From its inception, the company has been rooted in a commitment to excellence and a deep sense of responsibility for the nation's safety and security. What started as a professional and technical services provider has evolved into one of the largest and most respected employee-owned companies in the United States. This transition to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) was a pivotal moment in the company's history, becoming a majority-owned ESOP in 1997 and fully 100% employee-owned since 2015. This ownership model is not just a financial structure; it's the very fabric of the company's culture. It instills a unique sense of pride and accountability in every employee-owner, fostering a collaborative environment where everyone is dedicated to the shared goal of customer success.

Headquartered in Chantilly, Virginia, just outside of Washington, D.C., AMERICAN SYSTEMS has steadily grown its capabilities and reach over five decades. The company's unwavering focus on its customers' missions has earned it a position of trust within the Department of Defense, the Intelligence Community, and various federal civilian agencies. This trust is built on a foundation of quality, integrity, and a can-do attitude that permeates every project and partnership. The company's growth is a direct result of the dedication of its people, who are motivated to exceed requirements and maintain the highest levels of service. By delivering a comprehensive suite of strategic solutions in areas like Information Technology, Engineering and Analysis, Test and Evaluation, and Program Mission Support, AMERICAN SYSTEMS continues to play a crucial role in addressing the complex challenges facing the nation. Its story is one of sustained growth, unwavering dedication to its mission, and the empowerment of its employee-owners who are all invested in the collective success of the company and its customers.
