Washington Harbour Partners, a private investment firm specializing in government and enterprise cyber and technology, has acquired Radome Services, a Portsmouth, New Hampshire-headquartered company that maintains and repairs ground-based systems that protect satellites and communications antennas at military sites.
Following the transaction, Radome Services rebranded as Outpost Mission Services, Washington Harbour said Tuesday.
Heather LaRowe will lead Outpost as president with Nate Walbridge serving as chief growth officer.
What Services Will Outpost Offer?
Outpost will provide entire lifecycle support for critical infrastructure that enable space operations and essential to national security missions. The company shared that its team of engineers will be available at all times to optimize performance and minimize downtime of clients’ assets.
“We have built a high conviction thesis in the criticality of ground stations as the terrestrial backbone for commercial and government space economies – and Outpost is a dedicated solutions provider to the physical lifecycle modernization of these national security assets,” stated Patrick Foley, principal at Washington Harbour.
“Outpost is assembling a best-in-class team of expert technicians and engineers dedicated to this mission,” LaRowe added. “We don’t view our work as routine maintenance – we are providing mission assurance where downtime isn’t an option.”
What Are Washington Harbour’s Previous Investments?
The launch of Outpost builds on Washington Harbour’s track record of investing in mission-critical technology companies. In late 2023, the firm acquired SIXGEN, which delivers red team operations and cyber assessment capabilities to defense and intelligence agencies and commercial customers.
The firm also made a growth investment in software engineering company Raft in 2024, providing capital to advance research and development and strengthen command-and-control capabilities for tactical environments.
