Moore Kingston Smith advises CACI on Datalynx acquisition

Moore Kingston Smith has advised CACI Limited on its acquisition of Datalynx, marking the fifth transaction the firm has supported for the technology provider.

CACI Limited, the UK subsidiary of US-based CACI International, has acquired Datalynx to expand its data and cloud migration services. 

Founded in 2002 and based in Hertfordshire, Datalynx provides secure data services to UK government bodies, including the Home Office and police services.

The deal follows a series of previous acquisitions supported by Moore Kingston Smith, including IdentityE2E in April 2025 and Rowe IT Holding Limited in June 2024. 

Moore Kingston Smith provided financial and tax due diligence for the transaction, led by partner Mike Orton and director Tom Acland.

Headquartered in London, CACI employs approximately 1,500 people across the UK, Europe, and India. The acquisition is intended to strengthen CACI’s capabilities in managing data within sensitive and high-security environments.

Sanjeev Gandhi, corporate development and M&A director at CACI, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Datalynx and their leadership team and colleagues to CACI. Their strong position within the Home Office, particularly across policing, is a testament to both their capability and calibre.

“As always, Moore Kingston Smith has been a crucial partner in helping us complete this transaction with confidence. We value their financial expertise, attention to detail, hands-on approach and their commitment to ensuring every aspect of the deal is thoroughly considered.”

Orton, corporate finance partner at Moore Kingston Smith, added: “It’s always rewarding to work with CACI as they deliver on their strategic growth ambitions. Our long-standing relationship, built on mutual trust, has become a cornerstone of their acquisition strategy. We are proud to continue supporting CACI as it expands its portfolio through targeted acquisitions.”
