1984    Gene Waller establishes Technomics, Inc. and opens its first office in Santa Barbara, California. John Horak, a former colleague joins the company a couple of years later. Together Gene and John put the company on the map by specializing in research and development of cost estimating databases and techniques for high-value ship, air, space, and ground-based electronics systems.

2000    Rick Collins, leveraging over 20 years of independent cost estimating, evaluation, and research experience for employee-owned Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) and then the Naval Center for Cost Analysis (NCCA), opens an office in the Crystal City area of Arlington, Virginia. He and two former NCCA colleagues, who join him on day one, create a buzz that soon attracts new clients and other former colleagues looking for a better opportunity. Based on Rick's positive experience at SAIC in the 1980s, the company takes the first step to becoming employee-owned by extending ownership opportunities to high performing employees at all experience levels.

2005    Technomics grows its reputation for doing great, honest technical work and hiring talented, respected senior analysts and high potential entry level analysts with quantitatively oriented degrees and strong academic records. Our smart growth model (i.e., grow only as fast as our ability to hire good people) pays dividends in the form of new Department of Defense (DoD) and non-DoD clients (Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Office of the Secretary of Defense, and Government Accountability Office) and in new employees attracted by having an impact on a smaller organization that is committed to technical excellence as THE means to growth.

2010    Technomics takes the next step to broad-based employee ownership by establishing an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), which provides every employee an ownership stake in the form of a second retirement savings plan. This step reinforces the company's commitment to fostering a culture that motivates, retains, and attracts top talent. The company continues to grow smartly by adding talented staff at all experience levels, adding non-DoD clients (Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Department of Energy (DoE), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)), and addressing client needs in new areas (systems engineering, project management, and data visualization). The company expands efforts to improve the cost analysis community of practice via active participation in the International Cost Estimating and Analysis Association (ICEAA).

2014    In recognition of the continuing need to attract and to retain the best talent, Technomics implements a robust Career Progression Model (CPM) that provides staff the opportunity to plan for a Technomics career along either a technical or management path with a full understanding of what it means and requires to progress along the chosen path. The CPM and associated Performance Management System are well received by our employee owners who have a vested interest in owning their own careers and in growing with the company.

2015    Technomics celebrates the Arlington office's 15th anniversary and the company's 15th consecutive year of revenue, income, and stock price growth — an impressive track record, particularly in light of the increasingly competitive government professional services marketplace that adversely impacted many other companies. In recognition of this reality, Technomics, initiates an effort to deliver increasing value to its clients by creating distinctive, analytics-based service offerings that differentiate the company from the rest of the pack. Employee owners embrace this important multi-year initiative to create enduring value for our clients in the form of better decisions faster.

2017    Technomics continues to achieve tremendous success in 2017. Growing profitably for the 17th consecutive year by virtue of thoughtful business decisions, including but not limited to, shunning low price technically acceptable opportunities that our competition deemed critical to their existence in favor of discerning clients who recognize and appreciate the Technomics difference. Speaking of what distinguishes us from the rest of the pack, Technomics expands its investment in creating greater value for clients by establishing the Data Analytics and Technology Solutions (DATS) practice, which exploits the unique problem-solving qualifications of our analysts to not only perform analysis but also design and develop innovative data solutions that address other analysts’ needs. These are but two of the distinctive aspects of Technomics that contribute to the company eclipsing the 100-analyst landmark in early summer. The combination of continuing growth and commitment to employee-owner satisfaction in the form of aesthetically appealing workspace conducive to collaboration, productivity, and fun fuels a year-end move to trendy open office space with panoramic top-floor views of Washington D.C. and Arlington, Virginia.

2021    Micheal Lionais, leading Technomics expansion into Canada, brings three decades of distinguished experience in the Canadian government finance sector, including 20 years of military service. He is known for pioneering a government-wide cost estimating capability, including the conception of a cost estimating policy framework for the Government of Canada. Michael's extensive responsibilities also encompassed the rigorous challenge of all high-risk departmental cost estimates prior to their presentation to Cabinet. This expansion is being undertaken with colleagues Thomas Harless, who has led National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS) 3rd Party Expert Assessment (3PEA) services and Peter Weltman, former Financial Accountability Officer (FAO) of Ontario and current board member of Peel Transition Board. Technomics Canada Consulting ULC is incorporated in 2024.

2024    Technomics continues its expansion opening an office in Albuquerque, New Mexico to service its growing client base.
