A–T Solutions Inc., an anti- and counter-terrorism company with a large local presence, is moving into a bigger space in Spotsylvania County this summer.
It will renovate and expects to occupy by the end of August a 43,350-square-foot operations and warehouse facility at 5160 Lad Land Drive.
“The new warehouse will merge three existing warehouse facilities, allowing us to increase our capabilities and the efficiency of our operations,” Dennis Kelly, president and CEO of A–T Solutions, said in a prepared statement. “It will also have a tremendous positive impact on our employees and customers.”
The company currently has 164 employees at its operations and training center in Spotsylvania, and will hire four more this year. To apply, go to a-tsolutions.com.
The company anticipates beginning work on the facility in June. It will become the central location for A–T Solutions’ Mission Support Division, which is responsible for acquiring and testing specialized equipment and deploying in support of its government customers’ counter-terrorism needs worldwide.
The division also has an engineering and manufacturing component that builds more than 15,000 training devices per year and produces specialized mission-focused kits used by law enforcement, the Department of Defense, the Department of State, first responders and U.S. allies.
According to the company’s news release, the new, centralized facility is critical to supporting A–T Solutions’ continuing growth into new markets related to special operations, counter-narcotics, irregular warfare, transportation and customs and border protection.
The new location will offer office areas and secure inventory space, and be environmentally controlled throughout to ensure safer and more efficient operations. A new training classroom, demonstration room and showroom also will be added.
The deal for the new site was developed over the past two years with support from the Spotsylvania County Board of Supervisors and Economic Development Authority.
A–T Solutions Inc. was founded in Spotsylvania in 2002, and has been recognized by Inc. magazine as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America.
