CHANTILLY, VA; July 11, 2023 – The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM), our nation, and our allies are facing the reality of near-peer competition challenging rules-based international order in the Pacific. This places enormous demands on USINDOPACOM to defend our homeland, deter aggression, and ensure the security and stability in the region. To advance our nation’s Asia-Pacific region peacekeeping mission, Amentum has opened an office in Honolulu on the Island of Oahu.

Amentum has over 500 employees across the Hawaiian Islands facilitating this national mission through direct support to USINDOPACOM and its component commands with numerous contracts. Localized programs include the USINDOPACOM Innovation and Experimentation Support Services Program (IPIESS), a technological and sustainment contract of the Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) in partnership with a Native Hawaiian-Owned firm, and a myriad of other activities such as intelligence analysis and aircraft maintenance.

Our new office in Aiea at 98-211 Pali Momi Street centralizes elements of our corporate leadership next door to our Hawaii-based customers and staff and will promote more local functional support. The office location also grants Amentum better efficiencies toward up-scaling presence and readiness in the Asia-Pacific region based on changing security dynamics.

“We look forward to continuing to provide innovation and experimentation efforts associated with Command, Control, Cyber, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) mission areas, advancing innovative technology and procedural solutions and capabilities for our warfighter’s most urgent mission needs,” said Jill Bruning, President of Amentum’s Engineering, Science and Technology Group.
