Schafer’s contributions are focused in three major thrust areas:

Our Heritage

Created in 1972, Schafer Corporation began as a specialist in challenging and advanced technology development for government and industry, focusing on directed energy and electro-optics. The strength of our reputation was built on the technical excellence, dedication and teamwork of our personnel. These traits have been just as important as we have grown and expanded into a more technologically diverse company.

Today, we also provide innovative engineering and technology to the military, intelligence, DHS, NASA, new commercial space companies and other industries. We’re engaged in complex, high-level missions and programs, guiding efforts such as development, modeling, simulation, communication and technology management.

Our personnel frequently lead assessment teams and studies for government clients because of their in-depth expertise and independence of thought. They are known for providing effective and actionable recommendations to sponsors.

Schafer became an employee owned company in 1996, building to over 500 employees through organic growth and select acquisitions. Today, it is a subsidiary of Metalmark Capital Partners. We continue to grow and expand our capabilities, including information technology, cyber, robotics, network communication and emerging technologies.

Schafer’s Mobility Solutions Sector (Asynchrony) is focused on application development, mobile computing, systems and sensor integration, enterprise architecture, and tactical collaboration. Asynchrony delivers solutions ranging from back-end government middleware to front-end applications and full-scale, commercial Cloud infrastructures. Asynchrony is comprised of highly-motivated experts focused on developing well-designed, usable software backed by hard-core tech and engineering whose mission is to create high-impact software solutions.

Our capabilities are comprised of:

MOBILITY SOLUTIONS

Mobility

The main challenge for enterprises is to simply figure out how to integrate mobile devices into their current business processes and IT systems. Asynchrony helps companies define and create the building blocks of their corporate mobile strategy. We then develop custom apps that securely integrate with legacy systems and business processes.

Software Development

Today’s technology and business environments change so fast that solutions created by software projects can be obsolete by the time they’re delivered. Asynchrony’s software development capabilities are driven through ongoing customer involvement that spans the entire project lifecycle. Utilizing agile software development techniques, we continuously deliver working software throughout the entire life of a project.

Architecture & Integration

Asynchrony takes an iterative approach to Enterprise Architecture, prioritized by evolving business needs and technical requirements. Instead of year-long project plans, weekly iterations allow architecture to emerge through a series of small increments. This approach results in usable architectural artifacts that are delivered rapidly and frequently.
