2026 Virginia C-Suite Awards: JONATHAN EVANS

A Penn State graduate, Evans came up through IBM Global Business Services and Excelsior Consulting Group before joining IT government contractor B&A in 2009 as director of enterprise resource planning (ERP) delivery.

From there, Evans climbed the ranks, moving from vice president of service delivery in 2011 to president in 2015 and CEO in 2018. Under his leadership, B&A’s enterprise value reportedly climbed from roughly $60 million in 2023 to $250 million at the beginning of 2026.

In 2024, the DFW Capital Partners private equity firm purchased B&A, and Evans was instrumental in integrating B&A into its new owner. He also helped to expand the company’s capabilities in technologies such as analytics, cloud computing, software development and enterprise platforms to align with federal modernization priorities.

Additionally, Evans strengthened B&A’s competitive posture with three acquisitions: iDoxSolutions, a Maryland-based information technology and management consulting company, announced in 2023; the strategic services and solutions intelligence and defense portfolio of Chantilly-based Hexagon US Federal in 2025; and Celestar, a multidisciplinary intelligence services and solutions provider, announced in January.

In 2025, B&A won more than 20 accolades related to workplace culture and employee wellness.
