What AI Signal Research does

AI Signal Research, Inc. (ASRI) is a private U.S. government contractor founded in 1990 and headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, providing advanced technical services to the aerospace and defense communities. The company operates with 251–500 employees and serves the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, NASA, and Missile Defense Agency, with additional field presence in Dahlgren, Virginia, and operating geographies spanning Alabama, California, Texas, Florida, Washington, and Virginia. ASRI's leadership team is led by Chairman and CEO Anthony Jones, President Jay Vaughan (effective January 2026), and CFO Gena Flynn.

The company's portfolio centers on test and evaluation (T&E) services for complex defense and aerospace systems, delivered through five service lines — Test Services & Range Operations, Engineering & Test Solutions, Emerging Technologies Support (including AI/ML-enabled T&E, adaptive methodologies, and LVC test solutions), Logistics Support, and Acquisition & Program Management Support — together with its proprietary PC-Signal® vibration analysis software product family, which originated under a NASA SBIR contract for Space Shuttle Main Engine testing. Technical differentiation rests on cleared personnel, ISO 9001:2015 certification, FAR and DCAA compliance, and an AI/ML-augmented analytics layer applied to vibration, signal, and test data.

Commercially, ASRI generates revenue almost exclusively through U.S. Government contract vehicles — GSA OASIS Pool 3 & 4, GSA MAS, SeaPort-NxG, and direct prime awards — with the 5-year, $910 million Redstone Test and Engineering Services (RTES) contract won in February 2024 through the Joint Technical Solutions joint venture with Astrion representing the largest single award. The company pursues an enterprise field-sales motion targeting programs of record through acquisition milestone and T&E Master Plan support, with pricing not publicly disclosed and customer access mediated entirely through federal procurement channels. PC-Signal® licenses to NASA, Dow, Blue Origin, Pratt & Whitney, and Aerojet Rocketdyne provide a small commercial overlay to an otherwise government-monetized book of business.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Astrion: Astrion is ASRI's JV partner in Joint Technical Solutions and a direct peer in defense aerospace T&E, systems engineering, and IT services supporting Army, Air Force, and NASA programs. It is the single most comparable peer given the strategic and operational overlap.
• Modern Technology Solutions, Inc. (MTSI): MTSI is a closely held defense engineering and T&E services firm with comparable customer set (DoD, missile defense, aerospace primes) and similar revenue profile. Its independent ownership and niche positioning make it a clean like-for-like comparison to ASRI.
• DCS Corporation: DCS is a defense engineering and T&E services contractor with strong Army and aerospace exposure. Similar employee scale and federal services orientation make it a close operating-model peer to ASRI.
• Torch Technologies: Torch Technologies is a Huntsville-based defense contractor with deep Army aviation and missile T&E roots, directly competing with ASRI in the Redstone Arsenal ecosystem and on CCDC AvMC, AvMC, and SMDC programs.
• COLSA Corporation: COLSA is a Huntsville, AL-headquartered defense contractor providing engineering, T&E, and IT services to DoD and intelligence customers. Strong geographic and customer overlap with ASRI makes it a direct competing peer.

Broad incumbents

• KBR: KBR is a large public defense and aerospace services prime with government T&E, engineering, and range operations across DoD and NASA. KBR is a broad incumbent that competes with ASRI on larger task orders but is not a pure T&E niche specialist.
• Leidos: Leidos is a top-tier defense prime with significant T&E and range operations work, including legacy Dynetics capabilities in Huntsville. It competes with ASRI on IDIQ task orders and is a key potential partner or competitor on large Army and NASA contracts.
• CACI International: CACI is a large federal services and IT contractor with material DoD T&E and engineering services exposure. As a broad incumbent, it competes with ASRI for larger task orders across the Army and Navy portfolios.
• Parsons Corporation: Parsons provides defense and aerospace engineering, T&E, and range services across multiple agencies. Its federal services mix and missile defense / Army presence make it a broad incumbent competitor to ASRI.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Booz Allen is a large federal services and consulting firm with growing T&E and digital engineering practices serving DoD and NASA. It represents a broad incumbent peer potentially squeezing ASRI on price and scale for larger task orders.
