PAE has moved its corporate headquarters to a 71,000-square-foot space in Arlington,Va. that will house 250 employees.
“Over the past two years and with the acquisition of Defense Support Services, PAE has doubled in size and made significant investments in its business infrastructure,“ said president Michael Dignam.
“It was time to mark a new era for PAE with a new working environment. This building is customized for how our teams operate and built with the flexibility to support future growth,“ he added.

The move consolidates four previous PAE office locations in the Washington, D.C. area.
According to the company, the space has been occupied for two weeks and the character of the company is evident through the design and use of the space.
“Our mission-focused company culture is very important to how we work,“ said Dignam.
“We designed the space to be very open and conducive to collaboration across organization, and we have incorporated details that honor the origins of the company and the culture that has set it apart,“ he added.
The office includes a 19-foot timeline of the company history, a map of the world which is dotted to show the locations of the company's contracts and a main café and informal “huddle areas“ to provide ample options for formal or informal meeting spaces.
PAE began serving communities around the world more than 50 years ago and currently employs approximately 10,000 people in over 60 countries.
