McLean-based consulting firm Guidehouse added itself to the ongoing wave of mergers & acquisitions Friday, procuring Navigant Consulting Inc. (NYSE: NCI) in a $1.1 billion deal that will broaden the combined company’s reach in both public and private sectors.
The buy marks a significant first acquisition for Guidehouse, which formed from a 2018 spinoff of PriceWaterhouseCoopers' public sector practice and remains a portfolio company of New York-based private equity firm Veritas Capital.
