Sister defence consultancies to trade under unified banner
Two sister defence consultancy firms whose clientele includes the Ministry of Defence (MOD) are to operate under a unified brand.
TP Group and Osprey Consulting Services will now trade under the names Sagentia Defence and Sagentia Aviation, respectively
Based at the Bristol and Bath Science Park in Emerson Green, the two companies are adopting the Sagentia brand as part of a broader national strategy that involves the repositioning of five UK-based science, technology, and regulatory consultancies under a single umbrella.
This development marks the strategic integration of more than 300 consultants with expertise spanning defence, aviation, medical, consumer, food and beverage, energy, and industrial markets.

“Now, with direct access to cross-disciplinary, multi-market knowledge, we can elevate this offering and deliver even greater value to our clients,” said Tom Rasmussen, managing director at Sagentia Defence and Sagentia Aviation
Sagentia believes that this unified approach, which brings together world-leading regulatory and technological expertise, fosters cross-market collaboration and accelerates innovation.
Sagentia Defence remains a trusted partner to leading defence organisations, contractors and technology providers.
The practice offers consultancy services on critical Ministry of Defence (MOD) programmes, collaborating with national government agencies and global contractors.
Sagentia Aviation continues its work with government agencies, regulatory authorities, equipment providers and airport and spaceport operators to address critical aviation challenges. It provides specialist technical and engineering support for safety-critical, highly regulated projects in both civil and military environments.
Tom Rasmussen, managing director, said: “Sagentia Defence and Sagentia Aviation each have a strong track record of meeting the stringent demands of their respective sectors.
“Now, with direct access to cross-disciplinary, multi-market knowledge, we can elevate this offering and deliver even greater value to our clients. The timing couldn’t be better as the defence and aviation industries face increasing, rapidly evolving challenges.”
Sagentia is the consultancy division of Science Group plc and is a global player in science, technology, and regulatory consultancy.
