ATC ATTENDS SMARTPROC’S 25TH CONFERENCE IN FREDERICK, MARYLAND
WINTER 2024
December 9-10th, 2025 was a noteworthy occasion for ATC as our corporate staff Intisar Abbasi, John Sparks, Luanne Houck, Amy Reaux, Leila Abbasi and Shannon Houck attended SmartProc Govcon’s 25th Conference at the Clarion Inn in Frederick, MD. The two days were packed full of opportunistic networking and engaging conversations amongst small government businesses, industry leaders and academics amongst state, federal and local government sectors.
Since 1999, the membership organization SMART, has been hosting SmartProc (Govcon) with the goal to strengthen relationships, promote team partnerships and enhance business development amongst fifteen fields such as defense, healthcare and cyber/IT.
ATC was a Gold Sponsor, including a table in the front of the conference venue and advertising in conference brochures. Although the conference was smaller than in previous years, we had many productive conversations with new and familiar organizations and businesses. The conference benefitted ATC immensely as it educated us on new developments and research within the health, AI, defense and transportation realms through the breakout sessions. These sessions included a plethora of intelligent and highly-skilled speakers, such as our corporate staff member, John Sparks, who moderated the Small Business Opportunities discussion.
SmartProc has always been a wonderful opportunity for ATC to gain additional information about the industries we collaborate with as well as chances to connect with new partners and potential customer organizations. Overall, SmartProc always leaves us feeling optimistic for a future full of growth and success.

SUMMER 2024
The Military Health System Research Symposium (MHSRS) that took place August 26th—August 29th at the Gaylords Palm Resort in Kissimmee, Florida was an excellent opportunity for the DoD to present new scientific knowledge collected and educate on a wide range of topics regarding military health.

ATC EMPLOYEES BEAT THE “WINTER BLUES”
WINTER 2022
The ongoing pandemic, social isolation due to remote working, and continuing onslaught of “bad news” has made this winter an even more challenging season to endure. The winter months not only leave us deficient of Vitamin D from natural sunlight, but also deprive us of high energy and enthusiasm in the workplace. Some people find themselves affected by ‘Seasonal Affective Disorder’ (or SAD – literally), during the colder months and shorter days of the year. ATC leadership recommends the following steps to fight “SADness”:
1. Make sure that workspaces, whether in the office or at home, have plenty of natural light near windows; use ‘natural’ yellow-based lighting indoors rather than harsh white lightbulbs.
2. Get your blood flowing by taking regular breaks to walk around and stretch; go outside even in cold weather to get some fresh air and embrace the sunlight – this will refresh not only your body, but your brain and spirit.
3. Eat colorful and nutritious food, swapping the junk food at your desk with healthy snacks such as fruits, nuts, and cut vegetables. Recognize that junk food can ‘clog’ your mind and only provides empty calories that drain you of your energy.
4. Connect with co-workers and clients by picking up the phone and having conversations; learn to look forward to the TEAMS meetings that keep your thoughts flowing and improve your concentration and creativity. Stay focused on the importance of your customer’s mission.
If your winter blues is affecting you in a more serious way, please reach out to your healthcare provider. For other tips on combating Seasonal Affective Disorder, go to https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/seasonal-affective-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20364651
ATC REVIEWS QUALITY POLICY AT 2021 HOLIDAY EVENT

In order to achieve this, we provide an environment that is respectful, courteous, flexible, and promotes efficiency. As a commitment to quality we:
1. Provide the resources for employees to engage in tasks that successfully meet the requirements of our customers.
2. Treat our customers as trusted partners so they view our services as value-added.
3. Provide training to improve the knowledge base and skill set of employees in order for them to excel in all customer and company
interactions.
4. Foster teamwork in order to strengthen relationships and develop confidence in individual and group abilities.
ATC leadership expects that all employees will comply with the established Quality Management System with the goal of improving the organization and achieving quality services to our customers. To ensure that the ATC quality policy is successfully implemented, all employees are responsible for understanding and applying the quality policy in the performance of their tasks.
ATC CELEBRATES 20 YEAR ANNIVERSARY
SUMMER 2021
In 2001, we took the risk of forming our own consulting and services corporation. As retired Army officers, our vision was to deliver exceptional services to support the military medical research, development, and acquisition (RDA) mission. We focused on what we knew best – project management and regulatory affairs support for battlefield military medical RDA programs both overseas and in the continental United States. Throughout the years, ATC has evolved into a dedicated professional services company focusing on collaboration, hard work, and success in four proficiency areas: Program Management; Technical & Scientific Services; Cybersecurity & IT; and Operations, Logistics, & Lifecycle Management. As we celebrate our 20th year, we thank our employees, clients, and partners for helping us grow as we all work together to serve our ultimate customer – the uniformed service members and their families.
With great appreciation, Intisar Abbasi and Dale Vander Hamm

They were able to plan and execute several successful “virtual networking” opportunities. Sponsors of the event included LMI and UnityTec, each having a table with corporation information.

Virtual PDU’s can be Cost Effective
SPRING 2020
ATC has been taking advantage of remote working and stay-at-home time for employees by encouraging on-line learning. Although in-person adult education is valuable for the social networking connections made, classroom formats can be expensive and time consuming. Typically instructors must charge fees that include facility rental space as well as meals and refreshments. Students also must commute to various locations and in many cases, pay for parking. During the time of COVID restrictions, ATC employees have been taking excellent on-line classes with Pritchard Management Associates for only $20 for 2-hour sessions each resulting in 2 Professional Development Units (PDUs). Our employees who hold Project Management Professional (PMP) certifications must complete 60 PDUs every 3 years. The various topics have included “Sharing Risks and Other Good News”, “Where’s Maslow? Self-Actualization”, “Agile – Not Just for PMs Anymore”, and other interesting and informative topics. We highly recommend Carl Pritchard and would like to share his company website at www.carlpritchard.com
What is this New Normal?
APRIL 2020
As we face this unexpected turn of medical and economic events in 2020, we are all pulling together to work toward our new normal.

ATC is very grateful for our ability to maintain the support we are providing to the medical research, development and acquisition (RDA) activities for the US Army Medical Research and Development Command, its subordinate activities and the Warfighter as we remain flexible and responsive to facilitate the military medical RDA activities to address the Covid-19 disease.
When and where possible, ATC makes a practice of supporting our local small businesses. We encourage our staff and others to look into those small businesses still open and support them while practicing social distancing. We also want to extend our Extreme gratitude to the integral parts of our community and the world for the essential business providers, our grocery staff and delivery workers, the healthcare staff at all our hospitals, nursing homes, private care givers, our hospital sanitary teams, and the teachers everywhere who have stepped up to continue teaching our younger generations in new ways.
ATC is proud to be a part of the Frederick County Community, and we cannot wait until we are able to step out again, and we encourage everyone to hold strong.
