What Attollo does

Attollo, LLC (doing business as Attollo Defense) is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business founded in 2016 and headquartered in New Bern, North Carolina, that delivers professional engineering, program management, research and development, and training services to U.S. Department of Defense clients. Its core service portfolio is organized into four lines: Program Management Support (integrated master planning, budgeting, risk and configuration management, performance measurement aligned to PMI/FAR standards); Engineering Services built around Model-Based Systems Engineering using SysML, AADL, and UML, rapid prototyping, and software development oriented toward speed-to-fleet delivery; Research & Development covering software-defined networking, virtualization, and advanced algorithm development in data analytics, machine learning, and signal processing; and Training Development that includes Delta Training, New Equipment Training, and formal curriculum design using adult learning and simulation methods.

The company's go-to-market is structured exclusively through federal procurement vehicles. It holds positions on GSA Multiple Award Schedule #47QRAA24D00D6 (engineering, R&D, and educational support services), the Navy's SeaPort Next Generation (SeaPortNXG) contract, and NAVAIR PSMI contract #N0042122D0076 for naval aviation weapons systems program management, technical support, and logistics. Disclosed customers are limited to Navy Commands and NAVAIR (Naval Air Systems Command), indicating concentrated exposure to Navy and Marine Corps programs. Contract types are Time and Materials, Firm Fixed Price, and Cost Plus Options, and the firm operates with 11-50 employees under a partner-led leadership structure (Guy Nelson, President & CEO; Anthony Felicio, VP of Finance; Jon Putney, VP of Technology).

Attollo also operates the DoD SkillBridge program, recruiting transitioning service members during their final 180 days of service, which doubles as a talent pipeline and a vehicle for credibility with military customers. Revenue, funding history, and financial performance are not publicly disclosed.

Core offering

Attollo Defense delivers professional services to Department of Defense clients across four core service areas: Program Management Support, Engineering Services (including Model-Based Systems Engineering and rapid prototyping), Research & Development (software-defined networking, virtualization, advanced algorithms), and Training Development (Delta Training, New Equipment Training, simulation-based training). Services are delivered through established government contract vehicles (GSA MAS, SeaPortNXG, NAVAIR PSMI) to Navy, Marine Corps, and Naval Aviation programs.

Product overview

Attollo Defense offers a portfolio of professional services for defense and government clients, organized around four core service areas: Program Management Support, Engineering Services, Research & Development, and Training Development. These services are delivered through multiple contract vehicles including GSA MAS, SeaPortNXG, and NAVAIR PSMI. The company bridges the gap between R&D, testing, and deployment, enabling warfighters to capitalize on emerging technologies. The overall offering is a service-based model rather than a single unified product, with each service area available as standalone offerings or integrated solutions based on client needs.
