KSA Integration Launches Redesigned Website

Posted on May 22, 2026June 2, 2026 by Bryan Altmire

WASHINGTON, D.C. — KSA Integration, LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) supporting the defense enterprise for more than 15 years, today announced the launch of its fully redesigned website at www.ksaintegration.com. The new site is organized around a single mission: Empowering the Warrior — from active duty service through veteran care. The redesigned platform reflects the evolution of KSA’s two core portfolios — Warrior Readiness and Warrior Care — and the company’s commitment to delivering mission-critical support across the full life cycle of military service. With a team that is more than 90 percent veterans and military family members, KSA connects every capability back to the warfighter.

Warrior Readiness

KSA’s Warrior Readiness portfolio prepares warfighters to fight, adapt, and win in contested environments. Through strategic assessments, acquisition support, and data analytics and AI/ML integration, KSA sharpens decisions before contact and accelerates the fielding of capabilities warriors depend on — supporting organizations across the U.S. Marine Corps, Joint Force, Department of Homeland Security, and NATO.

Warrior Care

When warriors transition from active duty, KSA’s Warrior Care portfolio stands with them and their families through recovery, reintegration, and the long journey home. Services include 24/7/365 Wounded Warrior call center operations, behavioral health counseling, adaptive sports and reconditioning programs, and veteran retreat management — serving more than 30,000 warriors and their families.

Leadership Perspective

“Everything we do connects back to the warfighter. During active duty, we sharpen the tools and decisions that keep them ready. When they transition, we stand with them through recovery and what comes next. This website tells that story for the first time in a way that truly reflects the depth and purpose of the work.” — Bryan Altmire, Chief Executive Officer, KSA Integration LLC

This new platform reflects 15 years of growth — from a small team with a big idea to a company trusted across the Marine Corps, Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, DHS, Joint Force, NATO, and Veterans Affairs. The mission hasn’t changed. The scale has.” — LtGen Keith Stalder, USMC (ret) & President, KSA Integration LLC

KSA Integration Attends Modern Day Marine 2026

Posted on May 16, 2026June 2, 2026 by Bryan Altmire

Washington, D.C. | May 07, 2026

KSA Integration was proud to participate in Modern Day Marine 2026 in Washington, D.C., where this year’s theme, “From American Shores: 250 Years of Fighting Forward,” highlighted both the legacy and future of the Marine Corps. From April 28-30, our team engaged deeply with Marine Corps leadership, industry partners, and the broader defense community to better understand the evolving operational and acquisition landscape.

This year’s event underscored a clear shift in how the Marine Corps is approaching modernization. Leaders emphasized speed, adaptability, and outcomes over traditional, process-heavy acquisition models. The formation of the new Portfolio Acquisition Executive, Marine Corps (PAE MC) signals a more integrated, mission-driven acquisition enterprise, one that aligns closely with KSA Integration’s strengths in mission engineering, data analytics, AI innovation, and strategic advisory support.

The event also highlighted the increasing urgency of countering emerging threats, particularly in the unmanned systems and air defense space. Senior leaders pointed to the rapid proliferation of low-cost, high-impact technologies and the need for integrated, scalable solutions. KSA’s ongoing work in strategic and tactical threat assessments and capability development positions us to support these evolving mission needs.

As the Marine Corps continues to evolve to meet future challenges, KSA Integration remains committed to delivering the insight, rigor, and innovation needed to bridge strategy and execution, supporting those who serve on the front lines.
