TYSONS CORNER, VA, January 9, 2020 — Todd Probert, vice president of C2, space and intelligence at Raytheon (NYSE: RTN), shared his impression of the merger between VMware (NYSE: VMW) and Pivotal Software, GovCon Wire reported Jan. 2.
He said in a statement released Dec. 30 that Raytheon, a mutual client of the two software vendors, was able to transform its approach to write programs for government and defense customers through their partnerships.
