What We Do
Defense M&A Advisory and Brokering
Transactions and corporate strategy in the defense sector demand program-level truth. We provide it, on both sides of the deal.
Capabilities
Target identification
We screen the segments you care about for the companies that complement your pipeline, including the ones not yet for sale.
Pipeline evaluation
We stress-test a backlog and pipeline against the budget: program durability, recompete timing, and where the growth story comes from.
Customer insights
A data room will not tell you what the customer thinks. We call the customers who know the target and ask.
Acquisition strategy
Before the banker deck arrives, you need your own view of what a good deal looks like. We build it with you.
Growth strategy
Portfolio strategy and market-entry analysis grounded in where the Department of War is actually going, which is a different question from where the trade press says it is going.
International brokering
We find the foreign government and industry partners that can take you into a market abroad, and structure the partnership with them.
Our experts
Our team seamlessly augments yours, supporting initiatives spanning long-term strategic planning to individual capture efforts and deals. Cypress's approach fuses our team's experience and networks from distinguished careers across every facet of national security programs, budgets, and acquisitions with the firm's decades of institutional business mastery.
