ATK Moves Headquarters to D.C. Metro Area

Aerospace manufacturer ATK will relocate its corporate headquarters at the beginning of October to a larger facility in Arlington, Va., the company announced.

   The company said it would continue to maintain a presence at its Minnesota location, with approximately 210 Minnesota-based corporate employees. ATK employs a total of approximately 2,700 people in Minnesota and approximately 3,500 people in the Mid-Atlantic region, where it operates facilities in Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia.

   “The relocation of ATK’s headquarters to the Washington, D.C. area will provide our company with opportunities for increased engagement with our customers and Congress, as well as with our aerospace and defense industry peers that already are located in the region. Expanding our presence and visibility in the Washington area will support our strategy of creating a more global, diversified company," ATK President and CEO Mark DeYoung said.
