ROME — NYSTEC in mid-October formally opened its new corporate headquarters at 99 Otis St. at Griffiss Business and Technology Park. NYSTEC executives, partners in government, and community members gathered to formally cut the ribbon and open the facility.
The 32,110-square-foot building includes 16,779 square feet of space leased to NYSTEC, with the rest of the building leased to Booz Allen Hamilton, according to a Mohawk Valley EDGE news release.
NYSTEC announced this past year that it would collaborate with Griffiss Local Development Corporation (GLDC) to allow for further expansion and increased employment at Griffiss Park. The company, which expects to double its Rome–based employment over the next three years, had outgrown its previous corporate headquarters.
NYSTEC employs more than 185 data scientists, network engineers, cybersecurity experts, business-transformation consultants, and internal-service specialists across New York state, per the release. In addition, NYSTEC regularly supplements its core employees with diverse and small-business suppliers, working with nearly 70 New York state technology companies.
The construction of the two-story building cost more than $8.5 million. NYSTEC’s new corporate headquarters is located at the southwest corner of Hangar Road at the Otis Street intersection, next to the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). The building is owned by 99 Otis Street, LLC (a subsidiary of GLDC and NYSTEC), which had purchased a five-acre land parcel from GLDC, the developer of the facility.
Empire State Development provided a $1.1 million grant to GLDC to support this job-creating project. New York State also supported the project with military base redevelopment funds.
