In 1996, A-TEK was founded with a clear vision: to bridge the gap between scientific expertise and digital innovation in support of critical federal missions. Nearly three decades later, that vision has evolved into a trusted partnership with U.S. government agencies across public health, law enforcement, and national security. As a woman-owned small business headquartered in McLean, Virginia, A-TEK has grown from a niche IT services provider into a comprehensive digital transformation partner, combining deep domain expertise with cutting-edge technology solutions.
Today, A-TEK operates at the intersection of mission and innovation, delivering a full spectrum of capabilities including cloud modernization, cybersecurity, agile engineering, and data intelligence. The company's unique strength lies in its dual competency - bringing together scientifically trained staff and high-end digital services to solve complex federal challenges. Through its DigitalShift™ framework, A-TEK helps agencies embrace the future of technology while maintaining the rigorous standards required for mission-critical operations. With 16 locations nationwide and a team of 200-500 professionals, A-TEK continues to expand its impact, recently earning recognition as a 2025 Inc. 5000 honoree for sustained growth and innovation.
