Video Message from
ATI President
 

With a sharp focus on the future, ATI is rapidly growing to meet the ever-increasing demands of clients and partners while sustaining a tradition of delivering heroic customer service and providing innovative R&D Collaboration leadership to answer significant national challenges, including:

  • The development of advanced technologies and improved capabilities that protect our service men and women and drive down the costs of the weapons systems that they operate;
  • Innovative research to reduce the nearly two million hospital-acquired infections that result in 90,000 deaths and cost the U.S. $5 billion annually;
  • The development and deployment of technologies to enhance the quality and reduce the spiraling cost of healthcare, while improving information accessibility for the healthcare community;
  • The delivery of breakthrough improvements in manufacturing capability to create a strong domestic economy in the global marketplace.

Clients and partners alike will benefit from ATI’s neutral collaboration leadership and management role that provides:

  • Comprehensive R&D program leadership and management, fostering increased research focus by insulating researchers from the day-to-day program tasks;
  • A commitment to transitioning technologies from the research lab to the hands of the operator;
  • A disciplined, yet customizable, approach to collaborative R&D management that simultaneously reduces risk and improves flexibility for both our clients and partners;
  • Practical economic and social benefits of new technologies.

Our partners and clients repeatedly cite our highly creative, intelligent, versatile and committed employees as key factors in their success. ATI is investing in its people, tools and processes to create a winning workplace that assures positive technological and business outcomes for our clients and partners alike.

Since 1990, ATI has led collaborations of world-class scientists and engineers from premier companies, universities, and government agencies to define technology roadmaps and research portfolios matched to business demands that provide the requisite resources to solve shared challenges. First, as a division of SCRA, and for the last decade as a private 501c(3) non-profit company, ATI has helped organize and manage national and international collaborative efforts to develop and implement innovative solutions to challenges facing industry and government stakeholders in manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, maritime, metals, and healthcare industries.
