Proteus Capital Solutions Announces Sale of KeyLogic Technologies to System One

KeyLogic will continue to operate independently under GAP Solutions, a System One Company

POTOMAC, Md., Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Proteus Capital Solutions, a private equity firm focused on the lower middle-market of the aerospace, defense, and government services ("ADG") sector, announced the sale of KeyLogic Technologies to System One, a portfolio company of Oaktree. Acquired by Proteus, through an affiliated entity, in 2018 in partnership with CEO Jeannette Lee, KeyLogic is an established provider of analytic and digital technology solutions to leading data-centric customers across the Federal market, supporting critical missions in the energy, commerce, and defense sectors. KeyLogic will operate independently under GAP Solutions, a System One company, and will continue to deliver its technology-based services at a greater scale and complexity. Financial terms of the sale were not disclosed.

KeyLogic brings System One a portfolio of long-term clients from the Department of Energy, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Patent and Trademark Office, and other Federal Civilian and Department of Defense agencies. KeyLogic's expertise servicing federal organizations with expert R&D technical support, digital transformation, cyber security, and advanced analytics, will compliment System One's overall service offerings and strategic customer base, resulting in increased value for the combined business' customers in the future.

"KeyLogic is a tremendous business with a proven track record of success. Under the Proteus umbrella, KeyLogic has grown from a small business IT and data analytics services provider into a critical, value-added partner to the DOE and other federal agencies, winning full and open competitions repeatedly," said Pierre Chao, Founder and Managing Partner of Proteus Capital Solutions. "We are very proud of the KeyLogic team's accomplishments and are excited about the opportunities the employees will have as part of System One".

Jeannette Lee, KeyLogic's CEO, echoed Pierre's comments, stating "Leading KeyLogic through its transformation from small business to a large, full & open competitor has been an honor. I am extremely proud of the team and know that the business will thrive with the backing of System One's strong resources."

"By combining forces with KeyLogic, our organizations can leverage unique capabilities and customer relationships to support even more significant growth and success than each company could achieve individually," said Troy Gregory, Chairman and CEO of System One.

"We are thrilled to join forces with System One and GAP Solutions. This strategic acquisition positions our organization for growth, harnessing our collective strengths to reach new heights," said Ken Bissett, CAO of KeyLogic.
