A-T Solutions’ Debbie Ricci Named CFO of the Year by Washington Business Journal

A-T Solutions Inc., a global, industry-leading anti- and counterterrorism firm headquartered in the Washington area, announced today that its chief financial officer, Debbie Ricci, has been named CFO of the Year by the Washington Business Journal in the category for businesses with revenue between $25 million and $250 million. Winners were announced yesterday during a luncheon held at the Omni Shoreham Hotel.

“Our team is thrilled that Debbie has been recognized for her hard work and dedication to our organization,” said Dennis Kelly, president and CEO of A-T Solutions. “We are proud of this prominent accolade she has earned. Debbie is a highly valued member of our team and has played a critical role in our organization’s success in consistently delivering outstanding solutions for our customers.”

Since Ms. Ricci joined A-T Solutions in 2010, she has played a key leadership role in helping the company continue its upward trajectory of growth and expansion into new markets. Over the past two years, A-T Solutions’ growth rate has exceeded 25 percent, and last year the company launched an international joint venture, ATOM Training, in the United Kingdom.

In 2011, the Washington Business Journal ranked A-T Solutions as number 14 on its list of the 50 Fastest Growing Companies in the Greater Washington region. To be recognized on this list, companies must submit their three-year, audited financial statements, which are then verified by the Washington Business Journal. Companies are judged on their year-over-year revenue and overall consecutive growth.
