G2X TAKE: While the intent of the $295M acquisition of Whitney, Bradley & Brown Inc (WBB) by Serco is clearly focused on gaining broader DOD capabilities and past performance, the news that this leading solutions provider for agencies including the Defense Health Agency (DHA), the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED) and the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) has been acquired, will and should draw interest from those Federal Health players who support MHS and VA today.
