Aerospace, Defense & Space Tech

## Guiding site decisions for the companies building America's aerospace and space economy.

Site decisions in aerospace, defense, and space carry higher stakes — security requirements, specialized workforce, supply-chain proximity, and timelines with no room for error. We've guided manufacturers moving from R&D into full production, and the communities working to attract them, building the roster of partners below along the way.

- Satellite & small-sat manufacturing
- Launch vehicle & propulsion systems
- Space-qualified electronics & components
- Dual-use & defense manufacturing
- MRO & sustainment facilities
- Cleared workforce & security-driven siting
