A-TEK Innovation Lab (A-LABS™)

A Secure Digital Sandbox for Innovation Incubation and Exploring the Art of the Possible

Delivering “Solutions That Matter” lets us shift your innovation and modernization into high gear and prepare for the next wave of tech evolution. A-LABS™ serves as an innovation sandbox to build, test, and demonstrate capabilities for our customers, and houses some of our own internal innovations. Whether piloting AI-driven analytics, accelerating cloud adoption, or enhancing cybersecurity models, A-LABS™ helps agencies move from concept to deployment with confidence.

A-LABS™: A Secure AWS Sandbox to Pilot Applications, Practice Skills, and Collaborate

A-LABS™ lets our team showcase its technical prowess. Powered by AWS, the innovation lab offers a safe place to test new ideas and accelerate the digital transformation journey.

Try Out New Ideas and Demo Conceptual Solutions to Customers

A-LABS™ provides a controlled, disruption-free environment for A-TEK teams to build, test, and refine applications. It also serves as a live demonstration hub—allowing federal agencies to visualize DigitalShiftTM innovations in action, from AI-powered automation to Zero Trust security frameworks.

Access GitHub to Consolidate and Manage Code

With integrated GitHub access, A-LABS™ streamlines Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) development—allowing teams to rapidly prototype and deploy branded solutions for federal agencies. By consolidating workflows, tracking changes, and enabling seamless collaboration, A-LABS™ accelerates digital development cycles while ensuring code integrity. More than just a coding environment, A-LABS™ bridges the gap between technology and program management goals, enabling agencies to align IT innovation with mission priorities for greater operational impact.

Pilot GenAI Securely and Responsibility

GenAI presents unprecedented opportunities—and risks—for federal agencies. A-LABS™ provides a controlled environment to develop, test, and validate AI models, ensuring they meet ethical, security, and compliance standards before deployment. From AI-driven knowledge management to predictive analytics, we transform emerging AI capabilities into mission-ready solutions. A-LABS™ enables secure AI experimentation, helping agencies refine, govern, and deploy AI solutions with confidence. We develop, test, and validate AI-powered tools—then scale them into real-world architectures, solution blueprints, and AWS marketplace offerings.

Build Up Skills and Pilot Customer Solutions

A-LABS™ isn’t just a testing ground—it’s a learning hub. As part of A-TEK’s workforce development initiatives, the sandbox provides hands-on training in cloud architecture, cybersecurity, AI integration, and more. Whether for on-contract projects or professional upskilling, A-LABS™ ensures our teams stay ahead of the technology curve.

Testing What's Possible with A-LABS™

A-LABS™ is the bridge between concept and execution—providing federal agencies a secure environment to test, refine, and validate emerging technologies before full-scale deployment. Whether piloting GenAI, advancing Zero Trust, or accelerating Software 2.0 adoption, A-LABS™ transforms bold ideas into mission-ready solutions—so your agency doesn’t just keep up, but leads the way.
