that we do are a direct connection, and we get them closer to the satellite," ERT's chief executive Mark Lee told us. "They get us closer to pushing the data out, so it's really a really a nice fit there." ERT is roughly tripling in size to around 1,600 employees with the addition of Sev1Tech, which is bringing around 1,100 people to the equation. Lee said ERT is looking to use this as an opportunity for creating a new organization because there are "things they do better than us" and the reverse is true as well. "It is one company buying another, but it's also these teams coming together," Lee said. "We want to bring an approach to this where the best process wins, best idea wins, and come out of this with something that is not exactly like either company was before, which allows us to build on the strengths that both companies have." ERT's steps to land on Sev1Tech as the right acquisition target for itself is an example of how companies look at the world changing around them and decide to change themselves. Macquarie Capital's acquisition of ERT in 2024 both marked a new chapter for the company and an opportunity for its leadership team to figure out where they should go next. Three years prior to that, ERT booked a potential $699.6 million contract with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to help operate IT and antenna systems on the ground. Having a franchise program like that can be both a boon and a concern though, according to chief executive Lee. "We love NOAA as a customer, they're an awesome customer, but they make up a lot of our revenue and as we all went through last year, that was kind of scary having all your eggs in mostly in one basket," Lee said. Of course, Lee's reference to last year speaks to how the entire public sector landscape changed rapidly amid the Trump administration's push to reshape it. In deciding what's next for ERT, Lee and his executive team colleagues decided the company needed to diversify its revenue profile and that meant adding new customers. That naturally meant looking at acquisitions, of which Lee said ERT remained active even while the GovCon industry adjusted to a new pace and cadence. Sev1Tech's portfolio with the Space Force includes a potential $188 million contract booked in 2024 to help expand a global network that transports data between the U.S. military and its international partners. Also known as meshOne, this terrestrial network is designed to link platforms and other systems that are part of the Defense Department's larger connectivity vision commonly called JADC2. Lee said ERT has been working with Space Force through some of the company's weather-related efforts at NOAA, but Sev1Tech's brand at Space Force was far more established than that of ERT. ERT's move to bolster its Space Force presence also means a closer look at an agency that Lee described as "less stuck in their ways about how they buy." Since its inception, Space Force has embraced agile acquisition models such as Other Transaction Authority agreements and other commercial-like contracting approaches. These are tools the Trump administration is pushing agencies to increase the use of as part of larger efforts to overhaul and modernize government acquisition. "Space Force is the vanguard living up to that way of buying, which is exciting for us because we're impatient, we're ready to go, we want to get going," Lee said. "They're leaning forward from that perspective, which I think is exciting." KippsDeSanto & Co. acted as the exclusive financial adviser to Sev1Tech for this transaction. The sale of Sev1Tech marks an exit for DFW Capital Partners, which acquired the company in 2019.
Hector Collazo, former Sev1Tech and Agile Defense executive, has assumed the newly created chief technology officer post at IPTA, a federal information technology and professional services firm.
As a young adult, Greg Porter was pretty convinced that he did not want to go into a career in technology — largely because his mom taught coding classes at his local high school. “I was really opposed to going into technology because my mom was the technology teacher at the high school I went to, and like any teenager, I did everything I could to avoid taking a class by my mom,” Porter told Technical.ly. “So a career path in technology just was not in my future, at least that’s what I thought.”. Instead, Porter went to college and majored in business administration, but realized pretty quickly that it was not how he wanted to spend the rest of his life. Stuck on what to do next, he dropped out and took a job at a furniture store. While he was working there, the store was in need of some IT work, and as someone that had been around computers his whole life, he offered to help
