CES, a US-based engineering and environmental consulting and land surveying services provider has acquired Mohlin & Company, also based in the US.

Following the acquisition, the staff and president of consulting engineering firm Mohlin & Company will become part of CES.

Costain, an engineering solutions provider, has acquired Simulation Systems Limited (SSL) for £17m ($25.21m) on a debt-free / cash-free and normalised working capital basis.

"The staff and president of consulting engineering firm Mohlin & Company will become part of CES."

The consideration for the acquisition was drawn from Costain’s existing cash and debt facilities. The acquisition will make SSL an integral part of the Costain's infrastructure division in the current financial year.

SSL’s acquisition will expand the scope of Costain’s ability to deliver innovative technology-based solutions for major blue chip customers in energy, water and transportation. It will also cement Costain's presence in the market and will further enhance its hardware and software-based solutions for traffic monitoring and management.

Established in 1979, SSL offers technology-based solutions for the highways sector.
