In addition, Tetra Tech is integrating Amyx's cybersecurity services and technology applications into its water, environment and sustainable infrastructure operations, Batrack indicated.

Amyx also is expected to help Tetra Tech expand its cybersecurity, data analytics, digital transformation and agile software development solutions for its government and commercial customers.

A Closer Look at Tetra Tech and Amyx

Tetra Tech provides consulting and engineering services to government and commercial organizations around the world. It helps these organizations address problems across several areas, including:
