ALEXANDRIA, Va., Dec. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Systems Planning and Analysis, Inc. (SPA), a leading provider of strategic advisory, systems engineering, modeling and simulation, advanced analytics, industrial policy, and program management solutions to government and defense customers in the United States and its Allies, has acquired Arena Technologies LLC (Arena).
