BAE Systems announced the opening of a new office in Utah, expanding its local footprint and reinforcing continued investment in the state’s workforce, economy, and innovation ecosystem. The move reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to supporting national security missions and long-term growth in the region.

 

Located just north of Salt Lake City, the facility will serve as a hub for Intercontinental Ballistic Missile sustainment and modernization efforts, providing a state-of-the-art workspace for engineering, digital transformation, and mission operations teams. The expansion underscores BAE Systems’ long-term support for key defense activities conducted in Utah and closer collaboration with local partners.

“Utah has become a hub for innovation and talent, and this new office represents our continued investment in the people and capabilities that drive the mission forward,” said Jenn Galloway, Integration Support Contract director at BAE Systems. “Expanding here allows us to strengthen capability delivery, and ensure the U.S. maintains readiness for strategic deterrence.”



The expansion also highlights BAE Systems’ sustained commitment to Utah, where it has been recognized for the eighth consecutive year as one of The Salt Lake Tribune’s Top Workplaces based on employee feedback. The new office is expected to further drive innovation and contribute to the region’s growing defense and technology sectors.

The opening of the location was marked by a ribbon-cutting ceremony held on Wednesday, January 28, 2026. Leaders and community partners attended the event to recognize the significance of the new facility.
