ABOUT AHTNA

Ahtna Solutions provides environmental consulting, engineering, and geomatics.

We have the qualifications, expertise, and capacity to provide a wide range of service to our government and commercial clients—both as a contractor and a consultant; in the office and in the field; and in all phases of environmental and construction work.

While some firms specialize in field operations and others on consulting, Ahtna Solutions offers our clients a one-stop shop. Being both contractor and consultant, we provide our clients with comprehensive, cohesive, and cost-effective solutions that ensure that the science/engineering and field operations work together to achieve your goals.

Our professionals have built a reputation for taking on and delivering—without exception—some of the most technically complex projects. We operate as effectively in highly remote and austere locations as we do in dense, urban landscapes. The truth is we enjoy doing the hardest, most complex, and “dirty” jobs that others shy away from. Our experience allows us to identify the critical path to safely achieve project goals.

These proven capabilities set us apart in the marketplace and ensure the best value and enduring technical and managerial solutions for our clients.

Ahtna's ability to deliver best-value stems from our knack in building strong teams.

We evaluate the expertise needed to accomplish our mission, goal, and objectives. We then identify astute, knowledgeable, and skilled professionals with a strong safety ethic to form a team with complementary talents. This approach allows our staff to focus on value-added activities such as creating a winning strategy, partnering with customers, and identifying innovative approaches to achieving client goals. We continuously nurture individual strengths to further build upon and retain a robust team that consistently delivers best-value to our customers, while helping our staff to achieve individual career goals.

An important part of Ahtna’s team culture is cross-training our staff. Cross-training minimizes performance risk, increases safety awareness, and ensures our ability to remain flexible, overcome any challenges, and deliver positive results for our clients.

At Ahtna Solutions, we take pride in our staff expertise in complex logistics and safety. Whether working in the remote corners of Alaska where extreme weather and lack of infrastructure present significant challenges, or in dense urban areas that require working in proximity to residential areas, our teams have the expertise to effectively deliver on time and on budget.

Ahtna Solutions specializes in safely performing work with complex logistics and challenging site conditions including:

• Remote, austere, arctic conditions that require chartered planes, helicopters, and barges to move people and materials in a time-sensitive shortened field season
• Highly visible public and residential sites throughout the United States that require rigorous stakeholder and community relations efforts

Ahtna has a proven track record in safely and successfully completing projects. This is demonstrated by our 90-percent repeat business rate and continued annual growth in revenues. Ahtna’s commitment to world-class safety performance is reflected in our three years of Days Away, Restrictions, Transfers Rate (DART) statistics for our operations.  In 2019, Ahtna maintained a 0.9 DART rate well below the industry average of 1.5. Additionally, our Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) has also tracked far below the industry average.

Ahtna’s culture of safety permeates every construction and environmental task we perform as proven by our low 2019 Experience Modification Rate (EMR) of 0.59 (well below the industry average of 1.0). The firm has maintained a below-industry-average EMR for the past five years. Because EMRs are calculated under one common owner (Ahtna, Inc.), this excellent EMR applies to all Ahtna subsidiaries.

Ahtna provides our clients with a strong work ethic, outstanding service, and the responsiveness of a dynamic self-performing business. Over the years, we have built a government-proven infrastructure to minimize performance risk and maximize cost-effectiveness during project execution.
