Cohort is a group of complementary companies providing comprehensive advisory and technical services across the defence, security and associated sectors. Cohort comprises of SCS and MASS.
Shared vision
In 2005, Stanley Carter and Nick Prest independently arrived at a shared vision for a federation of companies in the defence and security technical services market, based on the following core values:
- Independent
- Expert
- Practically oriented
- Flexible
- Cost-effective
- Growing
We believe that the accessible UK market for such services is large and offers scope for expansion, whilst a portion of the supplier base is fragmented and provides opportunities for consolidation. Cohort seeks to make further targeted acquisitions of complementary businesses.
MASS is an independent UK systems house with a strong defence and aerospace market focus. The company is based near St Neots in Cambridgeshire with a second facility in Lincoln.
MASS offers specialist skills in four business areas:
- Electronic warfare
- Specialist managed services
- Communications and electronic systems
- Information systems
In addition, MASS offers re-design and support of older in-service systems plus technical and operational advisory services across all four business areas.
MASS has specific experience in managing and providing services in highly secure areas of government and industry.
