Who are we:

Sonalysts, Inc. is a small, 100% employee owned (ESOP) business, which supports a very diverse set of customers. While the company was originally founded in 1973 with a focus on sonar analysis (hence the name) for the Navy, Sonalysts has since expanded into a variety of other Defense and Commercial spaces.  With current contracts supporting the Navy, Air Force, and Army and many other customers, Sonalysts relies on the skills and knowledge of its employee owners to help solve the Department of Defense’s most challenging problems while providing the best benefit to our customers.  Ranging from retired service members from all branches of the military, to professionals with a wide mix of different commercial and technical backgrounds, Sonalysts has a diverse and capable workforce.  From software development, to operations analysis, engineering, wargaming, targeted knowledge elicitation, or large group facilitation – Sonalysts is capable of meeting any challenge.

By utilizing a small central corporate structure, coupled with a largely de-centralized approach to project management, Sonalysts is competitive with larger Defense Contractors while remaining agile and entrepreneurial at heart to provide rapid and innovative responses to customer requests. This allows our employee-owners to both lead or support existing projects and to get involved with developing new business and winning new work.  If you are looking for a way to use your technical or operational knowledge to support solving challenging problems for the military while being afforded the flexibility and empowerment of being a contractor or potential future leader in a small business, then Sonalysts may be the place for you.
