The company\u2019s overall footprint in Arizona amounts to more than 840,000 square feet, supporting more than 2,000 high-tech and high-paying aerospace and defense jobs and a total payroll of more than $170 million. The new facility will create up to 500 new jobs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOrbital ATK\u2019s has a 30-year history of designing and building rockets in Chandler, Arizona. Our launch vehicles deliver commercial and government payloads into orbit, including critical supplies to the crew aboard the International Space Station. We also build missile defense interceptor and target vehicles that are critical to the nation\u2019s security. This cooperative agreement with the state of Arizona and City of Chandler helps ensure we have the room to support those vital programs for our country,\u201d Rich Straka, Orbital ATK\u2019s vice president &amp; general manager of Launch Vehicles Division, said in prepared remarks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOrbital ATK has long been an anchor on the Price Corridor and a vital contributor to Chandler&#8217;s reputation as the Innovation and Technology Hub of the Southwest. We appreciate the company&#8217;s continued faith in the City expressed through their selection of Chandler for this expansion project. We have seen a number of Chandler companies expand their workforce this past year and these new, high-level engineering jobs, will have a tremendous impact to the region as Orbital ATK continues its strong investment in Chandler,&#8221; added Chandler Mayor Jay Tibshraeny.<\/p>\n<p>Currently subject to city council approvals, the new facility will be part of the Allred Park Place along Chandler\u2019s Price Corridor, which is\u00a0home to leading edge companies focused on advanced business services, aerospace, life sciences, sustainable and high technology research and manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image via Google Maps<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new development will add 46,000 square feet to the firm&#8217;s footprint and will create up to 500 jobs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1055,"featured_media":1004160702,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21782,21748,1601,15],"tags":[32986],"class_list":["post-1004160696","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-development","category-industrial","category-phoenix","category-west","tag-allred-park-place"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
