From their news release, which says DeCample will be responsible for “daily management” and Noble and Tennille strategic directors:

“We represent a broad range of organizations in Washington D.C., in state capitols and internationally,” Noble said. “Clients constantly approach us with perceived political problems that are actually communications challenges outside the halls of government. Aarch Communications will provide these clients with the full range of services they need.”
