Debt and equity financing for Defense & Government Services businesses
Our Purpose
We are a long-term capital partner.
From intelligence analytics to cyber defense to specialized manufacturing, DCG provides flexible capital solutions to businesses that provide mission-critical products and services to the U.S. Government.
Our Value Add
We are strategic investors.
DCG partners with exceptional sponsor and management teams to accelerate growth. Our value-add starts with our team, which includes former leaders from the White House, Pentagon, CIA, NSA, DIA, and DHS, as well as experienced operators who have built and scaled businesses.
Our Edge
We understand your business.
Flexible Capital: From debt to equity, we provide capital solutions tailored to government contractors.
Proven Track Record: Our team has invested in and helped dozens of companies grow and ultimately be acquired.
Cleared Personnel: DCG team members maintain TS/SCI security clearances, which allow us to work with companies that do the most sensitive work for the U.S. Government.
Flexible Capital Solutions
We provide capital solutions tailored to the unique needs of each company.
As a family-office, DCG can provide patient, tailored capital. This gives us the flexibility to pursue non-traditional opportunities, think long-term, and be creative.
At the same time, our industry specialization allows DCG to move quickly and provide highly competitive terms. Where other investors shy away from the complexities of government contracting or working with the military or Intelligence Community, we lean in.

Senior or Subordinated Term Debt
First Lien or Second Lien Term Debt
Cash Flow Lending
Unitranche Debt
