Precise Earns VETS Indexes 5 Star Employer Award for 2026
Lexington Park, Maryland — May 1, 2026 — Precise Systems has been recognized as a 5 Star Employer in the 2026 VETS Indexes Employer Awards — in recognition of the organization’s strong commitment to recruiting, hiring, retaining, developing, and supporting veterans and the military-connected community, VETS Indexes announced earlier this week.
“Precise Systems has demonstrated meaningful and measurable support for veterans and the military-connected community through its commitment to building opportunities for those who served,” said Nicholas Antaki, President of VETS Indexes. “As we launch our new awards platform and enhanced survey experience in 2026, we are making it easier than ever for organizations to showcase their veteran employment initiatives and benchmark their progress. Employers like Precise Systems continue to set the standard and help drive the future of veteran employment forward.”
VETS Indexes recognized participating organizations across the following award levels: 5 Star Employer, 4 Star Employer, 3 Star Employer, and Recognized Employer. Not every responding organization received an award — only those that demonstrated a strong commitment to veterans, members of the National Guard and Reserves, and military spouses. Awards were announced at the Employing U.S. Vets Conference held at the New York Athletic Club.
Participating organizations included companies large and small, government agencies and departments, nonprofit organizations, colleges, and universities, all working to strengthen employment opportunities and support systems for the military-connected community.
As the most objective and comprehensive evaluation of veteran employers, the VETS Indexes Employer Awards program has set a new standard in veteran employment data. VETS Indexes and its Employer Awards have been featured on CNBC, Fox Business and BNN Bloomberg, as well as military-specific outlets, including Military.com, Military Times and Stars & Stripes.
This in-depth survey and recognition program analyzes employers’ policies, practices, and outcomes in detail, across the following 5 categories:
- Veteran job candidate recruiting and hiring
- Veteran employee development and retention
- Veteran-inclusive policies and culture
- Support for members of the National Guard and Reserves
- Military spouse/family support
