“Perspecta will fill a unique market position in the government contracting space by offering a full spectrum of complementary capabilities, leveraging a strong track record of performance and innovation, and providing access to an unmatched team of highly skilled employees,” said DXC Technology chairman, president and CEO, Mike Lawrie, who will serve as the chairman of Perspecta upon the close of the proposed merger. “With a diversified customer base, Perspecta will be an innovative leader in addressing the evolving mission needs of public sector customers.”

“In selecting the new company’s name and brand, it was important to represent the optimism and excitement around the unique value that this combined entity will deliver to government customers,” said Vencore’s president and CEO, Mac Curtis, who will serve as CEO of Perspecta. “The name Perspecta does just that. With a keen focus on innovation and a deep understanding of our customers, we will passionately pursue smart, creative and collaborative approaches to solving the nation’s most complex challenges.”

Until the completion of the merger, DXC USPS, Vencore and KeyPoint will continue to operate under their current leadership structures as three separate organizations.
