Frontier Technology integrates system engineering and operations research methodologies with information technology solutions for its customers. The company also develops and supports customized software and provides studies and analysis for the US Department of Defense and aerospace market.

The company is growing and can choose to expand at either its California headquarters or in the Dayton region. The company is also considering moving its headquarters to the Dayton region. Jobs will be at risk if the company decides to move forward with the proposed project in California.
