RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 23, 2025--

Peraton today announced its commitment to work with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in support of its air traffic control (ATC) transformation effort—delivering rapid, enhanced safety and capability to make America’s air traffic management system the envy of the world.

As airspace management faces mounting demands from increased flight volume, new unmanned systems, and outdated infrastructure, the FAA’s Brand New Air Traffic Control System (BNATCS) initiative represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform the national airspace operations on which every American in some way depends.

Peraton brings to the table a holistic approach, unhindered by a failed history of FAA supplier performance and technical bias in serving as a pure-play systems integrator. We provide unparalleled expertise, proven through the early and successful delivery of multiple high-stakes federal missions across agencies and enterprise IT solutions, all at scale.

Peraton is uniquely positioned to serve as the FAA’s Prime Integrator, delivering rapid transformation and serving as their objective partner. With Peraton Labs (formerly Bell Labs), the company brings hundreds of millions of dollars of investment in its ability to infuse the latest technologies – from artificial intelligence to complex, secure communications to cyber and big data solutions.

“The FAA’s BNATCS initiative is not just about upgrading infrastructure - it’s ultimately about propelling America into the golden age of transportation. Our mission is to increase the efficiency and security of America’s skies, with safety as our guiding light,” said Peraton’s Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer Steve Schorer. “Peraton comes to the table with fresh thinking. Our scale, technical depth, and mission-first culture is well-suited to support this transformational effort, and we are ready to partner with the FAA, and Secretary Sean Duffy to rapidly deliver a safer, smarter air traffic system that meets the needs of today and anticipates tomorrow’s demands.”

With deep domain expertise across the defense, space, and civil sectors, Peraton has earned a reputation for leading complex national programs. Its portfolio includes managing near and deep space communications, telemetry and tracking, digital twin simulations, and cyber-resilient architectures supporting the Department of War, Department of Homeland Security, and NASA missions.

From operating dozens of ground stations around the globe to deploying modular, TRACON-ready systems, Peraton’s track record of knowledge, innovation and performance is unmatched.

“The company’s innovative culture, knowledge base, commitment to long-term success, and operational readiness align with the FAA’s vision for a modern, adaptive, and secure air traffic system designed to support economic growth, public safety, and national security. We know America doesn’t have time for red tape. We move fast, and we will keep safety front and center while pushing the schedule forward. We are excited to be a part of something so integral to our nation,” said Amy Rall, president of Peraton’s Citizen Security and Public Safety Sector.
