HistoryThe corporation was originally established to support the Air Force, which needed a technically qualified unbiased organization close to the Pentagon that could rapidly provide analysis for identified and evolving mission requirements. Shortly after it was established, ANSER became a Federal Contract Research Center (FCRC), one of nine such organizations including RAND, Aerospace, MITRE, CNA, and Lincoln Laboratory. As an FCRC, the corporation was bound to serve a single client by way of the Air Force Director of Development Planning, later reorganized as the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition.SpecialtiesANSER is a public service research institute organized as not-for-profit corporation dedicated to informing decisions that shape the nation's future.
