ajw hero team

Our team has worked with and advised Presidents, members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Energy, and other federal agencies. We have also worked with Governors, Mayors, Legislators, and the entities overseeing air regulation, energy, and utilities in California, New York, and other states.

AJW partners have long experience in their specific areas of expertise, and networks of relationships throughout government developed over decades.

We are expert business strategists, policy advocates, technical experts, proposal and project managers, volume leads, technical writers, and communications professionals who work closely with client counterparts to develop compelling responses to government funding opportunities and policies and regulations that ensure compliance as well as effective solutions.

We work alongside our clients, adding our expertise in support of theirs, ensuring effectiveness at all levels from vision, mission, and planning to the most technical details important to growth.
