ATA Engineering, Inc. is an employee-owned engineering consulting firm established in 2000 following the purchase of assets and contracts from the Advanced Test and Analysis Division of Structural Dynamics Research Corporation (SDRC). Headquartered in San Diego, California, the company operates regional facilities in Albuquerque, Boston, Denver, Huntsville, Los Angeles, Madison, Oakland, and Washington, D.C.

ATA Engineering specializes in test- and analysis-driven design solutions across mechanical, aerospace, and structural disciplines. The firm applies advanced computer-aided engineering (CAE) methods to develop and evaluate structures and mechanical assemblies exposed to severe static, dynamic, and thermal loads.

The company maintains a 50,000-square-foot corporate headquarters equipped with a 4,500-square-foot dynamic and modal testing laboratory and a 4,200-square-foot prototype lab and machine shop dedicated to assembly, fabrication, and robotics testing.
