Fuentez Systems Concepts, Inc. is an Employee-Owned, Information Technologies 8(a) company with 20 years experience in providing advanced communication and computing products and services to commercial and Federal markets.

Recently, Fuentez announced that it has been acquired by Stanley Associates, Inc. (Stanley), for an undisclosed price. Stanley is an information technology and professional services provider to the U.S. Federal Government. This acquisition will combine the network engineering, software and technical support capabilities of Stanley with the advanced systems engineering, production and integration expertise of FSC to more effectively address the expanding needs of both companies.

"Our country's need for cutting edge technologies to meet the ever-growing threats to our security is driving tremendous requirements in our industry," says Ray Fuentez, founder of Fuentez Systems Concepts. "By aligning ourselves with a dynamic and growing partner like Stanley — who shares our cultural values and vision of the future — we put ourselves in a much better position to meet those requirements and better serve our country."

Stanley has prior year revenues of $143 million and provides FSC with access to additional services in the areas of network, software, outsourcing, enterprise architecture, and technical advisory solutions. Since 1989, Stanley revenues and profits have grown by an average of thirty-three percent each year, with nearly eighty percent of historical organic growth attributable to repeat business. The company is employee-owned with nearly 1,200 employees at locations across the globe and at company offices nationwide. They are headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia.

"I am personally thrilled at the opportunity that this acquisition affords the employees and customers of FSC," says FSC's former president Brian Alderson. "There will be significant growth opportunities for our employees as part of a larger company, yet they will still have ownership through an ESOP, as they have at FSC. Our customers will see the same attention to customer service as they did with FSC, but we will now have a greater number of service offerings and a bigger talent pool to pull from. And this strategic move will provide greater responsiveness and depth to our already proven customer-oriented solutions."
