New Joint Venture, Sandhill Global Partners, Combines 8(a) Agility with Proven Federal IT Expertise

Miami Technical Services and TSPi, a Division of Abt Global, Launch Sandhill Global Partners LLC. to Deliver Advanced Technology, Data, and Modernization Solutions to the U.S. Federal Government

Reston, VA  – Miami Technical Services (MTS), a tribally owned 8(a) technology solutions provider, and TSPi, a Division of Abt Global, a leading data analysis and consulting firm, have formed a new Mentor-Protégé joint venture, Sandhill Global Partners LLC. This collaboration combines deep federal expertise, cutting-edge data and visualization capabilities, and mission-focused advisory services to accelerate government transformation efforts. The name honors the Sandhill Crane, a sacred bird featured on the tribal seal - symbolizing stewardship, resilience, and the enduring strength of this partnership. 

“We are excited to launch Sandhill Global with a shared commitment to innovation and mission impact,” said David Poirier, President of Miami Federal, the parent of MTS. “Our complementary business alignments create a powerful focus in the Government space.” 

Under Sandhill Global, MTS brings the agility, responsiveness, and strategic advantages of an SBA-certified 8(a) small, disadvantaged business, while TSPi and Abt Global contribute decades in data-driven insights, program design, and data science for public sector clients. Sandhill Global is positioned to serve federal agencies with tailored solutions in technology integration, data engineering, advanced analytics, and strategic consulting.

"Sandhill Global is more than a partnership; it’s a force multiplier for federal missions," said Chris Long, SVP, TSPi, A Division of Abt Global. “Building on a decade of success working together, this new venture is uniquely positioned to help agencies move faster, spend smarter, and deliver measurable results.” 

Sandhill Global is now actively engaging with agencies across defense, health, and civilian sectors to help modernize legacy systems, harness actionable data, and implement technology strategies that drive long-term success.

Public Warning: Recruitment Phishing Scam Impersonating Abt Global

Abt Global has become aware of a phishing scheme targeting individuals with fraudulent interview requests and job offers. Abt’s secure IT systems and private applicant information have not been compromised; scammers are impersonating Abt employees, using the company name and branding to mislead and engage potential job seekers in fake recruitment processes. Scammers might reference real job openings or describe fake opportunities that generally match individuals’ professional backgrounds, with the goal of establishing communication and eventually obtaining private financial information to defraud people. The Federal Bureau of Investigation and Federal Trade Commission warn that employment scams such as this are a growing cyber threat. Abt urges anyone who is contacted about employment opportunities to exercise caution and know that: All communication from Abt Global will be from an Abt employee using the @abtglobal.com email domain (e.g., recruiting@abtglobal.com). We do not use third-party recruiters.   Abt Global recruiters will only schedule interviews for candidates who have applied for a position through our secure portal.  You may view your application status through the applicant portal on Abt Global Careers.  No corporate or IT systems at Abt are affected by this scam. The scammers are using Abt’s logo and employee names to impersonate the company. You can directly contact us at recruiting@abtglobal.com with any questions or concerns. Abt is committed to ensuring the safety and security of our community. We caution individuals to be vigilant in protecting personal data and vetting communication with new contacts from any company. Do not respond or provide any personal information if contacted by someone claiming to represent a company to which you did not submit a job application or profile.
