"This is an important strategic development which definitively reinforces Downer Engineering's position as New Zealand's largest provider of telecommunications ... infrastructure management services," Downer Engineering chief executive Wayne Nolan said. Downer Engineering will gain capability across residential and business communications technology through the acquisition, the company said. The transaction is expected to be completed late in May.
