ASGN Inc. acquires Fairfax consulting firm

Richmond-based ASGN Inc., a Fortune 1000 provider of IT and professional services, acquired Fairfax-based Enterprise Resource Performance Inc., a health care consulting and data analytics firm that delivers federal healthcare transformation services, ASGN announced Thursday.

ERPi’s 250 consultants will become part of ECS, ASGN’s Fairfax-based federal contracting subsidiary.

ERPi was founded in 2001 and provides IT solutions, data analytics, artificial intelligence/machine learning and health care domain expertise to government clients, including the Department of Veterans Affairs, the National Institutes of Health, the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, Indian Health Services, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Army.

“Joining ECS is an incredible next step for ERPi. Our customers will not only benefit from ECS’s deep enterprise resources and program-level experience, but also from their digital transformation, cybersecurity, data and [artificial intelligence] solutions. We are thrilled to have this opportunity to join the ECS and the broader ASGN platform,” said ERPi President Bill Hummel in a statement.

ECS President George Wilson said, “The acquisition of ERPi deepens ECS’s capabilities across a number of exciting solution areas and provides key contract vehicles that will bolster our current healthcare industry offerings. We are thrilled to bring their team’s experience to new and existing customers across industry and government.”

This marks the second acquisition in as many months for ASGN. The company bought Reston-based Indrasoft in July.
