How Will Aretum’s Acquisition of Veterans Engineering Strengthen Federal Mission Support?
Aretum said Thursday it will operate Veterans Engineering as a wholly owned subsidiary and integrate the latter’s systems, operations and delivery teams while retaining key leadership and technical personnel, including Wally Potts, vice president of solution delivery at VE, to ensure continuity for contracts and customers.
“This acquisition represents a strategic leap forward in our ability to support critical federal missions,” said Aretum CEO Rohit Gupta.
Veterans Engineering’s technical strength, track record in complex modernization programs, and commitment to mission outcomes are an ideal complement to Aretum’s capabilities. Together, we will accelerate innovation, expand value to our customers, and deepen service to agencies that protect and improve the lives of Americans — including our nation’s Veterans,” added Gupta, a 2025 Wash100 awardee.
The transaction marks Aretum’s latest acquisition backed by private equity firm Renovus Capital Partners. In 2023, Aretum acquired Miracle Systems and Artemis Consulting, expanding its federal IT and digital capabilities.
Aretum said the combination will allow it to continue to broaden capabilities in enterprise cybersecurity, digital transformation, cloud modernization and data-driven mission systems across intelligence, defense and civilian markets.
“I am happy to have Veterans Engineering transition to Aretum and its capable leadership team. I am excited that our VE team will continue to serve our existing customers with the same mission focus I have had as a Veteran for these last 20 years,” said Neil Snyder, president of Veterans Engineering.
