HUNTSVILLE — With a design to further support federal customers and their critical missions in national security, Peraton opened a state-of-the-art facility today.
“We are excited to officially open our new Huntsville facility, which represents a significant investment in our mission to provide top-tier services and solutions to federal agencies,” said Steve Schorer, chairman, president, and CEO. “This facility strengthens our ability to serve customers and creates an environment for innovation and collaboration. We’re proud to contribute to the local economy by bringing new opportunities to Huntsville and its skilled workforce.”
The 27,000-square-foot facility within the Redstone Gateway complex will support federal customers, including the Defense Intelligence Agency/Missile and Space Intelligence Center, US Army, FBI, Missile Defense Agency, and NASA, the company said.
“Huntsville continues to be a hub for innovation, and we’re excited to see Peraton expanding here,” U.S. Rep. Dale Strong said at the ceremony. “This new facility shows just how important Huntsville has become in supporting key federal projects. Partnerships like this help create jobs, boost our economy, and play a vital role in national security and technology advancements.”
The facility features more than 12,000 square feet of space for a Secure Compartmentalized Information Facility (SCIF).
With approximately 200 employees in the Huntsville area, Peraton is continuing to increase its presence and support its federal government customers.
“Having Peraton in Huntsville reflects the strong and vibrant economy of the city and our region,” said Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle. “We are excited to have this company expand their operations and be part of our Rocket City community.”
Madison County Commission Chairman Mac McCutchen said “Peraton’s presence underscores how the area has become known as a hub for technology and innovation in Alabama and the United States.”
The grand opening marks a significant milestone in Peraton’s continued growth in Huntsville and reinforces its commitment to supporting federal agencies with cutting-edge technologies and services, the company said.
