VISTA ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGIES BUYS S.A. TECHNOLOGY DIVISION

Vista Engineering Technologies has acquired the key components of S.A. Technologies’ Remote Systems & Services Division. The acquisition of key personnel and intellectual property “combine synergistically with Vista Engineering’s technical depth and intimate knowledge of the weapons complex, nuclear industry, and environmental remediation challenges. This will allow Vista Engineering to expand upon the high quality engineering services with specialized remote system operations for various hazardous waste environments,” the company said in a press release issued yesterday. Vista Engineering has also signed an agreement with Kurion to provide engineering services for Kurion’s Modular Vitrification, In-Container Vitrification and Ion-Specific Media systems. “These two initiatives closing at the same time will create significant and synergistic opportunities for Vista Engineering to continue to grow both nationally and internationally. With the continued decline and uncertainly in federal budgets, it’s a good time to be adding more tools to our tool box,” Vista Engineering President and CEO Phillip Ohl said in the release.
