A&N Associates is a recognized leader in the small business community of Acquisition Management and Information Assurance (IA) providers to the Department of Defense, Civil Government, and commercial sector. We understand that our clients are faced with many challenges in defining and deploying acquisition and IA solutions. These challenges include evaluating various acquisition strategies and security technologies, aligning those strategies and technologies against program requirements, ensuring program risks are being mitigated, and implementing a solution within a defined budget. Therefore, we continue to focus on the development of program-oriented and technically sound acquisition and IA solutions using methods developed internally within A&N. We also continue to grow and diversify our staff, both in terms of expertise and experience, to ensure we provide the best and most appropriate level of consulting services to our clients. But most important, we continue to develop and honor long-term, trusting relationships with our clients, while still providing a balanced work environment for our staff.
