Washington Post (01/09/13) Marjorie Censer

Staffing company Kavaliro is set to announce today that it is acquiring a 58-employee business from Fairfax, VA-based Salient Federal Solutions, giving the Orlando-based company its first office in the Washington, DC, area. The unit produces about $10 million in revenue providing Fannie Mae with support employees. Under the acquisition, Kavaliro will acquire all contractual resources and staff affiliated with the Fannie Mae program. Mark Moore, president of Kavaliro, says his firm hopes to leverage the Salient acquisition to win more staffing work in the Washington area.

“I personally think that staffing … is going to continue to be on the increase,” says Moore. “Companies are going to be hesitant to continue to hire on full-time staff … . They’re going to be looking for help with specific projects and the ability to on-board and off-board based on those projects.”
