Ati, Inc.

Ati, Inc., doing business as Colimore Architects, is a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Columbia, Maryland, that provides architectural, engineering, environmental consulting, and facilities management services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (90% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor on facilities and environmental programs. The company is Subcontinent Asian American-owned, a Subchapter S Corporation, and self-certified as a HUBZone joint venture participant; it competes predominantly on full-and-open and total small business set-aside vehicles, with recurring 8(a) sole-source awards in the architectural and laboratory-design space.

Ati's federal footprint centers on three customer clusters. The Department of State's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations dominates by award count (184 awards, $29.9 million combined potential value) with building automation system preventive maintenance and facilities management at U.S. diplomatic posts worldwide—representative work includes $218,079 for building automation system preventative maintenance at the U.S. Embassy in Turkmenistan, $354,641 for air handling unit preventive maintenance at the U.S. Embassy in Djibouti, and recurring $75,000–$86,000 contracts for BAS maintenance at embassies in Bulgaria, Mexico, Pakistan, and Equatorial Guinea. The Department of Health and Human Services' National Institutes of Health anchors the second tier: the National Cancer Institute generated 53 awards valued at $11.1 million for laboratory design, post-design services, and renovation support ($70,480 for cold room conversion design at NCI's Bethesda facility, $186,330 for 3N Corridor Head and Neck Labs design and post-design, $322,431 for Building 41A Microscopy Facility design), while NIH Construction awarded a $400 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract on June 24, 2026, for Construction Quality Management and Commissioning Services through June 2032. The National Archives and Records Administration, Department of Energy, and Department of the Treasury round out the active set with environmental testing, industrial hygiene, and air monitoring work. Concentration on State Department work is notable: the top five funding agencies account for 67% of awards, but when ranked by potential value, NIH Construction's $400 million ceiling and FHWA's $147.2 million in eight awards shift the dollars significantly toward research and transportation infrastructure.

Ati holds a seat on the GSA-administered OASIS+ Small Business Multiple Award Contract (ceiling $999,999,999,999 through December 18, 2029) and operates under a $65 million Federal Highway Administration Technical Support Services IDIQ for Infrastructure Engineering Laboratories (awarded September 13, 2024, total small business set-aside) supporting nondestructive evaluation, geotechnical engineering, hydraulics, and structures laboratories at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center in Columbia, Maryland. It also holds a $48 million Federal Highway Administration Infrastructure Materials Laboratories Support IDIQ (awarded January 19, 2023, through January 18, 2028) for pavement testing facility operations and architectural consulting. A $1 million National Archives and Records Administration BPA for indoor air quality and environmental testing services (awarded January 31, 2024, through January 30, 2029) has generated six BPA calls totaling approximately $32.6 million in cumulative ceiling values for mold testing, indoor air quality sampling, and water quality work at NARA's Berwyn Heights and Suitland, Maryland facilities. The $60 million U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Small Business Environmental Remediation Services IDIQ (awarded August 8, 2022, through August 7, 2027, total small business set-aside) supports DERP, Superfund, BRAC, and FUSRAP cleanup projects in EPA Region 2 and the Northwestern Division footprint. Named parent vehicles under which Ati places task orders include SAQMMA15D0030 (58 task orders, $3.3 million), SAQMMA14D0077 (44 task orders, $4 million), 140D0420D0005 (51 task orders, $3.1 million), and 19AQMM19D0137 (24 task orders, $4.5 million).

Activity has grown steadily: 22 awards in 2022 increased to 39 in 2025, with 9 awards in the first part of 2026. Eighteen awards (combined potential value $7.3 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and carry recompete exposure. SCI-reported invoiced revenue on federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $19.5 million across FY2022–FY2025, with FY2022 at $4.1 million (12.3 FTEs), FY2023 at $3.7 million (13.4 FTEs), FY2024 at $5.9 million (18.9 FTEs), and FY2025 at $5.8 million (32.1 FTEs), reflecting an expanding workforce on federal services work. Government-paid hourly rates on prime SCI contracts run from a 10th percentile of $72.84/hour to a median of $142.06/hour and a 90th percentile of $345.98/hour, positioning the company in the skilled technical and professional-engineer range. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subs averaged 18% of total contractor hours, with 28 named subcontractors engaged. The company's GSA Multiple Award Schedule labor portfolio spans 23 categories ranging from Custodian at $40.83/hour to Senior Research Engineer/Scientist at $273.88/hour, requiring no security clearances.

Ati operates as a prime on most work but subcontracts to larger integrators for specific missions. Named prime contractors the vendor subcontracts under include Dayton Group Inc. (industrial hygiene, asbestos abatement monitoring, environmental training, and laboratory support services across State Department diplomatic facility remediation worldwide), Dgi-Ati JV LLC (construction management at Arlington National Cemetery, facilities operations support at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, and staffing for emergency management and telecommunications roles), and Ack3 Consulting LLC (A&E expertise under the NIH Engineering and Technical Support Services contract). Recent subcontract work in FY2025 includes industrial hygiene and safety engineering services to the Department of Energy Office of Industrial Hygiene and Safety, asbestos and environmental laboratory support, EPA AHERA asbestos inspector training, construction management at Fort Buchanan, Puerto Rico, and building automation system support services worldwide.

The corporate structure reflects capacity-building through subsidiary formation. Ati, Inc. is the parent, with nine named subsidiaries: Ati-Hgl 8(A) JV LLC, ATI-Envirosmart JV LLC, Ati-Endyna JV LLC, Colimore Architects Inc. (a Subchapter S Corporation and woman-owned small business), Act II Services LLC, Atesi Services LLC, Ati-Cti JV LLC, Act Services LLC, and Highway Technology Partners LLC—all minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged businesses with Subcontinent Asian American ownership. Each subsidiary carries the same Subcontinent Asian American and SDB certifications, suggesting a multi-vehicle strategy to manage workload, achieve set-aside eligibility across distinct contract pools, and align with customer vehicle caps. The parent company is listed as Iveco Sued - West Nutzfahrzeuge GMBH, a foreign-owned German manufacturer, though the operational control and federal contracting posture remain clearly U.S.-based and minority-owned.

Additional capabilities include interior design; planning; building automation systems, GIS services; technical staffing; security design; and demolition/decommissioning.
