I am Adam Montgomery, a student at Merrimack College in Andover, Massachusetts studying business administration with a concentration in marketing. This summer, I interned with the a.i. solutions Business Development (BD) team located in the Cape Canaveral, Florida office. The BD team and fellow employees were friendly and very welcoming. I felt like I was a valued member of the team. The internship taught me the fundamentals of pursuing contract opportunities in the highly competitive and complex federal government market. I saw firsthand how a.i. solutions implements its marketing plan, business development process, and capture management activities. I supported the BD team with improvements to the organization and presentation of internal marketing and data-management products. I also worked with the team to build a functional customer relationship management (CRM) database. In addition, I created a graphical representation of the business development process to incorporate into training materials. I also created the content for this internship social media program by interviewing and writing the articles.

My internship with a.i. solutions was a blast, and I learned so much. The opportunities I had to connect with my team and the other interns, meet the Expendable Launch Integrated Support (ELVIS) 3 team, and tour Kennedy Space Center to see some of the exciting work on this contract greatly enhanced my experience.
